Philippe Chalmin et Afaf Zarkik

Notre rapport phare ARCADIA, une collaboration avec le cercle CyclOpe, a été rédigé par une vingtaine d’experts mondiaux sous la direction de deux spécialistes des marchés des matières premières, Philippe Chalmin et Yves Jégourel. Cette 4ème édition présente une analyse de l’évolution des marchés des matières premières en Afrique, et se penche notamment sur les années 2019, 2020 et les premiers mois de 2021. L’invité de ce podcast, Philippe Chalmin, répond à toutes nos interrogations sur l’état et l’avenir des marchés des matières premières (énergétiques, agricoles, métaux et minerais) en accordant une attention particulière au continent africain.

    Les énergies renouvelables au Maroc : un chantier de Règne

    Le Royaume du Maroc, dépourvu de pétrole et de gaz, s'est tourné, dès 1960, vers les énergies renouvelables, privilégiant alors l'hydroélectricité et la construction de barrages. Pour autant, l'essentiel des centrales électriques du pays était et demeure alimenté en gazole ou en gaz, impactant lourdement sa balance des paiements. Depuis, la demande d'électricité n'a cessé de croitre, d'une part, du fait du développement du pays et, d'autre part, suite au recours à des désalinisateur ...

    February 27, 2020
    The Kingdom of Morocco, which has no oil and gas, has shifted to renewable energy as early as 1960, giving priority to hydroelectricity and the construction of dams.

Since then, the demand for electricity has continued to grow due to the country’s development on the one hand and, as a result of the use of desalination facilities on the other hand, w ...
