« Following the meeting that We chaired for this purpose, the government developed the “Morocco Offer” project for green hydrogen. In this regard, we urge the government to undertake the rapid and qualitative implementation of this project, so as to enhance the assets available to our country in this area and to respond as best as possible to the projects carried out by global investors in this promising sector..»

« In order to place Morocco in the club of countries with high potential in this sector of the future, and to respond to the multiple projects led by investors and world leaders, the Sovereign has given His High Instructions to develop, as soon as possible, an operational and incentive "Morocco Offer", covering the entire value chain of the green hydrogen sector in Morocco. It should include, in addition to the regulatory and institutional framework, the necessary infrastructure scheme. »


Thanks to the enlightened vision of His Majesty the King, may God assist Him, Morocco is playing an important part in the global energy transition and increasing its position as an energy hub. With its significant solar and wind energy potential, the Kingdom is one of the countries with the largest potential for green hydrogen generation, capable of meeting more than 4% of global demand by 2030. This is a significant potential for the Kingdom, which sees it as a way to decarbonize its economy, generate wealth, and create jobs.
