Company Profile
Key Developments
10.5GW wind + solar + 22.5GWh battery storage in Morocco's Guelmim-Oued Noun. 4,000km HVDC cable to UK grid. TotalEnergies, GE Vernova and AFC as strategic investors. Feasibility studies advancing. UK government CfD support discussions ongoing.
Key Risks
No FID. $17bn capital requirement. 4,000km subsea cable has no precedent at this scale. UK government CfD support is the bankability key.
What Happens Next
UK government support agreement — the event that makes the project bankable.
