• Objective

The main objective of the project is to support the Morocco Government in developing a National Cooling Action Plan (NCAP). The NCAP aims to develop a strategy that meets the increasing demand for cooling driven by climate change, urbanization, and population growth. This includes ensuring access to cooling solutions across critical sectors such as space cooling in buildings, healthcare, food security, mobile AC and industrial process cooling, with a focus on sustainability and resilience.

The NCAP seeks to improve the energy efficiency of cooling systems, adopting climate-friendly refrigerants, and encouraging passive cooling methods to reduce environmental impacts. It also aims to implement policies that ensure affordable and equitable access to cooling, especially for vulnerable populations, addressing socio-economic aspects while minimizing environmental harm.

In addition, the NCAP will facilitate the collaboration between public and private sectors to align policies and promote market-driven, sustainable cooling solutions. The plan will also support Morocco’s international climate commitments, reduce cooling-related emissions (direct and indirect), and build climate resilience. That involves adopting low-emission, energy-efficient, and socially environmentally friendly cooling technologies that address the challenges posed by rising temperatures.

The current cooling practices in Morocco need enhancements to meet the growing demand without further harming the environment. Cooling is a major contributor to global warming through direct and indirect emissions, and under a business-as-usual scenario, energy consumption for cooling could worsen emissions and climate impacts. Therefore, the NCAP is essential to ensure a sustainable, equitable, and climate-resilient cooling future for Morocco.
