A few past Fondasol Morocco projects

The teams at Fondasol Morocco can support you with the implementation of your construction and spatial planning projects in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Solar platforms or V solar farms, quarries or water supply systems, mining projects or industrial infrastructure, maritime projects or issues with earthworks... Our teams are ready to rise to any challenge!

Read about some of our teams' past projects below.

Don't hesitate to consult our Past projects section.

Hybrid solar power plant, Noor Midelt, phase 1

Geotechnical engineering and geophysical missions

Geotechnical engineering tests: dynamic cone penetrometer, reconnaissance digging with a mechanical excavator, core-drilled boreholes with SPT, permeability tests
Geophysical tests: electrical measurements, thermal and seismic resistance, electrical resistivity tomography
Laboratory tests: soil, rock and aggregate identification, and mechanical tests
Geotechnical engineering recommendations based on material collected and analysed

Or a huge campaign of over 2,000 tests in the space of 6-7 weeks, in connection with the construction of phase 1 of the NOOR MIDELT solar platform, the future largest multi-technique solar power complex in the world

Solar panel farm, Tetouan

Geotechnical investigations

Field visit by the project manager and an expert geologist
Geological ground investigations done using a mechanical excavator with pits dug until refusal
Analysis of the soil samples collected in our laboratory in Mohammedia.
