Moroccan electricity industry is facing a steady growth demand, having increased yearly by six to eight per cent in the past 10 years. Growth has been driven by robust economic development and improved welfare conditions, following various economic reforms. Electricity in Morocco is mainly generated from fossil fuels and, more particularly, fuel oil and coal. The private sector already produces more than half of Moroccan power. Due to domestic resources shortages, Morocco imports almost all of its energy feedstock at a cost that the state can barely afford. As a result, Morocco aims at pursuing a diversification of its energy sources by developing its renewable energy potential.
