1. Main figures and trends:
1.1. Energy bill, consumption and dependence:

 Morocco’s energy needs grow by 8%/year on average. In 2011, the Kingdom spent $10.7bn
The country is heavily dependent on external sources, importing up to 93% of its energy
supplies1. Oil and petroleum products account for the largest part of Morocco’s energy bill
(cf. Appendix for detailed statistics).

1.2. Natural Gas

 Morocco currently obtains almost all of its natural gas from its neighbour Algeria through
the Maghreb-Europe gas (MEG) pipeline which has linked Algeria with Spain through
Morocco since 1996. The gas is provided on the basis of a transit royalty in kind. The
Maghreb-Europe pipeline (MEG) underwent an extension started in 2003 and finished in
2005, blowing up the yearly capacity from 8.5 billion m3 (54.6MMboe) to 12.5billion m3
(80.3MMboe).

In 2005, natural gas effectively entered the energy landscape in Morocco with the Tahaddart
combined cycle gas turbine2 (CCGT) coming to stream. Morocco draws 500 million m3 of gas per year
(47.2MMcfd) from transit royalties in kind from the MEG pipeline to supply Tahaddart. The facility
has a net installed capacity of 384 MW and is located 30 kilometres from the city of Tangiers.
Other big projects calling for natural gas include the Ain Beni Mathar integrated solar combined
cycle plant which uses about 350 million m3 of gas per year (33MMcfd). Also Renault-Nissan’s
industrial complex “Renault Tanger Méditerranée” located near Tangiers should require 20 million
m3 of gas per year. The starting of these projects scheduled between 2009 and 2012 boosts
Morocco’s need for gas as it represents a bigger share in the country’s energy consumption mix.
2
Wikipedia: In a combined cycle power plant (CCPP), or combined cycle gas turbine (CCGT) plant, a gas turbine
generator generates electricity and heat in the exhaust is used to make steam, which in turn drives a steam
turbine to generate additional electricity. This last step enhances the efficiency of electricity generation. Many
new gas power plants in North America and Europe are of this type.

 Morocco could seek diversification in gas supplies to cut down its reliance on the Algerian
sourced MEG line .(From The Economist Intelligence Unit, 2010)
The government is likely to harbour concerns about relying too heavily on Algeria for its
energy supplies, owing to the political tension between the two North African countries as a
result of Algeria's long-standing support for the Polisario Front, the main group campaigning
for the independence of the disputed territory of Western Sahara. The land border between
the two neighbours has been closed since 1994. It is not clear whether the imminent start-up
of the Medgaz pipeline, which runs directly from Algeria to Spain, will have an impact on the
volumes of gas sent through the MEG line.[cf Map in Appendixe for pipelines]
The Ain Beni Mathar plant is said to rely 95% on gas, despite the strong media coverage of its
solar component3. Tahaddart and Ain Beni Mathar cannot function in parallel because of
insufficient gas supplies in the country. This situation outlines how much Morocco depends on
Algerian gas currently which is serious concern for the Kingdom : Europe and Algeria are building
a new pipeline which will go directly from Algeria to Europe without transiting through Morocco,
making the future of the MEG’s and the current gas royalty rather uncertain.
 About Liquefied Natural Gas:

 Diversification into LNG
 SNI and Akwa, two Moroccan investment groups have jointly announced plans to
invest in a receiving terminal for LNG that would import between 5bn and 10bn cu
metres of gas per year [32 to 64MMboe/yr]. .(From The Economist Intelligence
Unit4, 2010)
 Policy in favour of national resources (From LaVieEco, digital business magazine
notorious in Morocco, 2003)
The [former] minister of energy and mines, Mr Boutaleb, claims that the private sector will
solely bear the costs of building infrastructures for the transport, reception and
transformation of LNG.
The [former] minister insists that in case of the discovery of natural gas in Morocco, national
production would hold priority over other supply sources in terms of integration of the
national infrastructure for gas.
Note: it is worth pointing out that according to the article from LaVieEco dating back from 2003:
 high costs related to gas transport are a determinant parameter in implementing Morocco’s
energy policy / gas commercialisation.
 Sources at ONE5 allegedly confirmed that Mohammedia’s gas turbines were initially meant
to be connected to the MEG line. Because no party wanted to share the costs of a
connecting line with ONE, they decided on building a new power plant near the MEG.

1.3. Energy demand and socio-economic development
 The energy bill rises at a steady pace as a consequence of climbing oil prices as well as
internal growing energy consumption. This report will focus on internal drivers of energy
consumption in Morocco and stress the importance for Morocco to develop national energy
resources. The following graph shows that regardless of the market, Morocco consumes
more energy every year, and Moroccans follow that same trend.

 The consumption increase should be appreciated positively as a sign of industrial
and economic development.
 Energy is a vector of social development, making access to energy a key objective in
favour of a better integration of the population (ndlr: rural zones, areas in
development).
 Numbers on social and economic development

 Pop. 1.1%/yr increase equal to global average.
 GDP growth: 4.3%.

Oil & Gas consumption
Energy consumption is up to 16.1ktoe in 2010, on a rise which is heavily driven by a growing demand
of electricity7. Electricity consumption has grown at an average rate of 7% per year for the past ten
years (ONE,MEM), essentially because of the generalised access to electricity and the country’s
economic and industrial development.
 Access to electricity over the territory has dramatically expanded, as a result of the PERG8
programme;
 PERG is a state programme started in 1996 aimed at providing electricity throughout
the whole territory in rural areas.
 Morocco via ONE implied a budget of DH20bn (approx.. US$2.3bn) to build
electricity transport infrastructures as well decentralized electric production
facilities.
 The programme benefited to 11.5 million citizens, achieving a “rural electrification
rate” of 96.8% up from 18% when the programme started. ONE affirms that the
PERG is fostering local industrialisation and demand for energy.
 ONE Distribution sales to Domestic clients has increased by as much as 8.1% over
2008-2009. ONE saw its clients portfolio increase by 6.2% from 2008-2009, while
ONE distribution increased by 5.92%.

