Renewable Energy & Natural Resources
Renewable Energy :
The renewable energy sector is growing rapidly worldwide, with solutions such as solar energy, wind energy, and hydropower becoming increasingly competitive and sustainable. Morocco stands out as a leading player in Africa and the Arab world for the development of green energy technologies, thanks to its favorable geographic location and strong political will to promote the energy transition.
With a favorable natural environment and abundant solar and wind resources, Morocco is rapidly transforming its energy landscape, with large-scale projects like the Noor Solar Park in Ouarzazate, one of the largest solar plants in the world, and increasing wind energy capacity along its Atlantic coast. These projects demonstrate the country’s commitment to expanding renewable energy, offering a unique opportunity for international investors.
Morocco is one of the most advanced African countries in the clean energy sector, with a clear strategy and government policies aimed at creating a favorable investment environment. Fiscal incentives, stable regulations, and a growing demand for sustainable energy solutions make Morocco an ideal destination for investing in renewable energy.
The country has set ambitious goals for the future, aiming to produce 52% of its energy from renewable sources by 2030, further solidifying its position as a leader in the green energy market.

Natural Resources
The natural resources sector encompasses a wide range of activities related to the extraction, management, and trade of raw materials essential to the global economy. This sector begins with mining extraction, which involves the extraction of metallic minerals such as gold, copper, and lead, as well as non-metallic minerals like salt, gypsum, clay, and precious stones. Alongside this, there is the extraction of fossil fuels, which includes oil, natural gas, and coal—crucial resources for energy and industry.
Another key aspect is the trade of minerals and natural resources, which includes the export of precious metals, coal, and construction materials. The management of water resources is equally important, involving activities that range from the distribution and conservation of water to desalination and the construction of water infrastructure to ensure the availability of drinking water.
In the agricultural sector, agriculture and the management of forest resources
significantly contribute to the economy, including the cultivation of agricultural products and the extraction of timber for paper and other materials. Fishing and marine resources represent another essential sector, with activities ranging from commercial fishing to aquaculture, as well as the extraction of marine salt.
Geothermal energy, which harnesses the Earth’s heat for the production of thermal and electrical energy, is another significant aspect of natural resources. In addition, there is the collection of building materials, such as sand, gravel, and limestone, which are essential for the construction industry. Finally, the natural resources sector also includes recycling and waste management activities, which help reduce environmental impact by recovering materials like metals and plastics for sustainable use.

These activities, although diversified, are all interconnected and vital for the functioning of modern economies and the growth of various industrial sectors. The continuous development and exploitation of natural resources offer vast opportunities for investment and economic growth.
Investment Opportunities in Morocco and Tunisia
Morocco and Tunisia are strategic countries for investment in the natural resources sector, thanks to their abundant resources and investor-friendly policies. Both countries offer opportunities in various fields:
–Morocco is one of the world’s leading producers of phosphates, with a significant mining industry that also includes marine salt, non-ferrous metals, and clay.
Furthermore, the country has a strong coal extraction industry and possesses
natural resources that support its agriculture and fishing sectors.
– Tunisia is a key player in the production of phosphates and marine salt, with
significant deposits of coal and oil. Tunisia also has a thriving agricultural sector,
with crops such as cereals, fruits, and vegetables, and valuable marine resources
for the fishing and aquaculture industries.
Both countries are also favorable for foreign investment due to advantageous fiscal policies, special economic zones, and incentives for the mining and agricultural industries.
The natural resources in Morocco and Tunisia are the backbone of numerous industrial sectors, including construction, chemicals, energy, and manufacturing, creating ample opportunities for global investors.
An area in which JKMB has particular expertise is in the marine salt trade, an
increasingly important sector, especially in countries like Morocco and Tunisia, where marine salt represents a significant economic resource. Our experience in the trade and management of marine salt extraction and distribution operations allows our clients to enter this market with expert guidance, ensuring efficient and sustainable management of resources.
