Rabat, Morocco

Headquarters of the Higher Council for Education, Training and Scientific Research (CSEFRS)

The East-West orientation of the building project in relation to the course of the sun, makes it possible to optimise inputs and reduce heat loss. The CSEFRS has made an investment in two photovoltaic installations that, with the equivalent of 352 MWh, cover 55% of the site's electricity needs, which have been estimated at 600 MWh per year.
