Morocco is establishing itself as a central player in the energy transition within the Arab world. According to the 2025 Sector Report published by the Arab Company for the Guarantee of Investments and Export Credit (Daman), the Kingdom stands out for its growing strength in renewable energies, attraction of green investments, and regional electricity trade.
Between 2003 and 2024, Morocco attracted $38.1 billion in foreign direct investments in renewable energies, representing 11% of the total Arab investments, placing it behind Egypt. These investments have facilitated the launch of 55 projects, generating 12,267 jobs, which accounts for 15% of jobs created in the sector regionally. The solar and wind sectors continue to attract investors, thanks to a stable and favorable framework for the energy transition.
In wind energy, Morocco dominates the region: with a production of 9.2 TWh, it accounts for 42% of the total Arab production. Daman experts emphasize the maturity of Morocco’s wind farm and its key role in the gradual decarbonization of the national energy mix. By 2025, total electricity production is expected to reach 43 TWh, comprising 28.7 TWh from thermal sources, 9.2 TWh from wind, 3.7 TWh from solar, and 1.2 TWh from hydropower, confirming the rise of renewables.
Morocco also stands out in regional electricity trade and electrical equipment. By 2024, its total value reached $3.32 billion, placing the Kingdom in third place among Arab countries. It is the top electricity importer with $413.7 million, accounting for 33.6% of total regional imports, and the fourth exporter, primarily due to electricity production equipment. These flows make Morocco a strategic player in cross-border exchanges and regional energy integration.
On the social front, the Kingdom reports an exemplary record: 100% of households have access to electricity, joining 12 other Arab countries that have achieved total coverage. Individual consumption remains moderate, at 1,100 kWh per capita, well below the Arab average and high Gulf levels.
Through these performances in investments, renewable capacities, exports, and regional integration, Morocco positions itself as an Arab model for energy transition. Daman’s report highlights a country “undergoing technological and strategic transformation,” where a clear energy vision and massive investments make the Kingdom an indispensable pillar of the Arab energy landscape by 2025.
