Investigating energy policies to boost grid-connected rooftop solar

However, rooftop solar PV has not yet been widely adopted in many sub-Saharan African countries, such as Sudan, although they are endowed with high solar radiation and in dire need of...

An analysis of Sudan''s energy sector and its renewable energy

Solar energy currently makes up less than 0.1% of Sudan''s energy supply; but there is immense potential because there is an average of 8.5 to 11 hours of sunshine per day [Citation 46]. Figure 6 compares solar energy generation in Sudan and other African countries from 2015 to 2019, and shows that Sudan is not capitalising on its potential.

Renewable Energy in Sudan

According to AFSIC, "Sudan has abundant resources for renewable energy, including solar, wind and hydro power. The country has one of the highest solar radiation rates in the world, with the potential to generate up to 15 GW of solar energy." For reference, 1 GW of energy, equivalent to 1 billion watts, is enough to power up to 750,000 homes.

6 FAQs about [Solar energy installation Sudan]

What is the Guide to solar energy in Sudan?

“The Guide to Solar Energy in Sudan” is the first booklet of its kind in Sudan that targets consumer awareness at a “grass root” level, proudly developed by Clean Energy 4 Africa, and supported by several of the largest solar energy companies in the country.

Does Sudan need a solar power plant?

In addition, the electric power consumption per capita in Sudan is 269 kWh/yr, so the proposed solar power plant with 1 979 259 MWh/yr can provide energy to 7.4 million people per year annually and reduce carbon emissions by ~18 million tons of carbon dioxide per year.

Does saruest have a solar project in Sudan?

Saruest alone runs 1,200 solar energy projects in Sudan. It and companies like it receive exemptions on their customs when importing panels, and banks are providing financing that allows farmers to pay in instalments.

How much does electricity cost in Sudan?

As for Ethiopia, Sudan imports electricity at a price of 4.5 cents/kilowatt . In August 2021, the Minister of Energy and Petroleum declared that the Sudanese energy sector needed urgent maintenance and restructuring at a cost of $3 billion, another indicator of the dire financial needs of the sector .

Is solar power economically feasible in Sudan?

Economic calculations show that the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is $0.06/kWh, the discounted payback period is ~11 years and the net present value is $635 291 000. As a result, the proposed grid-connected PV solar plant is considered economically, technically and environmentally feasible in Sudan. Energy is important for sustaining life.

Can a 1 GW solar power station be built in Sudan?

This research study focuses on designing a 1-GW solar power station in northern Sudan using the PVsyst7.0 software program. To determine the appropriate location for the solar-energy station, 14 criteria were evaluated. This process is generic and suitable for use in any other country.
