Located near Ouarzazate, the Noor Solar Complex is one of the largest hybrid renewable plants in the world, combining concentrated solar power (CSP) with massive photovoltaic fields. Together they produce more than 500 MW of clean electricity, reducing carbon emissions by nearly a million tons annually.

CSP uses parabolic mirrors to capture and store heat in molten salt tanks, allowing turbines to generate electricity long after sunset. This storage capacity makes Noor a 24-hour renewable facility — a key breakthrough for energy-hungry regions.

Beyond its technical achievement, Noor is transforming Morocco’s economy and workforce. Thousands of local jobs were created during construction, and new training centers equip engineers to operate and maintain next-generation solar technology.

Environmental safeguards were built into every phase of the project: minimal-water mirror cleaning systems, biodiversity offsets, and community programs supporting education and infrastructure.

Noor is more than a solar plant — it’s a symbol of what developing nations can achieve through strategic investment and renewable vision. From desert sunlight to urban power, it embodies the future of energy independence.
