EBRD backs climate-resilient economic zone at Nador West Med<\/strong>: The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is extending a EUR 110 mn senior loan to Betoya Industriel and Logistic Zone (BILZ) to develop a climate-resilient economic zone within the Nador West Med (NWM) industrial port complex, according to a statement<\/a> issued on Tuesday. <\/p>\n

There is more: <\/strong>The sovereign-backed loan is supplemented by three grants totaling EUR 10.1 mn from EBRD, the multilateral Global Environment Facility<\/a>, and the UK under the EBRD-sponsored High-Impact Partnership on Climate Action. <\/p>\n

Where\u2019s the money going?<\/strong> The financing will fund land development for the zone\u2019s industrial and logistics platforms. It will also support sustainable and energy-efficient infrastructure developments, including an on-site desalination plant, two wastewater treatment plants, and energy-efficient street lighting.<\/p>\n

About BILZ:<\/strong> BILZ \u2014 a wholly-owned subsidiary of state-run Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Nador West Med \u2014 was established in 2023 to manage and develop the economic zone adjacent to Nador West Med port.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t EBRD\u2019s first financing for the Nador West Med project: <\/strong>The Bank previously extended a EUR 100 mn loan in 2022<\/a> to Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 Nador West Med for the construction of the port, as a second tranche of a EUR 200 mn financing agreement inked in 2015.<\/p>\n

NWM <\/strong>is getting a lot of attention: <\/strong>Marsa Maroc\u2019s 25-year concession agreement for NWM\u2019s Western Terminal \u2014 secured last month<\/a> \u2014 is set to raise the port\u2019s container handling capacity to 9 mn TEUs, with almost 7 mn TEUs dedicated to container transshipment. AfDB inked a EUR 129 mn<\/a> agreement last year to support the development of economic zones as well as industrial and logistical facilities at the port.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
