Belgium has expressed keen interest in Morocco’s green hydrogen program following a meeting of the Joint High Commission for Moroccan-Belgian Partnership held in Rabat.
Belgium’s show of interest comes from several European countries expressing their willingness to invest in and benefit from this attractive program in the coming years.
Belgian officials underscored their commitment to deepening cooperation in developing green energy solutions, including green hydrogen.
Energy experts underscored that the growing European interest in Morocco’s green hydrogen initiative stems from the need for sustainable energy sources to meet decarbonization commitments. The Kingdom offers attractive investment incentives for international partners seeking to capitalize on its future production capacity.
“The rush to form partnerships with Morocco in the energy transition coincides with the European Commission’s implementation of taxes on environmentally unfriendly industrial productions that contribute to carbon emissions,” Abdessamad Mlaoui, an expert in energy technologies and sustainable energy transition.
In a statement to Hespress Ar, he further explained, “Morocco has ambitious plans in renewable energies, aiming to achieve half of its energy uses from renewable sources by 2030, with the goal of carbon neutrality by 2050.”
The expert pointed out, “Morocco has made significant strides in this regard, especially with its recent reliance on wind and solar energy and its transition towards green hydrogen, which promises to be a future energy alternative.” For this reason, “Europe counts heavily on the Kingdom to benefit from its future production of green hydrogen.”
He underscored that “Europeans value not only Morocco’s infrastructure but also its political and economic stability, along with the incentives offered in these areas.”
