On May 20, 2025, the Masen Agency announced a new pilot project called the “Morocco Energy Storage Testbed Project,” validated by the World Bank. Deployed at the iconic Noor Ouarzazate site, this program aims to experiment with different technological storage solutions to improve grid flexibility. [pdf]
Ouarzazate Solar Power Station (OSPS), also called Noor Power Station (نور, for ) is a solar power complex and auxiliary diesel fuel system located in the region in , 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from town, in Ghessat rural council area. At 510 MW, it is the world's largest (CSP) plant. With an additional 72 MW To support the expansion of renewable energy in Morocco, one of the countries pursuing some of the most ambitious renewable energy targets, VINCI Construction worked as part of a consortium between 2018 and 2023 to build a pumped storage power plant (PSP) near the Abdelmoumen dam, 70 km from Agadir.

A typical system consists of a flywheel supported by connected to a . The flywheel and sometimes motor–generator may be enclosed in a to reduce friction and energy loss. First-generation flywheel energy-storage systems use a large flywheel rotating on mechanical bearings. Newer systems use composite Although flywheel energy storage for static UPS systems is often thought to be a green technology, a lifecycle carbon footprint analysis shows that emissions for flywheel systems can be greater in the long run than for equivalent battery-based systems, according to White Paper 209 from Schneider Electric.

Swedish innovators aren’t resting: Floating PV Arrays: Testing solar panels that melt ice on lakes to boost hydropower. Cryogenic Storage: Storing energy as liquid air at -196°C (colder than a winter in Luleå). Blockchain Trading: Farmers selling solar shares via an app called PowerPeas. [pdf]
The Sino-Moroccan joint venture COBCO has begun manufacturing essential lithium-ion battery components at its Jorf Lasfar plant, targeting a final annual capacity of 70 GWh, enough to equip one million electric vehicles. [pdf]
Each project will consist of 400MWp of photovoltaic modules and a 230MW/2-hour energy storage system. This design enables the stations to store surplus electricity during the day and supply power continuously during peak hours or at night, thus overcoming the intermittent nature of solar energy.
