Morocco — Energy Infrastructure
OverWatts maps 94 energy assets in Morocco across 11 layers — the 62nd-largest mapped base of 157 countries. They include 55 power plants, 21 cement plants and 4 grid storages. Operating generation capacity is 9.6 GW, led by coal at 40%. Refining capacity is about 200 kb/d.
The companies named on the most assets are Office National de l'Electricité et de l'Eau Potable (Morocco) (16), Office National de L'Electricite de L'Eau Potable (12) and LafargeHolcim Maroc SA (10), counting both ownership and operatorship. Half of Morocco's mapped assets in service predate 2010 (median commissioning year of the 48 with a known date), 14 came online in the past decade and the oldest still listed is Bin El Ouidane hydroelectric plant, dating from 1953. 38 projects are under construction or proposed, led by AMUN solar farm (7.5 GW).
Operating generation capacity by fuel
Utility-scale sites of 100 MW and above. Distributed generation — rooftop solar especially — is outside the tracker, so this runs below national installed capacity.
