Western Sahara Resource Watch has today launched a report detailing how Morocco intends to build over 1000 MW (megawatts) of renewable energy plants in Western Sahara, a territory that Morocco partially occupies..
Despite the ongoing territorial disputes, the area holds significant potential for renewable energy development, particularly in the form of solar and wind power. With an arid climate, vast open spaces, and abundant sunshine, Western Sahara presents an ideal setting for harnessing these renewable energy sources..
Researchers imagine it might be possible to transform the world’s largest desert, the Sahara, into a giant solar farm, capable of meeting four times the world’s current energy demand..
From the evidence we have seen, it is clear that utilizing the energy of the Sahara is an incredibly difficult challenge. The issue of Western consortiums developing solar plants in the Sahara includes elements of exploitation and neo-colonialism. Hence, it is much more feasible for African nations to develop solar plants in the Sahara..
The initial stages of another renewable energy project has been launched in the disputed Western Sahara region, which is under the control of Morocco. The Janassim project recently launched its measuring campaign of solar and wind energy potential. [pdf]
