Morocco Casablanca Hybrid Energy Storage Project

3 FAQs about [Morocco Casablanca Hybrid Energy Storage Project]

Is Moroccan project the first hybrid solar project with CSP?

The Moroccan project marks the first time that the PV in a hybrid solar project with CSP will also charge the thermal energy storage incorporated in the CSP power block.

What is Morocco's first solar project?

Morocco’s 800 MW solar hybrid project at Midelt will be the first solar project in the world to include thermal (heat) storage of PV (Photovoltaic) as well as CSP (Concentrated Solar Power). Midelt’s first-of-a-kind hybrid solar and shared storage project will deliver dispatchable solar at 7 cents per kWh.

Should Morocco co-locate PV and CSP and share CSP thermal storage?

This idea of colocating PV and CSP and sharing the CSP thermal storage is one that Schmitz believes will be widely applicable as energy grids become more saturated with renewables, not just Morocco’s, and as therefor more regulators move from lowest cost to “best fit” procurement.
