In an initiative that seeks to reduce energy consumption on a national scale, the ministry of energy said it will give financial bonuses to consumers whose consumption of electricity in November and December 2022 is lower than the 2021 bill.
The ministry said it would compare consumption in November-December 2022 to the same months of 2021, and give a bonus in 2023 to consumers who have saved the most energy.
The campaign hopes to save nearly 5% of energy or “even more,” said Minister of Energy Leila Benali.
5% of energy corresponds to the monthly consumption of a city the size of Tangier.
“This is an initiative that supports the usual awareness campaign on energy efficiency launched by the Ministry in coordination with its relevant agencies,” Benali told M24, MAP’s TV channel.
The Minister, who was accompanied by ONE Director General Abderrahim El Hafidi, said the campaign aims to reward consumers and encourage the to optimize their consumption of electricity and reduce its bill.
According to data provided by ONEE, Morocco’s consumption during the months of November and December 2021 was 5.5 TW/h. An assumption of a 5% reduction in consumption will result in savings of nearly 275 GW/h in November-December.
