Morocco Climate Targets and Policies Rated 'Almost Sufficient' by Climate Action Tracker
Morocco's climate action is progressing but still falls short of the 1.5°C Paris Agreement goal, with continued reliance on coal and fossil gas expanding infrastructure.
Morocco has strengthened its climate commitments through an enhanced NDC in 2021, which projects flattened emissions until 2030 and achievement of its unconditional target. However, the country remains heavily dependent on coal and has recently announced plans to expand fossil gas infrastructure, including LNG terminals and offshore gas exploration. These moves risk locking Morocco into a high‑emissions pathway. Climate Action Tracker rates Morocco's climate targets and policies as 'Almost sufficient,' meaning they are not yet aligned with the 1.5°C limit and require moderate improvements, including a firm coal phase‑out and higher renewable energy ambition.
