"""
Solar and wind farms are already proliferating south of the Mediterranean. Morocco’s Noor and Egypt’s Benban solar farms are among the largest in the world. Their initial aim has been to boost domestic power supplies and reduce reliance on coal. But now these facilities are increasingly being lined up to supply green energy to industrial neighbors to the north.

#Colonialism around clean energy is still colonialism.

How much will Morocco really benefit from Xlink, or the people in the "contested regions"?
How much do Native Americans benefit from utility solar built on "public" lands?
How much would the Sami benefit from proposed wind farms?
How much do residents of Groningen benefit from gas production? They, like Oklahomans, are left with the homes cracked by mini-earthquakes.

Do they share in the profits?
