The British government has revealed the launch of a general consultation linked to the evaluation of the transversal environmental impact of the “Excel” electrical connection project, which aims to deliver Morocco to the United Kingdom via a sea cable which extends more than 3,800 km.
Transfer electricity
The public consultation will continue from March 6 to April 17, 2025, because citizens and stakeholders will be available to take their grades on the environmental impact of this huge project.
These notes will be taken into account before making the final decision later this year.
The project, led by Xlinks 1 Limited, seeks to transmit renewable electricity in southern Morocco to British Electrical Network, in a decision that can represent a significant transformation in the renewable energy sector at regional and international levels.
Marine cables
The project depends on the establishment of an enormous energy complex in the region named Guelmim Wadi in the south of Morocco, which extends over 1,500 square kilometers, and includes solar energy and wind energy stations, in addition to a battery storage system with a large capacity.
The project aims to produce 11.5 GW of electricity, of which 3.6 GW will be transferred continuously to the United Kingdom via four marine cables operating with a high-voltage direct current system (HVDC).
Energy needs
With an investment cost varying between 22 and 24 billion pounds, the project will be able to meet around 8% of energy needs in the United Kingdom, with low carbon electricity to be provided for around 7 million houses.
It will also help improve energy security in the United Kingdom and constitute an important step towards achieving its objectives in reducing carbon emissions.
