China Energy Engineering Corporation has been awarded a contract for a technical project related to the Al Wahda gas turbine power plant in Morocco, according to a report by Barlamane.com. The plant is expected to have an installed capacity of 990 megawatts.
The contract involves the supply of a 6.6 kV harmonic treatment device, valued at approximately 2.25 million dirhams (about $225,000). This equipment is crucial for maintaining power quality and reducing electrical harmonics in the plant's operations.
The Al Wahda project is part of Morocco's efforts to diversify its energy mix and increase natural gas usage. The country aims to reduce reliance on coal and boost renewable energy, though gas serves as a transitional fuel.
As of April 2026, no further details on the project timeline or completion date have been officially confirmed. The contract award highlights China's growing role in Morocco's energy infrastructure.
