Huge Solar and Wind Potential Renewable Energy in Morocco Huge Solar and Wind Potential
The legal and institutional Reforms Renewable Energy in Morocco The 3 laws have been passed in 2010…. Liberalization the energy sector (production, access to the grid…) Creating of a dedicated -Conduct the overall solar 2000 MW project (design, choice of operators, implementation, management ,etc....) Renewable Energies and Energy Efficiency (ADEREE) Creating of a dedicated agency supported by theState of Morocco (Moroccan Agency for Solar Energy) -Conduct the overall solar 2000 MW project (design, choice of operators, implementation, management,etc....) education

A public-private partnership approach Renewable Energy in Morocco The implementation of all projects will be done through… Partnerships with national and international operators Choice of developers based on competition and with open technologies options (PV, CSP, ...etc) Diversified funding mechanisms
The Moroccan energy mix by 2020 The part of installed capacity of renewable energy will represent 42% of total electric installed capacity by 2020
Renewable Energy in Morocco DESERTEC Morocco strategic location, huge solar potential and Concrete National Energy Strategy Nareva Holding, joined the Desertec Industrial Initiative DII in march 2010 Driss Benhima, CEO of Royal Air Maroc, is a member of the International Advisory Board of DII that will support it in the implementation of the ‘Desertec’ initiative First Solar pilot project in Morocco of 500 MW is announced THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF DISCUSSION AND REPORTING OF MOROCCO BEING HOSTING THE FIRST SITE WE HAVE SOLAR RESOURCES, INFRASTRUCTURE, The Desertec Industrial Initiative, which aims to produce solar-electricity for Europe in northern Africa, plans to build a pilot-project in Morocco, Handelsblatt reported, citing Paul van Son, who heads the initiative. The project will examine various power generation systems including solar thermal and photovoltaic plants as well as wind turbines and could generate 500 to 1,000 megawatts, the newspaper reported.
Germany’s involvement Renewable Energy in Morocco Germany’s involvement Wind Energy: KFW provides financial support to Tangier and Essaouira parks (50 millions Euros loan for each) Hydraulic Energy: Financial support for the construction of Tanafnit, El Borj et Tilougguit plants and for renovation of 20 others (137 millions Euros). (Cooperation for Development) Solar Energy: Rural electrification through the installation individual solar kits (PERG) : 5,1 millions Euros of subsidies and 10,0 millions Euros loans. (Cooperation for Development) Total subsidies and loans: 252,1 millions Euros Energy and Environment is one of three of axis German cooperation 131 million euros 2011-2012
Conclusion Huge Potential of clean energy sources Renewable Energy in Morocco Conclusion Huge Potential of clean energy sources Strategic geographical location Favourable business environment Legal, regulatory and institutional reforms to promote the sector Commitment to strengthening the international cooperation
