Saudi developer Acwa Power on 29 June inaugurated its 120MW Khalladi wind farm at Jbel Sendouq, 30km from Tangiers. The completed project comprises 40 wind turbines and will produce 380GWh/yr, contributing to the reduction of more than 144,000 t/yr of CO2. Khalladi, which cost around $170m to build, is one of the first privately funded renewable energy projects in Morocco and has been developed under Law 13-09, which allows private producers to sell electricity directly to high-voltage clients.
