Inbound FDI rose by 52 percent in 2021 to $2.2 billion, vice $1.7 billion in 2020 and 2019 and a 2018 peak of $3.6 billion. France, the United Arab Emirates, and Spain hold a majority of FDI stocks. Manufacturing attracted the highest share of FDI stocks
Marine energy not yet well deserved to produce energy in Africa. In this potential study, we focus to locate suitable sites for seawater pumped storage systems in Morocco. The results were promising with high energy storage potentials. For medium hydropower storage plants, 11 sites were selected and for very high heights, 4 sites were
US company Quantum Scape and UK energy storage developer and system integrator Zenobe Energy also feature in the top five funding recipients. Debt and public market financing for battery storage companies was reported to have risen significantly from US$1.1bn across ten deals in 2019 to US$5 bn in 22 deals in 2020.

Xlinks – the company behind the Morocco-UK Power Project – said the project is capable of generating for an average of 20+ hours a day, taking advantage of the high solar
To ensure a sustainable energy strategy in Morocco, the implementation of energy storage solutions adapted to the Moroccan context is essential. As well as
Temperatures can be hottest during these times, and people who work daytime hours get home and begin using electricity to cool their homes, cook, and run appliances. Storage helps solar contribute to the electricity supply even when the sun isn''t shining. It can also help smooth out variations in how solar energy flows on the grid.
The Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Energy (MASEN) has published the results of the pre-qualifications for the construction of the 400 MW Noor Midelt III solar photovoltaic park. At least three Moroccan companies are in the running, alongside multinationals specialising in renewable energy.
