Je scinde du fil sur le Maroc, car ca concerne à la même importance l' Angleterre.
Qu'est ce que cette société Xlinks ?
On pourrait penser à un gros énergéticien en UK, mais ..... pas du tout.
C'est une start up.
Si on cherche le nombre d'employés on trouve : 5 !
Localisé à Londres

Ils ont un site.

Typique de startup.
Qui sont ils ?
ils écrivent :
"Who we are
The Xlinks team is comprised of individuals from a broad range of backgrounds, but with one thing in common – a drive to change the way we think about the low carbon energy transition."
Expérience industrielle ?
Aucune.
Pour le moment ils ont une ''vision''.
Our Vision
Xlinks’ vision is to unlock the potential of remote renewable energy generation and enable markets with high energy demand to diversify their energy supply, increase resilience and faster decarbonise their economies to achieve net zero emissions. Through the development of large-scale power infrastructure spanning land and seas, Xlinks aims to transmit reliable but flexible power from resource rich remote locations, where it can be most economically and sustainably generated at scale.
Xlinks intends to achieve these goals by adopting an integrated approach, which sets the sustainable socio-economic development of the regions involved as a priority, ensuring that the benefits from our projects are equitably distributed and positively impact local communities.
Qu'est ce qu'ils prétendent faire :
The Morocco - UK Power Project
The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project will be a new electricity generation facility entirely powered by solar and wind energy combined with a battery storage facility. Located in Morocco’s renewable energy rich region of Guelmim Oued Noun, it will cover an approximate area of 1,500km2 and will be connected exclusively to Great Britain via 3,800km HVDC sub-sea cables.
This “first of a kind” project will generate 10.5GW of zero carbon electricity from the sun and wind to deliver 3.6GW of reliable energy for an average of 20+ hours a day. This is enough to provide low-cost, clean power to over 7 million British homes by 2030. Once complete, the project will be capable of supplying 8 percent of Great Britain’s electricity needs.
Alongside the consistent output from its solar panels and wind turbines,
an onsite 20GWh/5GW battery facility provide sufficient storage to reliably deliver each and every day, a dedicated, near-constant source of flexible and predictable clean energy for Britain, designed to complement the renewable energy already generated across the UK.
When domestic renewable energy generation in the United Kingdom drops due to low winds and short periods of sun, the project will harvest the benefits of long hours of sun in Morocco alongside the consistency of its convection Trade Winds, to provide a firm but flexible source of zero-carbon electricity.
The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project will provide “renewable energy that acts like baseload power”.
Connected to Great Britain by undersea cables
Four cables, each 3,800km long form the twin 1.8GW HVDC subsea cable systems that will follow the shallow water route from the Moroccan site to a grid location in Great Britain, passing Spain, Portugal, and France.
Agreement has been reached with National Grid for two 1.8GW connections at Alverdiscott in Devon. Voltage source convertor stations will enable the Xlinks project to secure high value balancing contracts with National Grid, and a HVDC Technical Feasibility study has been completed to validate reliability and cost.
Des câbles sous marins de 3800 km, alors que le record du monde est un câble de ''seulement'' 720 km tout juste mis en service entre la Norvége et UK, voir mon récent post

Ca fait 5.2 fois plus long !
Bref c'est un Desertec le retour.
Suivons dans ce fil ce sujet.
