ABL Group (OSE: ABL Group ASA – ticker code “ABL”) is a leading independent global consultancy delivering energy, marine, engineering and digital solutions to drive safety and sustainability in renewables, maritime and oil & gas sectors. The group has offices in 39 countries worldwide and operates under four brands: ABL, OWC, Longitude and AGR.
The Xlinks project envisages the development of a commercial-scale renewable energy project in Morocco, harnessing solar PV and wind power resource to supply green electricity to the United Kingdom through HDVC subsea cables between Morocco and the UK. The project will also include industrial-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS). Upon completion, the project is expected to deliver enough renewable electricity to power over seven million British homes.
ABL’s scope of work covered the review of feasibility studies, market and supply chain studies, cost engineering, environmental and social impact assessments, specialised design studies relating to project critical infrastructure, route and site selection studies and energy resource and yield assessments.
“This is a ground-breaking project, on which we are really pleased to have supported Africa Finance Corporation in their planning. With multi-disciplinary expertise, dedicated in-house consultancy for grid-scale renewable energy development, local market knowledge and established presence in African energy, ABL was the logical partner to support this project.”