 Industrialisation and economic growth:

 Electricity sales to VHT, HV, MV accounts increased by 5.3% over 2009-2010,
 40+% of total ONE Distribution WH is attributed to the Industrial and Agriculture
sectors in 2010.

2.2. Electricity mix

 Fossil fuels are a major source of electricity production: thermoelectricity accounts for
almost 2/3 of electricity in 2010.

Hydro power Thermic Wind power
Coal is the most used fuel to generate electricity, and Morocco imports 100% of its coal needs.
Despite the fact that coal is cheap and globally abundant, its use highlights a discrepancy with
Morocco’s ambition to cut its energy dependency. The increasing need for electricity puts stress on
Morocco’s national supply, forcing the country to import electricity from Spain and Algeria –imports
from Spain account for 15% of net electricity called in 2010 (likely generated from the gas
transititing throught the MEG to Europe).
8
It is worth noting the role that natural gas and petroleum play in electricity production. Figures from
2008 to 2010 show a slight increase in the share of Natural Gas and Fuel/Gasoil. Because
thermoelectricity represents an important source of electricity in the face of Morocco’s growing
electricity needs, petroleum products stand as a determinant combustible and a valuable resource
within Morocco’s energy policy.

Natural gas Imported electricity Wind power
By 2030, the need for primary energy will rise to up to 40 MMtoe, while electricity consumption will
rise to up to 85bWH, requiring the use of 58% of the country’s primary energy supply up from 41%
currently.
MEM’s short/mid-term strategy for electricity production relies on fossil fuels: while maintaining
focus on coal, the government’s strategy will emphasize the use of natural gas. Wind power and
hydro power benefit from big investments but are long-term targets. Natural gas and condensate
could represent a 30% share of combustibles if made economically available, replacing coal and fuel.
The use of coal would decrease to represent 19% of primary sources of energy. Fuel’s share would
decrease to 8%.
Petroleum products play an important part in the short-term answer to electrical needs. The real
value in short and mid-term is in natural gas: it is a domestic source of energy which complies with
the government’s near-term focus in terms of combustible. Domestic natural gas would supports
Morocco in cutting down energy dependency in the face of a challenging social and economic
expansion.
 A couple numbers on petroleum products:

 Gasoil 45% of petroleum products in 2010, rising by 5.2%/year on average for 2005-
2010 - Sensitive sectors: transport, agriculture.
 Fuel Oil 23% of petroleum products, rising by 5.56%/year on average for 2005-2010
- Sensitive sectors: home heating, heavy industrial use.
 MEM’s strategy: provide electricity for the period 2009-201 by equipping the
country with 6000+MW production facilities, of which 11% fuel oil turbines, third
important behind coal and wind power.9

3.3. A look on the supply-side: LNG facilities
At the moment, Morocco levies natural gas on the MEG pipeline. But without the capacity to store
LNG, this mostly goes to the Tahaddart combined cycle power station. Morocco uses all of the
transit royalties already and energy demand keeps growing. There is subsequently a need for the
country to expand or diversify its gas supplies.
SNI & Akwa LNG port terminal and storage plant (Ongoing)
 Proposal (2010) by investors:

 Société Nationale d'Investissement, controlled by Siger -entity managing the
Moroccan royal family's wealth
 Akwa, a family-owned Moroccan energy group.
 Joint venture, teaming up:
 Afriquia Gaz, a subsidiary of Akwa and the leader in gas distribution in Morocco
 ONE
 SAMIR
 Forecasted capacity: gas import 5bn-10bn m3/yr (32 to 64MMboe/yr)13
 Usage:60% to electricity, 20% in Mohammedia refinery, 20% for the industrial sector to
replace Naphta14
 Locations under consideration include: Mohammedia Tangiers or Jorf Lasfar, industrial zone
and phosphate processing centre to the south of Rabat.
 Feasibility study by Belgium-based Tractebel Engineering, a Suez subsidiary 15

Conclusion:
 Energy demand is strong, growing and driven by
 Demographic expansion
 Economic development supported by international investments and major industrial
projects
 There is stress on Morocco’s capacity to provide electricity, it seems unrealistic for the
country to carry on with imports when energy needs are forecasted to double within 10
years.
 Highly dependent on international suppliers of Oil, gas and electricity, Morocco is
diversifying its sources of primary energy and investing in its own transport and storage
infrastructures
 The electricity plants open an important window of opportunity for fuel and gas producers
MEM’s strategy: provide electricity for the period 2009-201 by equipping the country with
6000+MW production facilities, of which 11% fuel oil turbines, third important behind coal
and wind powe
 The MEG gas levy suffices for now but

 The amounts of gas Morocco can puncture from it are reaching a ceiling outgrown
by the country’s consumption
 Relationships between Morocco and Algeria are still tense
LNG storage and import facilities are being considered as a diversification solution but infrastructure
costs are a barrier, leading the government to prioritise domestic hydrocarbons.
Social, economic and industrial development, combined with Morocco’s commitment to achieve
energy security put Longreach in a strong position.
