Morocco has established itself as one of the most serious candidates for a competitive green hydrogen industry at the regional level, but a new UN report finds the regulatory architecture needed to support that ambition remains significantly underdeveloped, according to Le Matin.
It found that while strategic foundations exist, including a national hydrogen commission since 2019 and the Masen-led Morocco Offer launched in 2021, they have not yet been translated into operational rules tailored to hydrogen’s specific needs.
Ninety-one percent of institutions surveyed described interministerial coordination on hydrogen as limited or ineffective.
The report noted Morocco has yet to establish direct investment or operating cost support specifically for domestic hydrogen applications.
Its central recommendation is a formal interministerial coordination mechanism, alongside a unified permitting window, a national certification system, a gradual carbon tax and green public procurement mandates.
