I heard about Xlinks before and I'm cheering for it, but to me a shorter, but more powerful HVDC line to Spain and a plant there would yield better returns, and earlier at that.
Solar is booming there anyway - there's currently 22GW connected to the grid, which is double that of the 2019 figure. A far cry from the days of the infamous sun tax.
The world relies on Morocco for its minerals used in fertilizers so if it were not a safe place to invest, we would have worse problems to deal with, but still, the world record in HVDC line length might be not worth it.
