A long-awaited decree enabling companies and individuals to generate their own renewable electricity came into effect in Morocco on June 9, 2026. However, the framework’s effectiveness is currently limited by several factors. A supplementary decree remains stalled, hindering full implementation. The resale cap for excess energy is fixed at 20%, potentially discouraging investment. Critically, the current regulations lack supporting measures to incentivize broader adoption of self-generation. Experts suggest the current framework represents an initial step rather than a fully functional and encouraging system for renewable energy self-production in Morocco. The decree’s ultimate success hinges on addressing these outstanding issues.
