El Jadida – Un partenariat scientifique a été signé mercredi à El Jadida, entre l’université Chouaib Doukkali (UCD) et des opérateurs chinois dans le domaine de l’énergie propre.

L’accord, qui porte notamment sur la création d’un “Laboratoire Sino Marocain de l’Énergie Verte et des Matériaux Avancés”, a été scellé par l’Ecole Nationale des Sciences Appliquées (ENSAJ) de l’UCD, l’Université de Technologie de Xi’an, ainsi que les entreprises Huadian Heavy Industries et Huadian Lanco Technologies.

Dans une déclaration à la MAP, Abdelowahed hajjaji, directeur de l’ENSAJ, a indiqué que cette initiative vise à renforcer la coopération scientifique entre le Maroc et la Chine et à contribuer à la transition énergétique en développant des solutions de pointe dans le domaine des énergies renouvelables et des matériaux avancés.

Ce laboratoire, a-t-il poursuivi, est axé sur l’innovation dans des domaines cruciaux comme le photovoltaïque et l’hydrogène vert, des secteurs en pleine expansion dans le Royaume.

M. Hajjaji a précisé qu’une équipe de recherche du Laboratoire des Sciences de l’Ingénieur pour l’Énergie (LabSIPE) de l’ENSAJ mène déjà des travaux de collaboration dans le domaine de stockage d’énergie verte, avec des partenaires internationaux, en France notamment. Ce genre de partenariat a montré la qualité du savoir-faire marocain en matière de gestion et d’optimisation des énergies renouvelables.

“Ce laboratoire conjoint, a t-il détaillé, sera plus qu’une simple infrastructure. Il deviendra un pôle d’innovation environnementale en s’appuyant sur l’expertise partagée des chercheurs marocains et chinois”.

Il est également conçu, selon lui, comme une plateforme de formation et de transfert de compétences pour les jeunes chercheurs des deux pays, ouvrant des perspectives prometteuses pour une économie verte et durable, adaptée aux enjeux environnementaux du XXIe siècle.

Ce partenariat incarne la relation solide et durable entre le Maroc et la Chine, avec une volonté commune de réduire les émissions de carbone et d’améliorer l’efficacité énergétique, a-t-il conclu.

Africa for President Biden Administration: An Overall Empty Promise

By 2050, Africa will be the most populous region in the world, home to minerals needed to power a modern world and economy and with enough voting weight in global institutions to give the continent a consequential voice in global decision-making.

These facts, Biden contends, mean that the United States can no longer relegate Africa to second-tier status. Instead, the strategy argues forcefully, and convincingly, that wherever decisions are being made with global impact, African voices need to be heard.

That sounds good, but the challenge with such an ambitious approach has always been in the implementation—and here, the Biden administration has fallen short of its own rhetoric.

After all, Africa’s problem isn’t that the United States didn’t see it as a continent of the future; it’s that the United States only ever sees it as a continent of the future. Unless and until what happens in Africa affects the United States’ present-day national security interests, the promise of Biden’s strategy will remain just that: a promise.

But in the rush to define an African legacy in the waning months of the Biden administration, three issues have emerged upon which much of that legacy will rest, some by design and others by circumstance: Biden’s personal engagement with Africa; his efforts to raise Africa’s voice in global institutions; and the administration’s response to the war in Sudan, the world’s largest humanitarian and displacement crisis.

Extract from: Biden’s Legacy in Africa
Commentary by Cameron Hudson
Published October 7, 2024

President Biden has articulated a vision for Africa in the world that Africans roundly agree with, but his record on making that vision a reality has fallen short after nearly four years in office.
