MOROCCO POWER MARKET OUTLOOK TO 2030, UPDATE 2014 – MARKET TRENDS, REGULATIONS AND COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Executive Summary
Thermal Power Capacity Dominates Electricity Generation in Morocco
Oil-fired thermal power was the single largest
source of electricity in Morocco in 2013, accounting
for XX% of total installed capacity. Overall thermal
power capacity (comprising oil, coal and gas) also
had a much larger share than third-placed
hydropower, at XX% and XX%, respectively.
Morocco also uses coal and gas for thermal power
generation, as well as renewable sources such as
wind, solar and biogas. Coal-based thermal power
capacity accounted for XX% of the total installed
capacity, while gas-based capacity accounted for
XX%. The remaining XX% came from other
renewable sources of energy such as onshore
wind, biogas, solar Photovoltaic (PV) and solar
thermal.

Increase in Power Consumption and Generation between 2000 and 2013
Annual power consumption grew from XX Terawatt
hours (TWh) in 2000 to XX TWh in 2013 at a
Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of XX%.
During this period, annual power generation
increased from XX TWh to XX TWh at a CAGR of
XX% due to economic growth and the
government’s focus on increasing electricity
access rates by connecting rural areas to the
national grid.

Introduction
2 Introduction
Morocco is a developing country, primarily dependent on the agriculture, tourism and textile
sectors, which are the key drivers of the economy. The economy is characterized by high
unemployment and poverty, despite having made good economic progress. As a result, the
government is focusing its efforts on economic liberalization and modernization, which is expected
to create sufficient employment opportunities and lead to the economic development of the nation
as a whole.
Over the last few years, the government has pursued several reform processes to increase
economic competitiveness, specifically in energy, fisheries, commerce, agriculture, tourism, and
logistics. It has also invested heavily in developing infrastructural facilities. The Tanger-Med Port,
situated on the Strait of Gibraltar and became operational in 2014, is the largest port in Africa.
Morocco had a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of $XX billion (at constant prices) in 2012, and
registered a growth rate of XX% during the same year. However, its GDP growth rate increased in
2013 to XX%, reaching an estimated $XX billion (IMF, 2014). The services sector contributed an
estimated XX% to GDP in 2012, followed by the industry sector with XX% and the agriculture
sector with XX% (CIA, 2014). Morocco has substantial natural resources including fish,
manganese, lead, silver, and copper, and its major trading partners are France, Spain, India, Brazil
and the US.
Morocco is a member of the United Nations (UN), the Arab League, the Organization of Islamic
Cooperation, and the Arab Maghreb Union. In 2006, Morocco entered into a bilateral free trade
agreement with the US, which led to the removal of tariffs on XX% of bilateral trade in consumer
and industrial products between the two countries. It was also agreed that the remaining tariffs
would be removed within nine years. In 2008, Morocco entered into an advanced status agreement
with the EU.
The Ministry of Energy, Mining, Water and Environment is the main authoritative body in Morocco’s
electricity sector. The National Office of Electricity and Drinking Water (Office National de
l’Electricité et de l’Eau Potable, ONEE), the public sector utility, is the dominant player in the
electricity market. The government is focusing on developing renewable energy plants in order to
reduce dependence on imports, for which it has set an ambitious target of deriving XX% of its total
installed capacity from renewable sources by 2020.

Market Analysis
4.4 Morocco, Power Market, Demand Structure
Annual power consumption in Morocco increased from XX TWh in 2000 to XX TWh in 2013 at a
CAGR of XX%, fueled by economic expansion, population growth, and the government’s drive to
increase access to electricity in remote villages. Between 2014 and 2030, it is expected to increase
at a CAGR of XX% to XX TWh.
