The wind turbine blade manufacturing plant developed by Siemens in Morocco has begun producing its first products. The project, which was first agreed upon in March 2016, will be officially inaugurated on October 11.
The €100 million plant can now supply Morocco’s 200-MW wind farm project led by Nareva in Boujdour, although 85% of its production is slated for the international market.
A new technology called "Integral blade" was used to make the blades in one piece; which increases their rigidity and lifespan.
A training center has also been set up by Siemens to train workers to run the infrastructure.
