Bouhal el al. mapped Morocco in accordance with climate zoning in order to compare the energy generated by concentrated solar power (CSP) systems, particularly parabolic trough systems. The results confirmed the cost-effectiveness of this technology on a large scale (less expensive and more productive).
The first large-scale electricity storage project in Morocco is the 460 MW Afourer Pumped Storage Power Station (PETS), commissioned in 2004. It consists of a hydraulic system composed of two 1.3 million-m3 water reservoirs connected by a pipeline with two hydroelectric production units between the basins.
Morocco's electricity consumption in TWh . In 2018, Morocco installed 34% of renewable energy (i.e. 3,700 MW), divided as follows: 1,770 MW, 1,220 MW and 711 MW respectively originate from hydroelectricity, wind power and solar energy .
Initiated in 2009, the Moroccan Solar Plan is a very ambitious project. A number of solar power plants have been planned and scheduled to be installed as part of this project. The Moroccan Agency for Solar Energy (MASEN) was set up specifically to execute these projects.
