South Sudan Renewable Energy Potentials

South Sudan is endowed with high solar PV potential boasting more than 10 hours of daily sunshine – approximately solar radiation of 5.5 – 6.0 Kwh/m 2 /day year-round. Such abundant sunshine is ubiquitous in the ten states of South Sudan and thus presents a shared clean energy future that when exploited would build a renewable-based economy

South Sudan: A Key Destination For Solar Energy Investment

As characterised by ample sunshine with strong solar power potential, South Sudan remains as one of key destinations on African continent for solar energy investment. In addition to this, it has been documented that evolution of solar PV is

6 FAQs about [South Sudan photovoltaic power]

Why is solar energy important in South Sudan?

How long does solar energy last in South Sudan?

Proponents of solar energy argue that a solar system can produce reliable electricity for about 25 years. Having recognised solar energy potential, South Sudan is expected to put more emphasis on development of solar energy sector as part of its fight against energy poverty and economic diversification.

How solar energy can transform South Sudan's economy?

A solar energy can also be transformative to South Sudan’s economy. For example, solar energy is affordable, cleaner and last longer as compared to energy from diesel-powered generators because generators need diesel to burn and they also need to be replaced after few years.

Which solar energy options are available in Sudan?

In Sudan, three solar energy options are available: 1. Solar PV energy: 1000 MW (on- and off-grid) will be applicable in different states within Sudan. 2. Solar CSP technology: 100 MW (grid connected) will be applicable, especially in the northern part of Sudan. 3. Waste to Energy: 80 MW (grid connected) will be applicable in several intended sites.

Will South Sudan build a 12 MWp solar plant in Juba?

Kampala-based developer Aptech Africa says it plans to build a 12 MWp solar plant in Juba. The capital of South Sudan is set to host a new 12 MWp grid-connected solar plant.

Could Sudan be the world's largest solar photovoltaic area?

The project is funded with $4 billion from the government and is projected to generate a total capacity of 1.8 GW, which would make it the world’s largest solar photovoltaic area. In 2018, the first phase was completed and 50 MW was generated [58, 59]. Sudan could exploit its renewable resources by adopting a strategy similar to Egypt.
