Morocco’s electricity production rose by 5.3% during the first eight months of 2025, compared with a 2.3% increase over the same period last year, according to data from the Directorate of Studies and Financial Forecasts (DEPF).

The rise was driven by a 7.5% increase in private generation and a 5.7% growth in output from the national utility ONEE, the DEPF said in its October report. Renewable power production under Law 13-09, however, dropped by 11% after soaring 39.3% a year earlier.

Electricity imports rose 27.5%, while exports fell sharply by 29.4%. Net energy demand accelerated from 3.3% to 6.7% year-on-year, reflecting strong domestic consumption, which jumped 15.4% by end-August.

Officials said the figures highlight robust energy demand driven by economic recovery and industrial growth, while underlining the need to strengthen renewable generation capacity.
