Morocco’s Ecoprogetti PV Production Unit Expansion has been completed. This facility PV production unit is located in the city of Al Hoceima in northern Morocco. The facility is usually operated by Almaden Morocco.
After the completion of the expansion works, the facility now boasts an impressive 1GW from its previous 500MW. This feature makes it unique by making it the largest solar module plant in Morocco and the North Africa region.
Morocco’s Ecoprogetti PV Production Unit Expansion Details
This new line has been incorporated with technology that is based on tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) G12 18BB half-cut cells. It is in a system that has been designed to ensure that both maximum efficiency and superior quality are met in the glass-glass modules.
Ecoprogetti mentioned in one statement that Aldem Morocco will be able to produce high-efficiency modules. These modules will meet standards enabling them to be supplied to both the African and global market.
Ecoprogetti kicked off the expansion works of the PV production line in the month of July. Its operations were expected to start in the month of October. Additionally, it is quite important to note that Ecoprogetti has been partnering with Aldem Morocco since the year 2018. This was when the first 500MW unit was delivered.
Other Similar Projects by Ecoprogetti in Asia
In another project that was undertaken by Ecoprogetti, the company made an announcement in November on the completion of the first solar panel production line in Oman. The Sheida Solar Facility is usually operated by the Sheida Industries which is based in Oman. As for the capacity of this facility in Oman, it can produce 450 W, 550 W, and 590 W panels featuring tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) technology.
Furthermore, this particular facility in Oman is mainly focused on the small- to medium-scale PV solar market. Just like the facility in Morocco, this one will also supply not only to its domestic market but also in the African continent.
As mentioned by the spokesperson of this project, “The production line is already supplying panels to a 200 MW domestic project.”
“Moreover, the project plans to expand production with another 500MW turnkey line by second quarter of 2025,” the spokesperson added.
Also, China’s Q-Sun Solar revealed its ambitious plans for constructing a 10GW solar module facility in Oman. It is also quite important to note that works on a polysilicon manufacturing factory in the country is also underway.
Moreover, the company was responsible for supplying a glass-glass solar panel production line to India’s SAEL.
About Ecoprogetti
Ecoprogetti kicked its history in the year 1994 as a photovoltaic panels manufacturer with a manual production line. Aiming to reduce manual work, and increasing its overall production capacity, the company started building small automatic machines for its production line.
In the year 1998, the company rose to become an independent reality. It was dedicated to the production of machinery for the PV industry. Initially, Ecoprogetti manufactured machines for the entire photovoltaic industry. The machines range from machines for processing, cleaning and cutting the ingot, then wafer quality control and automation for the production of cells.
Eventually, the company specialized exclusively in the designing and assembling of production machines and quality control of PV modules. |
