Ecoprogetti Expands Morocco’s Solar Industry

Key Figures & Findings:
Ecoprogetti, an Italian manufacturer specializing in the design and manufacture of photovoltaic (PV) production equipment, has enabled Almaden Maroc, North Africa’s largest solar module producer, to double its solar panel production capacity in Al-Hoceima, Morocco, from 500 MW to 1 GW. This expansion reflects their shared commitment to advancing solar energy production by ensuring the availability of high-efficiency solar panels and enhancing Morocco’s commitment to renewable energy.

Statistics & Insights:
The enhanced production line represents a significant investment, potentially producing enough solar modules to power over 1.2 million homes annually. Also, the upgraded facility incorporates G12 18BB (TOPCon) cell technology, ensuring maximum efficiency and superior quality in solar modules. 

Future Implications:
By 2025, Almaden Maroc’s expanded capacity could enable Morocco to increase its exports of high-efficiency solar modules to both African and global markets. This development might also support regional energy strategies, potentially fostering partnerships and further investment in sustainable energy initiatives.
