4 FAQs about [South Sudan solar and bess projects]

Why is solar energy important in South Sudan?

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 of great significance in South Sudan.

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.

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.

Does South Sudan have a fight against energy poverty?

The good news is that South Sudan has already started its fight against energy poverty and one evidence for that is the ongoing construction of Nesitu 20MWp PV Solar + 35MWh BESS power plant at Nesitu, Juba.
