        Morocco’s Institute of Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Training Jobs

        The government of Morocco has for over a decade embarked on a strategy to limit GHG emissions and increase the role of renewables in its energy mix. The government’s target is to reduce emissions by 42% by 2030 (17% unconditional, 25% conditional on international financing). To underpin the target, the government has a number of strategy documents, including the green plan and national energy strategy, which aims to reach 52% installed renewables generation capacity in electricity by 2030. This is expected to lead to the creation of over 50 000 new jobs in the clean energy sector. To support…
