Let's dive into the major projects transforming Laâyoune, each a testament to the city's rising prominence. These initiatives span education, transportation, renewable energy, and urban development, reflecting a holistic approach to progress.
The Noor Laâyoune Solar Complex, part of Morocco's ambitious Noor solar program, is expanding in 2025 to increase its capacity. This project aligns with Morocco's goal to generate 52% of its energy from renewables by 2030. The complex uses concentrated solar power (CSP) technology, harnessing the Sahara's abundant sunlight to produce clean energy.
Laâyoune, the vibrant capital of Morocco's southern provinces, is a city on the cusp of transformation. Nestled in the heart of the Sahara, this desert jewel is witnessing a surge of infrastructure projects in 2025 that promise to reshape its economic, social, and cultural landscape.
One of the most ambitious projects in Laâyoune is the construction of the Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P) campus as part of the Foum El Oued Technopole. Launched in 2025, this 600-hectare development, with an investment of nearly 2 billion dirhams, is a game-changer for education and innovation in the region.
