Summary/Abstract: This article presents a multi-regional assessment of energy consumption optimization in Morocco using an inter-regional input-output model in 2019. It aims to present a theoretical analysis of energy optimization and sustainable development models. The study results reveal that different regions of Morocco face distinct challenges in energy consumption and that certain sectors such as oil refining and energy products, electricity and water, as well as transportation, have the highest energy consumption multipliers, suggesting that investment in renewable energy sources and energy efficiency initiatives are essential to reducing energy consumption in the long term and helping Morocco to achieve its energy efficiency objectives.
