Green Hydrogen: Morocco explores underground storage in salt
To support its development in renewable energies, Morocco is studying the possibility of using underground saline cavities as a storage solution for green hydrogen. This
Morocco is accelerating its energy transition by issuing a global call for expressions of interest to build two large-scale battery storage facilities. The projects are spearheaded by the Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Energy (MASEN) and Morocco's national electricity company ONEE.
The projects are spearheaded by the Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Energy (MASEN) and Morocco's national electricity company ONEE. On May 20, 2025, MASEN received financing approval from the World Bank for its "Morocco Energy Storage Testbed Project", aiming to enhance grid stability.
The site is the Jorf industrial zone, around 100 kilometers south of Casablanca. In the next step, the energy source will be processed into green ammonia. Hydrojeel receives 30 million euros to develop production plants for hydrogen and ammonia.
