The committee also authorized the signing of preliminary land reservation contracts in favor of 5 national and foreign investors, preselected during the steering committee meeting of March 6, 2025, for the development of 6 projects aligned with the “Morocco Offer” in the Kingdom’s three southern regions, with an overall cost of 319 billion dirhams.
During the meeting, the Head of Government praised the positive pace marking the rigorous and serious implementation of the “Morocco Offer” on green hydrogen, in line with the High Royal Directives. He stressed that the investment momentum strengthens partnerships, consolidates the trust of national and foreign operators in our country, and reinforces the Kingdom’s position as a regional and international energy hub in this promising strategic sector.
The Head of Government emphasized the importance of integrated planning of electrical, port, and water desalination infrastructures, as well as the alignment of their completion timelines with the agenda of green hydrogen projects. He recalled that the selection of projects under the “Morocco Offer” follows a scientific and transparent approach, ensuring balanced partnerships, motivating investors, and at the same time guaranteeing the proper use of public land.
It should be noted that the preselection process remains open to investors, with the aim of leveraging the Kingdom’s leadership position, its rich and diversified natural resources, its strategic geographic location, and its internationally compliant infrastructure.
