In his 24th Throne Day Speech, the King of Morocco, Mohamed VI, spoke about green hydrogen and the country’s ambitions in this area. He wants to push the “Morocco offer” project.

In his speech on 29 July, the King began by welcoming “the manufacturing of the first Moroccan-made, locally produced and financed car, as well as the presentation of the first hydrogen-powered car prototype developed by a young Moroccan.” The car in question is Namx’s HUV.

He then spoke of the role that alternative energies can play. “We are in great need of seriousness and confidence. We must also make the most of new opportunities to enhance the resilience of our economy and promote recovery,” said Mohammed VI. “With that in mind, I have launched the OCP Group Green Investment Project and accelerated the implementation of the renewable energy agenda. Following the meeting I chaired in this regard, the government prepared the “Morocco Offer” project in the field of green hydrogen.”

He continued: “I invite the government to speed up the implementation of this project, to make sure the requirements of quality are observed, to leverage our country’s significant potential in this regard, and to meet the expectations of leading global investors in this promising field.”
