6 FAQs about [Sudan solar energy generation system]

Does Sudan have a solar energy potential?

These studies highlighted the excellent solar PV energy potential the country has due to its high solar irradiation rates and long hours of sunshine. Several research papers have looked at the potential of solar PV in Sudan .

Can Sudan adopt solar power?

On the other hand, there is a promising potential in adopting solar power in the country. Germany, the leading country in solar energy, averages less than 140 hours of sunlight per month in its sunniest city Stuttgart. Sudan's location allows it to receive up to 11 hours of direct sunlight daily, equivalent to 436-639 W/m2 of solar energy density.

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.

What should the Sudanese government do about solar energy?

enterprise. Moreover, the Sudanese government should make it easier for national com- panies to secure financial resources and facilitate transforming solar energy infrastructure. nology that aims to meet energy needs. Sudan must use policy strategies to initiate

Can a 1 GW solar PV power plant be built in Sudan?

In this work, simulations of a solar photovoltaic (PV) system located in Sudan are carried out using PVsyst7.0. By comparing the power production, performance ratio and price, the ideal area for setting up a 1-GW grid-attached solar PV power plant in the north region is identified.
