Morocco is accelerating its energy transition with the launch of a new solar project using an advanced technology designed for high performance and efficiency.

The Tiger Neo 3.0 modules,built on N-type TOPCon technology,will be deployed in Morocco by Chinese Jinko Solar company in a 90 MW power plant project which aligns with the Kingdom’s goal to generate over 52% of its electricity from renewable sources by 2030

The cutting-edge technology that will be used in the Moroccan project will deliver an impressive power conversion efficiency of up to 24.8% and output of up to 670W.

Neo 3.0 is designed for hot,extreme summer heat regions like desert areas,tropical areas. Its lower temperature coefficient of -0.26%/°C means better performance at high temperatures.

According to latest data,Morocco’s solar technology imports have surged by 46% in the first quarter of 2026 alone. The high-performance Tiger Neo modules are specifically engineered for harsh environments,featuring advanced resistance to dust,sand,and high temperatures,making them the perfect fit for Morocco’s desert landscape.

The North African Kingdom is a global leader in renewable energy,boasting some of the highest solar insolation rates in the world (averaging over 3,000 hours of sunshine per year). The country aims to source 52% of its total installed electricity capacity from renewable energy by 2030,with mega-scale solar and wind projects spearheading the transition to reduce dependence on imported fossil fuels.
