But it’s hardly industrialized right?

So is that a fair comparison?

It actually sits right about in the middle of all countries for percentage of GDP from industrial sectors.

It's pretty heavily fossil-fuel powered right now, but like most of the rest of the world Morocco is planning to capture most of its growth in energy demand with renewables. Because, getting back to the original discussion, it'd be idiotic to choose fossil fuels over renewables in 2026.

100% agree with you. Especially with the amount of sun they get, would be a great candidate for Solar.

Renewables also seem to be the best pathway for many nations to attain some level of energy independence (which is NOT the same as oil independence though).

Are you, like, just not very into reading things or remembering things or is it just one of those things where you're stuck in the 1980s and haven't updated your books since then.

Yeah, clearly I haven't done any meaningful reading regarding Morocco. I will read up more to fix the gaps in my knowledge. :-)
