Sterling and Wilson Pvt.
Ltd. (Mumbai, Maharashtra, India), one of India's leading solar
photovoltaic (PV) EPC companies, have signed an agreement to construct a
170 MW PV facility, with a consortium led by ACWA Power (Dubai, United
Arab Emirates) in the Kingdom of Morocco.
The agreement was signed during a ceremony at COP22
in Marrakech. Construction on NOOR PV I will begin shortly and is
estimated to take 12 months to complete.
The NOOR PV I Program will consist of three
projects: NOOR Ouarzazate IV, with a capacity of around 70 MW, NOOR
Laayoune, 80 MW and NOOR Boujdour, 20 MW. This is the first solar PV
phase of the NOOR Solar Plan, which has already seen three major
Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) projects in Ouarzazate.
Sterling and Wilson has been selected as the EPC
contractor for what will be one of the largest Solar PV plants in North
Africa. Once completed, the plant is expected to be operational for
20 years.
“These projects have been won after an intense
competitive bidding process,” said Bikesh Ogra, President – Renewable
and Electrical.
