Abstract
Institutions & Energy Policy
The Sustainable Ministry of Energy Transition and Sustainable Development (MTEDD) plays a central role in the implementation and coordination of the energy policy. It promotes the energy savings policy, as well as the development of new energies and renewables. The Ministry of Finance is responsible for the taxation and financing of projects.
Energy Supply
Oil:
The national production of hydrocarbons is low. All the oil products are imported since the shutdown of the sole refinery of the country in 2015 (200 000 bbl/d). Oil product imports increased rapidly from 2015 to 2019 (+6%/year) and decreased by 12% in 2020 due to the COVID crisis.
Energy Prices
Electricity:
The price of electricity is US$15.3c/kWh for industry and US$12c/kWh for households. Prices decreased by about 14% for industry and 10% for households between 2014 and 2016. Since 2017, they have remained constant in Dirham, but have increased in dollar terms because of a deprecation of the national currency (+2.8%/year for households and industry over 2016-2021).
Energy Consumption
Per capita energy consumption is 0.56 toe (around 42% below the North Africa average), including around 900 kWh of electricity (38% below the regional average) (2020).

Issues & Prospects
According to the MEME (now MTEDD), the country's energy needs will more than triple by 2030. Morocco aims to cover 42% of its power capacity with renewable energy sources by 2020, and 52% in 2030. In its new Low Carbon Development Strategy for 2050, Morocco aims to generate 70% of its electricity from renewables in 2040 and 80% in 2050.
