Energy transition consists of developing new energy strategies to diversify the power grid portfolio. However, these strategies depend in one hand to the available energy sources and technology maturit.
Electricity storage in Morocco falls within the scope of competence of the Ministry of Energy, Mines, Water and Environment. ONEE is in charge of the production, the transmission and the distribution of electricity.
The major systems are a combined heat and power generations modes for both SAFIEC and Jorf Lasfar power units. Morocco portfolio has only one natural gas power production unit which is in Tahhadart (North of Morocco). One interesting PSS project is in Afourer and coupled with Bin Louidane river.
Electricity storage is not separately defined in the Moroccan legislative framework. The rules concerning the issue of energy storage are to be found in the law applicable to the production of electricity.
There is currently one operational pumped hydro storage station in Afourer, Morocco, with a capacity of 460 MW. This project provides for time shifted electricity supply capacity and spinning reserve capacity. The Afourer pumped storage station, which was completed in 2004, is owned by the Moroccan Government 1 .
In this paper, we studied the role of energy storage that can play on the Moroccan energy portfolio. In consequence to investing on storage projects, we can increase the renewable energy share. Hydrogen storage will play an interesting role in the coming years due to the development of its technical maturity and then Load management.

Virtual power plants (VPPs), integrating multiple distributed energy resources, offer a promising solution for enhancing grid stability and reliability . However, challenges persist in effectively managing the variability of renewable energy generation and ensuring grid stability . Existing research highlights several critical shortcomings:
The “virtual” nature of VPPs comes from its lack of a central physical facility, like a traditional coal or gas plant. By generating electricity and balancing the energy load, the aggregated batteries and solar panels provide many of the functions of conventional power plants. They also have unique advantages.
The transition to renewable energy sources and distributed energy generation (DG) has spurred the global evolution of energy production methods. However, virtual power plants (VPPs) face challenges due to fluctuations in renewable energy sources (RES) production, such as those from photovoltaics and wind turbines.

Sierra de Meira Wind Farm (Galicia): A major wind energy project contributing to Spain's renewable energy targets. La Muela Wind Farm (Aragón): A significant wind farm located in northeastern Spain.
In 2009, the largest producer of wind power in Spain was Iberdrola, with 25.5% of capacity, followed by Acciona with 20.9% and NEO Energia (EDP Renewables) with 8.3%.
On specific occasions, the contribution of wind power in Spain reached 50% of the total electricity demand, indicating the sector's capacity to meet a substantial portion of the country's energy needs. *Includes 11 MW of Wind-Hydro hybrid system and associated generation of 1 GWh in 2014, 9 GWh in 2015.
Wind power is an important energy source in Spain because the Spanish government has sanctioned a green energy approach to guarantee an increase in the country's wind generation capacity, with aspirations to produce 2.1GW of wind power by 2010.
Three factors may influence the further progress of wind power development in Spain: the capability of the wind farms network to hold all the electricity harnessed by wind power, predominantly in off-peak times, the cost of energy, and the environmental effect that the abundance of wind farm development in Spain could turn out.
