6 FAQs about [The foundation stone of the new energy battery project in the Sahara Arab Democratic Republic has been laid]

Is the Sahara a potential battery for Europe?

The Sahara has long been viewed as a potential battery for Europe, using CSP. In 2013, the €400bn Desertec project collapsed after the two advocates, Desertec Foundation and the Desertec Industrial Initiative, fell out, each accusing the other of poor communication. TuNur believes that now is the time for solar in the Sahara to finally take off.

Why is the EIB backing the Ouarzazate solar power station?

Have you read? The EIB is the European Union’s infrastructure investment arm and its backing of the Ouarzazate Solar Power Station project, which by some estimates represents up to 60% of its value, reflects hopes in both Morocco and the EU that the power will flow beyond Morocco’s borders.

Why is the Sahara's solar potential not realised?

But the Sahara’s solar potential is yet to be realised, with only the Noor project in Morocco currently operating in the area. There are a number of reasons for this, including political instability in the MENA region putting off potential investors.

Does Morocco need a solar power station?

Morocco plans to generate 42% of its energy from renewables by 2020, rising to 52% by 2030, with solar, wind and hydropower each providing a third of the total. The new Ouarzazate Solar Power Station will help Morocco meet its renewable power targets. Image: Solar Business Hub The country is well on its way to achieving that goal.

How much does Sahara solar cost?

The first stage of Sahara solar will see a 250MW CSP tower constructed, along with a dedicated transmission line through the Mediterranean Sea to Malta. This phase is estimated to cost €85m, and a further €1.6bn for the cable link. As such, the cost of power is expected to be 8.73 cents per kilowatt hour (c/kWh).

Could solar power the Great Saharan desert?

The Great Saharan Desert is more than 3.6 million square miles of dry, hot land, 1.2% of which could power the whole world, theoretically, if it were to be covered in solar PV. But the Sahara’s solar potential is yet to be realised, with only the Noor project in Morocco currently operating in the area.
