National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty II (NSGRP)
…renewable energy targets. The strategy targets from 2010 to 2015 were as follows:
Non-hydro renewable power generation: 4% to 6%
Electricity generation: 1,064MW to 1,722MW
Transmission and distribution lines: total length doubled
Electricity access: 2% to 6% in rural areas, 14% to 18% nationally
The Ministry of Energy and Minerals (MEM) added the small hydro portion to the target in its 2011 Medium Term Strategic Plan 2012-16.
MEM’s “Electricity Supply Industry Reform Strategy and Roadmap” added modest capacity projections of "envisaged growth" of 100MW of solar and 200MW each of geothermal and wind by 2025. -

National Agency for the Development of Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency 16.09
…reforming and enhancing the Moroccan energy sector, the government passed a law in January 2010 establishing the National Agency for the development of Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency. This agency will replace the current Centre for the Development of Renewable Energy created in 1982.
The new public body will contribute to the implementation of government policy in the energy sector and provide deployment roadmaps. The agency will be responsible for preparing national plans for each renewable energy sector and act as a central figure in promoting international co-operation to support major deployment policies, such as the national wind programme… -

Cabinet of Ministers Ruling for Wind and Solar Thermal Electric Energy quotas
…calendar for the years to come; focusing on Wind and Solar Thermal Electric renewable energy technologies, and up to the end of 2012 and 2013 respectively. It establishes a power plant commissioning roadmap which allocates an annual average installed capacity slightly higher than 1,700 MW for wind power and 500 MW for solar thermal electric power. The Ruling intends to administer the amount of renewable energy installed so as to offer a sensible apportionment of consumer costs over the years, as well as to provide technical feasibility of renewable energy integration into the electrical grid. At the same time…

Public-Led Offshore Wind Auction Promotion Plan
…Promotion Plan introduces a dedicated public-led allocation within Korea’s fixed-price renewable electricity auction system. In the 2025 first-half wind auction, the government announced around 1,250 MW of fixed-bottom offshore wind capacity, including approximately 500 MW for the newly created public-led auction segment and 750 MW for the general segment. The measure operationalises the offshore wind auction roadmap and strengthens supply-chain and energy-security evaluation criteria. It should be treated as a feed-in premium or fixed-price competitive procurement scheme because selected projects receive long-term fixed-price contracts for renewable electricity.

6th Basic Plan for District Energy Supply (2024–2028)
…shifting the sector from quantitative expansion toward cleaner heat sources. It targets district heating supply to 4.46 million households by 2028, up from 3.78 million in 2023, and expansion of industrial-complex district energy sites to 54, up from 45 in 2023. The plan expects district heating to cover 21.3% of all homes by 2028 and estimates cumulative benefits of 45 million toe in energy savings and 92 million tonnes of greenhouse gas reductions. Key measures include greater use of unused heat, a clean heat roadmap, renewable heat certification, national heat-map upgrading and heat-trading guidelines.

National Technical Regulator for Consumer Energy Resources
As part of the 2026-27 Federal Budget, the Government announced $97.2 million over 5 years to support the development of a National Technical Regulator for Consumer Energy Resources. The new regulator will develop, coordinate and streamline regulation of CER to ensure its effective integration and management in Australia's energy systems. The national technical regulator is one of the priority reform under the National Consumer Energy Resources Roadmap - which was agreed by energy ministers in July 2024.

Regulation on urban district heating and cooling systems
Royal Decree 997/2025 introduces urgent measures to reinforce electricity system resilience. It requires CNMC reporting and inspections on voltage control and supply restoration, tasks the system operator with proposing reforms on oscillation damping, ancillary services and technical restrictions, simplifies authorisation for co-located electrochemical storage, defines repowering, requires a national repowering roadmap, and sets deadlines for distribution grid extensions.

Ensuring a Strong Labour Dimension for Just and Inclusive Energy Transitions
IEA Clean Energy Labour Council Workers play a critical role in the global energy system, providing key services across many areas of the energy sector. To give a greater voice to the labour perspective in energy and climate policy discussions, the IEA Executive Director, Dr. Fatih Birol, convened the Clean Energy Labour Council in 2022. The Labour Council brings together representatives of the world’s most important national trade unions and trade union confederations, as well as prominent thinkers on the topic, to foster engagement between the IEA, energy policy makers, and the labour movement.The IEA Clean Energy Labour…

Global Hydrogen Review 2025 Production prospects to 2030
Only a small fraction of the total project pipeline can realistically start operating by 2030, highlighting policy gaps The potential low-emissions hydrogen production from announced projects that could be available by 2030 has declined compared to in Global Hydrogen Review 2024. With only five years to 2030, and taking into account typical development cycles, which stretch from three to six years, realising the full pipeline of projects seems very difficult. In addition, we estimate that half of the announced projects face deferred start dates compared to the commercial operation date announced by developers. Delays are particularly acute among electrolyser projects…

Global Hydrogen Review 2026 Executive summary
The conflict in the Middle East has disrupted global production and trade of hydrogen-based products The Middle East is a major producer of hydrogen-based products, and the conflict has strongly impacted their production. The Middle East is home to around one-sixth of global hydrogen production, the majority dedicated to the production of chemicals, fertilisers and refined oil products. The region accounts for more than 10% of global refining capacity, ammonia and urea production, and close to 17% of methanol production. Several refineries and petrochemical plants have halted operations due to supply disruptions and the impossibility of exporting…
