The National Agency for Energy Management (ANME) launches “Shams,” a program designed to help small and medium-sized enterprises produce their own electricity through photovoltaic solar energy. It is supported by the African Development Bank.
The ANME’s Director General, Nafaa Bakkari, announced the launch on Thursday on the occasion of the 4th edition of the International Energy Transition Fair, according to TAP agency.
Favorable financing terms
According to him, the program will offer flexible and exceptional financing mechanisms allowing SMEs to invest in self-generation of electricity.
The aim is to help them control their energy bills and strengthen their competitiveness on international markets.
More than 150,000 Prosol Elec installations
This initiative adds to other programs supporting the energy transition, including Prosol Elec. According to Nafaa Bakkari, the latter has surpassed 150,000 low-voltage installations, for a total power of around 466 MW as of the end of April 2026.
He also indicated that the evaluation of the sixth round of the authorization regime concluded, in September 2026, with the acceptance of 309 solar project applications, for a total capacity of around 455 MW. A sign, according to him, of growing private sector confidence in renewable energy.
The public buildings program advances
The energy transition program in public institutions is expected to cover around 350 buildings. 112 projects are already in operation on the low voltage network and 47 on the medium voltage network, while 24.9 MW of installed capacities are in the final commissioning phase.
Simplify procedures and adapt the grids
For the official, the next step involves simplifying and accelerating administrative procedures without compromising quality and safety standards.
ANME is also working on developing the grids to increase their capacity to integrate renewables, while preparing for the challenges of storage, electric mobility, smart grids, and regional energy interconnections.
