Panels on your flat roof power the house while you use it, lighten your bill and, with batteries, keep the lights on during power cuts. MAGGMALIGHT surveys, installs and commissions, in Marrakech and anywhere in Morocco.
During the day, the panels power the house and recharge the batteries: you buy almost nothing from the grid.
With 2,800 to 3,400 hours of sunshine a year, Morocco is one of the countries where a solar panel produces the most.
Every kWh you produce and use at home is one kWh less to pay for, every month, for the whole life of the system.
In summer, the panels produce the most in the hot hours, when the air conditioning runs: production follows your use.
With batteries, the fridge, the lighting, the internet router and the alarm stay powered when the grid goes down.
A farm, a remote house or a building site gets its own power plant, without waiting for a connection.
Panels last 25 years and more, with a 25–30 year performance warranty from most makers, and need little more than a regular rinse.
Every kWh from your roof is one kWh less to generate in the country’s thermal power stations.
Two figures from your electricity bill are enough for a first order of magnitude.
Suggested power, without batteries
2 kWp
To cover much of your evenings as well: about 4 kWp with about 10 kWh of batteries (hybrid system).
Above 11 kW, the system needs a connection agreement from the grid operator.
Get a detailed surveyEnter your consumption per month, between 30 and 200,000 kWh.
An indicative estimate for Marrakech, at about 1,700 kWh per kWp a year, with unshaded panels facing south and the average price per kWh on your bill. Without batteries, the suggested power covers your daytime use: surplus is not bought back yet on low voltage. The survey takes account of your roof, your hours and your tariffs.
The inverter sits at the heart of every system: at every moment, it chooses where the house’s electricity comes from, panels, batteries or grid. The arrows show the path: orange for the sun, green for the batteries, blue for the grid.
Grid-tied system
The panels supply your appliances first; the grid makes up the rest at night and on cloudy days. With no batteries, it is the simplest and least expensive solution.
Hybrid system
Grid and batteries together: the day’s surplus is stored for the evening, and the backed-up circuits keep their power during an outage.
Off-grid system
For a site with no grid: by day, the panels power the site and charge the batteries, which take over in the evening and at night.
Standalone solar lighting
Street lights, floodlights and garden bollards with their own panel and battery: no trench, no cable, for paths, car parks and gardens.
| Criterion | Grid-tied | Hybrid | Off-grid |
|---|---|---|---|
| Batteries | No | Yes | Yes, essential |
| Evening and night | The grid | The batteries, then the grid | The batteries (and a backup generator if needed) |
| During a power cut | Shuts down for safety | Backed-up circuits keep their power | Not affected: no grid |
| Budget | The lowest | Medium: the batteries on top | The highest for the same needs |
| Upkeep | Panel cleaning, a yearly check | The same, and watching the batteries | The same, and watching the batteries and the backup |
| Ideal for | Mostly daytime use | Evenings, power cuts | Sites with no grid |
Monocrystalline, 450 to 600 Wp each today, with a product warranty and a performance warranty (often 25 to 30 years). Facing due south and tilted at about 30° in Marrakech for the best output over the year.
On a flat roof, the most common case in Morocco, on a pitched roof, as a car-park canopy or on the ground: ballasted or fixed without harming the waterproofing, and designed for the wind.
It turns the direct current of the panels into alternating current, single-phase or three-phase. Grid-tied, hybrid or off-grid depending on the solution, with an app to follow production.
Usually lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4): several thousand cycles, no upkeep. Their capacity, in kWh, is worked out from your evening and backup needs.
On the DC and AC sides: isolators, fuses or circuit breakers, surge protectors and earthing, in a dedicated enclosure, fitted by our electricians.
UV-resistant solar cable, neat routing to the consumer unit, tests, settings and a walk-through of the monitoring app.
The protection and the connection to the consumer unit are electrical work: our electrical works service.
A solar street light carries its own panel and battery: by day the panel charges the battery; at dusk the LED switches on by itself. No cable to run, no trench to dig: the answer for paths, car parks, roads and sites with no grid, for municipalities, hotels, estates and homeowners.
Since 9 June 2026, the implementing decree of law 82-21, published in the Official Bulletin of 9 March 2026, sets the rules for producing your own electricity, as a household or a business.
A simple prior declaration, for a system connected to the low-voltage grid or not connected at all: this covers most houses and villas.
A connection agreement from the grid operator (ONEE or your city’s distributor), before the work starts.
An authorisation.
Energy fed into the grid is capped at 20% of yearly production. On medium voltage and above, ANRE buys it at MAD 0.18/kWh off-peak and MAD 0.21/kWh at peak (excluding tax, from 1 March 2026 to 28 February 2027). On low voltage, the buy-back price has not been set yet.
A cost-effective system is sized to use its own production: every kWh produced and used on site replaces a kWh bought at the price on your bill, far above the buy-back price.
As of 31 October 2026. We check which rules apply to your system during the survey.

A grid-tied system without batteries shuts down for safety during a power cut. A hybrid system switches to its batteries and keeps the chosen circuits powered.
Since 9 June 2026, law 82-21 allows up to 20% of yearly production to be fed into the grid. The buy-back price set by ANRE (MAD 0.18 to 0.21 per kWh, excluding tax) applies to medium voltage and above; on low voltage it has not been set yet. So it pays to use your production on site.
Up to 11 kW, on low voltage or with no grid connection, a simple prior declaration is enough. From 11 kW to 5 MW you need a connection agreement from the grid operator; above that, an authorisation. We check which rules apply to your system during the survey.
Yes, with a hybrid or off-grid system: the batteries keep the energy produced by day for the evening and the night.
In most cases, yes: the panels are tilted towards the south on a mounting that is ballasted or fixed without harming the waterproofing. What matters most is unshaded space: parapets, stairwells, water tanks and satellite dishes all count.
A little: a panel loses about 0.3 to 0.4% of its power per degree above 25 °C. But the days are so long that summer remains the most productive season: about twice as much a day as in winter in Marrakech.
A rinse with clean water every few weeks in the dry season, early in the morning or late in the day, never on scorching panels, and a check once a year. The inverter’s app shows production day by day: an unusual drop shows up straight away.
Yes, as long as the panel and the battery are sized for short days and long nights: that is what we calculate for each location.
Panels, 25 years and more; the inverter, usually 10 to 15 years; lithium batteries, around ten years or longer.
Yes: survey, supply, installation and commissioning, by one team, with after-sales support 7 days a week.
