Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) to the Paris Agreement: Morocco

[摘要] Morocco's first NDC, submitted 19 September 2016, is an update of its intended nationally determined contribution of 5 June 2015. The NDC includes a commitment to reduce GHG emissions by 42% below business as-usual (BAU) levels by 2030, conditional on international support. Its unconditional target is 17% below BAU levels by 2030. According to the NDC, Morocco’s GHG mitigation goals rely in large part on an important transformation of the country’s energy sector. It aims to reduce the country’s heavy reliance on foreign energy sources and increase the share of renewable energy, while responding to growing demand for energy to ensure the socioeconomic development and well-being of its citizens. The primary goals that underlie this energy transition are the following: Reaching over 52% of installed electricity production capacity from renewable sources by 2030. Reducing energy consumption by 15% by 2030. Substantially reducing public fossil fuel subsidies, building on reforms already undertaken in recent years. Substantially increasing the use of natural gas, through infrastructure projects allowing liquefied natural gas imports
