US invests $4.5B in Laayoune for green energy
The American company "ORNX Green Hydrogen" has announced its selection of "KBR" to carry out the pre-engineering design phase for a major low-carbon ammonia production project in the Al Ayun region in southern Morocco. The project aims to produce approximately 560,000 tons of ammonia annually, utilizing electrolysis capabilities of around 900 megawatts, based on the region’s abundant renewable resources, with a total investment estimated at $4.5 billion. The project features an integrated platform combining energy production, hydrogen generation, and ammonia manufacturing, leveraging the proximity of the area to ports. This investment represents an important step in positioning the region on the map for low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia production, and it reflects an enhancement of investment relations between Morocco and the United States. It is expected to contribute to boosting exports and creating jobs. American companies, including "KBR," will lead assessment studies and technology development, focusing on electrolysis technology and energy supply, ensuring the capacity to meet both local and global demand for green hydrogen and ammonia products.
