The Moroccan Agency for Sustainable Energy (Mazen) revealed that it has launched a request for proposals to select the private partner to finance, build and operate the Naseem Al Shamal wind energy programme, which has a production capacity of about 400 megawatts. The program contains two wind fields with a total production capacity of the first field of about 150 megawatts, provided that the production capacity is approximately 400 megawatts. The second field has about 250 megawatts.

This step comes in light of Morocco's strategy to increase the contribution of renewable energy to the country's total energy. It aims to reach 52% of production capacity by 2030, compared to 37.6% currently, by increasing investments in solar and wind energy in addition to reducing carbon emissions.

This reflects the commitment of the Kingdom of Morocco to transition to a cleaner, more environmentally friendly and more sustainable energy system, and this comes as a step aimed at being a pioneer and distinguished in the field of renewable energy in Africa. With the aim of promoting the transition to clean energy and reducing carbon emissions.

Since 2009, the Kingdom has launched a clean energy development strategy that currently provides Morocco with about 39% of its electricity production, and aims to raise this rate to 52% during the year 2030.

Last December, Minister of Energy Transition and Sustainable Development Leila Ben Ali announced that Morocco uses renewable energy to cover 40% of its total energy needs, supported by the specific projects it owns in light of the investment program that may contribute to enhancing renewable energy production. To cover about 52% of its energy need by 2030.

At the end of 2022, the Moroccan phosphate giant, the Office Chérifien des Phosphates, revealed a project to produce one million tons of green ammonia during the year 2027 and 3.2 million tons during the year 2032, which would raise fertilizer production from 12 million tons annually to 20 million.
