Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
A power purchase agreement (PPA) is a contract between an electricity producer and a buyer. Here’s an overview of the contract to help you understand it better :
- Parties involved : PPA involves two main parties: the power producer – Gaia Energy Morocco – the supplier of renewable energy (solar and wind farms), and the buyer, which can be a company, municipality or entity looking to purchase electricity.
- Electricity purchase: The buyer agrees to purchase a specific quantity of electricity, usually at an agreed price (lower than that of the usual distributor), from the producer over a specific period, from 15 to 25 years.
- Emphasis on renewable energies: The generator generally produces renewable electricity, such as solar, wind or hydro power, in line with the buyer’s sustainability objectives (positive environmental impact, reduced carbon emissions, cleaner air and preservation of natural resources).
- Financial and environmental benefits: PPAs can offer financial benefits thanks to fixed energy prices, saving money over the long term compared with fluctuating market prices. In addition, PPAs contribute to environmental sustainability by supporting clean energy production and reducing carbon footprints.
- Contractual terms: Details of the agreement include contract duration, pricing, responsibilities of each party, and any penalties or termination clauses.
- Flexibility and offsetting energy costs: PPAs offer flexibility, enabling buyers to secure a stable energy supply while avoiding the upfront costs of building and maintaining their own renewable energy infrastructure.
PPA Process
The Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) process involves several key steps:
- Initial discussions and creation of a roadmap: The process begins with preliminary discussions between the power producer – Gaia Energy Maroc – and the potential buyer. The parties outline their interests, objectives and initial conditions. A term sheet – a non-binding document – can be created to summarize the key points of the proposed power purchase agreement. It includes details such as the duration of the agreement, the volume of electricity, the pricing structure, indexation clauses and other essential conditions.
- Negotiation and due diligence: Once the principle of the term sheet has been accepted, negotiations begin to finalize the terms and conditions. At the same time, both parties carry out due diligence, assessing the technical, financial and regulatory aspects to ensure the feasibility and viability of the project.
- Signing the Letter of Intent: Once negotiations have been completed and both parties are satisfied with the terms set out in the contract, they proceed to sign it. This step formalizes the preliminary agreement and signals the intention to go ahead with the drafting of the final PPA.
- PPA drafting and legal review: Once the term sheet has been signed, the detailed PPA is prepared. Legal teams on both sides review and finalize the agreement, ensuring that it complies with legal, regulatory and industry standards. Any revisions or clarifications are addressed during this phase.
- Signing the final PPA: Once all parties are satisfied with the terms and conditions, and the legal review is complete, the final PPA is signed. It formalizes the contractual commitment between producer and buyer, defining obligations, responsibilities and agreed conditions.
- Energy delivery and compliance: When the renewable energy infrastructure becomes operational, electricity is generated and supplied to the buyer according to the conditions specified in the power purchase agreement. Both parties adhere to the agreed terms, with regular monitoring, reporting and compliance with regulatory requirements.
PPA Benefits
Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) offer several advantages to electricity buyers and renewable energy suppliers:
- Price stability: PPAs often provide a fixed or predictable price for electricity over a defined period. This stability protects buyers from fluctuating market prices and enables them to better control energy costs.
- Cost savings: Buyers can potentially save on energy costs over the long term thanks to the competitive prices offered by renewable energy suppliers. PPAs provide electricity at lower rates than traditional utilities.
- Environmental impact: PPAs promote the use of renewable energy sources, reduce carbon footprints and encourage sustainable development. Buyers can align themselves with environmental objectives by sourcing cleaner energy.
- Energy security: Long-term PPAs guarantee a reliable and constant supply of energy, which enhances the energy security of buyers, especially companies that depend on an uninterrupted power supply.
- No upfront investment: PPAs often require no upfront investment from buyers, as the renewable energy supplier finances, builds and operates the infrastructure. This gives buyers access to clean energy without a large capital outlay.
- Hedging against price volatility: For renewable energy suppliers, PPAs offer a stable revenue stream, reducing the risks associated with volatile energy markets and providing financial stability for project development and operation.
- Regulatory benefits: PPAs promote compliance with environmental regulations and sustainable development objectives set by governments or industries, strengthening a company’s reputation and compliance efforts.
- Flexibility and customization: PPAs can be tailored to meet specific energy needs, allowing flexibility in contract terms, energy volume and duration to suit different buyer preferences.
- Economic development: PPAs often contribute to local economic development by creating jobs and supporting the growth of renewable energy infrastructure.
- Risk mitigation: Buyers and suppliers alike benefit from the risk mitigation strategies incorporated into PPAs, which address issues related to technological advances, regulatory changes and operational risks.
Overall, PPAs present a win-win scenario, offering financial, environmental and operational benefits to both parties involved, promoting the growth of renewable energies while meeting buyers’ energy needs.

- Net Metering Legislation (Law n°58-15) in Morocco
The Moroccan government passed the Net Metering Law at the end of 2015. This new law complements the Renewable Energy Development Act by introducing a net metering system for wind and solar photovoltaic power plants connected to the high-voltage grid and, later, for those connected at medium- and low-voltage levels.
- National Energy Strategy in Morocco
The Moroccan government implemented the national energy strategy in 2009, with the following objectives: to increase the share of renewable energies in total electricity generation capacity to 52% by 2030; to reduce energy consumption in buildings, industry and transport by 2030; to install an additional 3,900 MW of combined-cycle technology running on imported natural gas by 2030.

Legislative and Regulatory Framework
- Law n°13-09 on renewable energies is part of the framework for the production of electricity from renewable sources.
Law n°13-09 on renewable energies was promulgated by Dahir n°1-10-16 of February 11, 2010. Its purpose is “to intervene with a view to developing and adapting the renewable energies sector to future technological developments, and to encourage private initiatives”.
This law introduces 4 major innovations:
Opening up electricity production from renewable energy sources to competition.
Access to the national MV, HV and EHV grid for all producers of electricity from renewable sources.
The possibility of exporting electricity from renewable sources using the national grid and interconnections.
The possibility for a developer to build a direct transmission line in the event of insufficient capacity on the national transmission network and interconnections.
- Solar Zoning.
The decision setting out the areas in which solar power plants can be built was adopted and published in the Official Bulletin on September 26, 2022.
