Morocco’s exceptional solar resources, reaching 2,264 kWh/m²/year in southern regions, position the country to become Africa’s solar energy pioneer, new SolarPower Europe report reveals. Morocco’s solar power capacity could surge from 0.32 GW to 4.35 GW by 2028.
Morocco has launched one of the world’s largest solar energy projects costing an estimated $9 billion. The aim of the project was to create 2,000 megawatts of solar generation capacity by 2020. The Moroccan Agency for Solar Energy (MASEN), a public-private venture, was established to lead the project.
As of early 2025, fresh figures from the Moroccan Ministry of Energy show that solar energy alone now accounts for around 20% of the nation’s total electricity production. This marks a dramatic increase from just a decade ago, when Morocco relied heavily on imported fossil fuels.
The aim of the project was to create 2,000 megawatts of solar generation capacity by 2020. The Moroccan Agency for Solar Energy (MASEN), a public-private venture, was established to lead the project. The first plant, Ouarzazate Solar Power Station, was commissioned in 2016.
