Unlocking Electric Mobility Potential in MENA: Executive Summary – Morocco

Electrification is one of the main ways to decarbonize the transport sector in Morocco, and e-mobility uptake could present opportunities to increase renewable energy-based electricity consumption. This assessment and scale-up analysis of Morocco focuses on regular buses (non-BRT in Rabat), taxi vans in Casablanca, and private passenger vehicles. 

The report takes advantage of several studies that are being conducted in parallel. Public buses in the capital, Rabat, and taxi vans represent a significant share of public transport and are understudied. Casablanca was chosen for the analysis of taxi vans, as it has the largest population, the biggest fleet, the greatest use of taxis, and a good stakeholder’s organization and involvement in the decarbonization process.
