QatarEnergy has partnered with TotalEnergies on a solar power project, as part of the Gas Growth Integrated Project (GGIP), in the Republic of Iraq.
Subject to regulatory approvals, QatarEnergy will acquire a 50% interest in the project, with TotalEnergies retaining the remaining 50%.
This project, set so far to be one of the largest in the world, will consist of 2 million bifacial solar panels mounted on single-axis trackers and will, upon completion, be capable of supplying 1.25 GW to the grid in Iraq’s Basra region.
The project is scheduled to be developed in phases that will come online between next year and 2027.
“I am pleased to have concluded our entry into this very important project for Iraq’s energy sector, and look forward to working with our strategic partner, TotalEnergies, to progress it to fruition,” says His Excellency Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi, minister of State for Energy Affairs and president and CEO of QatarEnergy.
“We thank the Iraqi government for their trust, and TotalEnergies for this opportunity to support Iraq’s solar power development.”
QatarEnergy announced last June that it had entered into a consortium to implement the GGIP in Iraq, with a 25% participating interest, together with TotalEnergies, holding a 45% share and Iraq’s Basra Oil Company, holding a 30% share.

There Is a Third Option
Whoa. Let’s take a step back. Is it really either A or B?

Does It Get Any Worse?
Maybe, as they say, “Hell has a special place reserved in it” for people like Thom Tillis, Republican Senator from North Carolina, who enabled Trump to rape and destroy the United States.
That was until it became clear to Tillis that he could jump ship, write a scathing book about the president, get all over mainstream news promoting it, and go on to enjoy another chapter of political success.
That we Americans are so stupid that we accept this blatant hypocrisy and criminality is sad proof that we’re not the people we were 20 years ago. Maybe what many people are saying are correct: we deserved what we got.
