PROJECT UPDATE
MOROCCO
Magna, a mobility technology company, has expanded
its footprint in Morocco by constructing a new facility in
Kenitra to supply global automakers with exterior and interior
mirror systems. Production of the new plant is set to begin in
Spring 2020. “Expanding into Morocco is a strategic move for
Magna, as our customers continue to grow in the region,” said
John O’Hara, President Magna Mechatronics, Mirrors and
Lighting. “We also value the high level of skilled employees
and engineering talent in the region, and we look
forward to building a strong and capable team.”
MALAWI
JCM is developing a solar photovoltaic (PV) project in
the Golomoti district of the Republic of Malawi. JCM was
successful in a tender process in Malawi and was awarded
the right to develop two sites, one site near the Salima
substation and a second near the Golomoti substation. JCM
has negotiated a power purchase agreement (PPA) with the
Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi Limited (ESCOM).
The PPA signing is subject to Malawi Energy Regulatory
Authority (MERA) approval once the tariff is settled
between JCM and ESCOM.
