According to the latest report from the Moroccan Ministry of Water, the overall fill rate of dams across the country has reached 27.7%, equivalent to 4,464.8 million cubic meters of stored water.
The statistics show a significant variation in fill rates among different basins in the kingdom. The Al Wahda dam in the north of the country recorded the highest fill rate at 51.11%, followed by the Tensift dam at 45.55%, and then the Sebou dam at 43.08%.
On the other hand, some basins recorded very low rates, with the Oum Er-Rbia dam at only 4.53% capacity, and the Souss-Massa dam at 12.80%.
The rates in the remaining basins were as follows: Bouregreg 32.10%, Moulouya 25.28%, Guir-Ziz-Rhéris 28.44%, and Drâa-Oued Noun 17.97%.
These figures come amid the ongoing drought crisis that the kingdom has been experiencing for years, necessitating water consumption rationalization and the search for sustainable solutions to manage water resources.
The report, dated September 8, 2024, highlights the continuing challenges Morocco faces in water management and the urgent need for strategies to address water scarcity across different regions of the country.
