The visit is meant to advance talks on the establishment of a partnership with several Moroccan institutions concerning the projects of Morocco's Solar Plan, which aims to generate a solar-based power capacity of 2GW by 2020, a joint statement of the two multinationals said.
The two companies, leaders in solar energy and photovoltaic power, also expressed their commitment to use local industrial capacity and benefit the country of their expertise at all levels (production, operations and maintenance).
Present in over 100 countries, including Morocco (since 1960), Schneider Electric is a global specialist in energy management, while Solairedirect -established in 2006- is a leading company in the field of solar photovoltaics in France.
