The initiative, which had been dormant since 2016, seeks to establish a bi-directional cable that will facilitate the integration of renewable energy sources and bolster the Iberian Peninsula’s interconnection rate with Europe. With Morocco already serving as a critical energy bridge between Africa and Europe, this project is positioned as a pivotal step towards Morocco’s deeper integration into the European electricity market, while also addressing the growing demand for decarbonized energy in Europe. Both nations are pursuing European funding to support the estimated €650-800 million project, which is essential for securing private investment.
