Rabat – Morocco’s Ministry of Energy Transition and Sustainable Development has submitted to the UN a long-term low greenhouse gas emission strategy for 2050, renewing the country’s commitment to sustainable development and sustainable energy.

The strategy, which the government finalized in October 2021, suggests raising by almost 30% Morocco’s current clean energy ambitions.

While the current objective aims for 52% renewable energy in the total installed capacity by 2030, the new roadmap suggests raising the share of renewable energies to 70% by 2040 and 80% by 2050 in the electricity mix, in terms of both energy and capacity.
