MOROCCO TO HOST ITS LARGEST ROOFTOP SOLAR PV
The project consists of a 56 kWp grid-tied solar photovoltaic (PV) system with an integrated 80 kWh battery storage solution, designed for self-consumption and backup power during
As far as solar is concerned, the country experiences 3000 hours per year of annual sunshine equivalent to 5.3 kWh/m²/day. In Morocco, the total installed renewable energy capacity (including hydropower) was approximately 1,431 MW in 2022.
The Moroccan Government has set up an ambitious target of meeting 52% of its energy requirements using renewable resources by 2030. Morocco is investing heavily in developing its renewable energy sector, which will reduce its dependence on imported energy carriers to a great extent.
Morocco has launched one of the world's largest and most ambitious solar energy plan with investment of more than USD 9billion. The Moroccan Solar Plan is regarded as a milestone on the country's path towards a secure and sustainable energy supply which is clean, green and affordable.
In 2022, Morocco spent around US$13.5 billion on all energy imports (crude oil and oil products, coal, natural gas and electricity). Annual electricity consumption in Morocco was 38 TWh in 2022, and is steadily increasing at a rate of around 7 percent each year. The major sources of renewable energy in Morocco are solar and wind power.
