Highlights

  • The country aims to reach 52% of renewables in its power mix in 2030 and 80% in 2050.
  • ONEE operates around half of the power capacity and the electricity transmission network.
  • Power generation is increasing rapidly (over 5%/year).
  • The share of coal in the power mix has increased by 22 points since 2010 to 68% in 2021. The share of wind and solar is also progressing rapidly and reached 16% in 2021 (+14 points since 2010).
  • Motor fuel prices increased by around 50% since 2020, while electricity prices have remained stable.
  • Energy consumption and power consumption per capita is 40% below the North African average.
  • Oil accounts for nearly 51% of total energy consumption, followed by coal with 31%
  • Electricity demand is expected to increase by 6%/year by 2030 to reach 80 TWh.
  • Around 12 GW of solar projects are planned, as well as four LNG import terminals.

  • 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

    Gas:

    National gas production reached 118 mcm in 2021, i.e. only 14% of the domestic consumption.

  • Energy Prices

    Electricity:

    In 2022, the price of electricity is US$14.5c/kWh for industry and US$11.4c/kWh for households. Since 2017, these prices have remained constant in Dirham, but have increased in dollar terms because of a deprecation of the national currency (+1.5%/year for industry and households over 2016-2022).

  • Energy Consumption

    In 2021, per capita energy consumption was 0.61 toe (around 43% below the North Africa average), including around 930 kWh of electricity (39% below the regional average).

  • Issues & Prospects

    According to the MTEDD, the country's energy needs will more than triple by 2030. Morocco aims to cover 52% of capacity from renewables 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.

The Morocco energy market data since 1990 and up to is included in the Excel file accompanying the Morocco country report.
It showcases the historical evolution, allowing users to easily work with the data.

Key Data included in the excelsheet:

  • Economic indicators: Annual historical economic indicators, energy security, energy efficiency and CO2 emissions.
  • Supply indicators: Annual historical reserves, capacity, production and external trade (imports(+) exports(-) balance).
  • Demand indicators: Annual historical consumption per capita, consumption trends, total consumption, final consumption (per energy and per sector) and electricity consumption total and per sector.
  • Energy Balance: total and per energy.
  • Morocco Energy Prices: In addition to the analysis provided on the report we also provided a data set which includes historical details on the Morocco energy prices for the follow items: price of premium gasoline (taxes incl.), price of diesel (taxes incl.), price of electricity in industry (taxes incl.), price of electricity for households (taxes incl.), price of natural gas in industry (taxes incl.), prices of natural gas for households (taxes incl.), spot price of Brent and CO2 emissions (from fuel combustion).
