GCL System Integration successfully hosted GCL Solar Connect: Morocco 2026, an exclusive executive networking forum that brought together senior leaders from across Morocco’s renewable energy sector to foster strategic dialogue, strengthen industry partnerships, and explore opportunities supporting the country’s accelerating clean energy transition.
Held at the Casablanca Marriott Hotel, the invitation-only event convened leading solar developers, EPC companies, distributors, investors, utilities, policymakers, financial institutions, and technology providers for an afternoon of insightful discussions and high-level networking.
Organized under the theme “Building Resilience with GCL. Powering Partnerships for Sustainable Growth,” the forum underscored the critical role of collaboration, innovation, and long-term partnerships in driving Morocco’s renewable energy ambitions and supporting the country’s evolving energy landscape.
One of the key highlights of the event was the executive leadership panel discussion titled “Accelerating Morocco’s Solar Transition Through Strategic Partnerships,” featuring distinguished industry leaders:
- Abdelkhalek Baou, CEO, SunQ
- Chander Mani Sharma, Strategy & Business Development Director – MEA, GCL System Integration
- Houssine Al Montaser, Senior Project Manager, ONEE – Branche Electricité
- Taha Yassine Laala, Structured Finance Manager, HydroJeel
The panel explored Morocco’s rapidly evolving solar market, discussing investment opportunities, grid development, financing models, project implementation, and the importance of cross-sector collaboration in accelerating renewable energy deployment. Panelists also shared perspectives on addressing emerging market challenges while unlocking new opportunities for sustainable growth.
Beyond the panel discussions, GCL Solar Connect provided an ideal platform for meaningful business engagement, enabling participants to exchange market insights, strengthen existing relationships, and establish new partnerships across Morocco’s renewable energy value chain. The event facilitated productive conversations between key industry stakeholders, reinforcing the importance of collaboration in advancing large-scale renewable energy projects.
Speaking on the occasion, Chander Mani Sharma, Strategy & Business Development Director – MEA, GCL System Integration, said “Morocco continues to demonstrate remarkable leadership in renewable energy adoption, creating significant opportunities for innovation and collaboration. Through GCL Solar Connect, we aim to bring together industry leaders to exchange ideas, build trusted partnerships, and collectively support the country’s ambitious clean energy goals. We believe that strong industry collaboration will be instrumental in accelerating the next phase of Morocco’s energy transition.”
The Morocco edition further strengthens the growing momentum of the GCL Solar Connect 2026 series, following the successful South Africa edition held earlier this year. Through these regional initiatives, GCL continues to create valuable platforms that encourage knowledge sharing, strategic dialogue, and long-term partnerships across emerging renewable energy markets.
As Morocco continues expanding its renewable energy capacity and attracting investments in sustainable infrastructure, collaborative industry platforms such as GCL Solar Connect will remain instrumental in connecting stakeholders, enabling business opportunities, and supporting the country’s long-term clean energy vision.
