Xlinks, the project developer, was founded in 2018. Xlinks Ltd. was incorporated in March 2019. In September 2021, Xlinks stated that they "have secured with the Moroccan government an area of about 1,500 km [580 square miles] for a combined wind and solar farm in Morocco". By October 2021, Xlinks stated that they have reached agreement with for two 1.8 GW HVDC connections to the in Devon. [pdf]
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 be connected exclusively to Great Britain via 4000km (2485 miles) HVDC sub-sea cables.
The new electricity generation and battery storage facilities will be located in Morocco’s renewable energy-rich region of Guelmim Oued Noun and will be connected exclusively to Great Britain via 3,800km HVDC sub-sea cables. The generation is enough to provide low-cost, clean power to over 7 million British homes from the end of the decade.

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 power generation facility, comprising a solar and wind farm, is in its development stage on an area of 1,500km² in the Guelmim Oued Noun region of Morocco. The combined facility will generate 10.5GW of energy, of which 3.6GW is planned to be transmitted to the UK to meet up to 8% of its electricity demand.
The Morocco-UK power project will contribute to the growth of the domestic solar and wind components manufacturing industry in Morocco. It is expected to generate about 10,000 jobs in Morocco during the construction phase, including 2,000 permanent jobs.

The Brazilian electric matrix is composed of: hydraulic energy, 64.9%; biomass, 8.4%; wind energy, 8.6%; solar energy, 1%; natural gas, 9.3%; oil products, 2%; nuclear, 2.5%; coal and derivatives, . [pdf]
The renewable energy sector accounts for 83% of the Brazilian electricity matrix, while the global average is around 25%. The renewable energy industry has continuously expanded over the years through private investment.
“And according to some long-term projections the solar energy has the potential to respond to 32% of Brazil’s total capacity by 2040, which would make it the leading source of energy in Brazil ahead of hydropower”. The recent growth and potential market for both solar and wind energy is also fuelling innovation.
Traditional biomass – the burning of charcoal, crop waste, and other organic matter – is not included. This can be an important source in lower-income settings. Brazil: How much of the country’s electricity comes from nuclear power? Nuclear power – alongside renewables – is a low-carbon source of electricity.
Hydropower has been the leading Brazilian energy source for electricity generation for several decades. This is due to its economic competitiveness and its potential at the national level.
He says that the solar energy installed capacity will grow by 1 GW per year until 2026. “And according to some long-term projections the solar energy has the potential to respond to 32% of Brazil’s total capacity by 2040, which would make it the leading source of energy in Brazil ahead of hydropower”.
Investments in the Brazilian electricity sector is expected to reach over $100 billion by 2029, including utility-scale generation, distributed generation, transmission, and distribution projects. Brazil’s electricity matrix is one of the cleanest in the world and Brazil is committed to continuing its support for renewable energy projects.

In a traditional electrical grid system, the network operator will typically only know the power failure issues when consumer call them and file a complaint. But in case of a smart grid system, if supply fails and any fault appears then the service provider will automatically respond to the affected area.
