A GIS-AHP combination for the sites assessment of large-scale CSP plants with dry and wet cooling systems. Case study: Eastern Morocco

Results show that Eastern Morocco can be considered as a very good location for hosting CSP power plants. For the wet cooling systems, the highly suitable sites to host CSP plants represent 11.7% from the total area, while 5.5% is the proportion of the highly suitable sites for CSP plants with dry cooling systems.
