Research and projects on solar energy in Sudan have primarily concentrated on solar PV systems, with relatively limited focus on solar thermal energy. Nevertheless, there are some studies that have explored power generation using CSP technologies.
Plans are underway to deploy 1200 solar pumps in West and North Kordofan. By 2035, the government also plans to establish 190 MW of solar PV home systems, 400 MW of solar pumping, 250 MW of rooftop PV systems, and 27 MW of PV-diesel hybrid systems. In wind energy, Sudan aims to achieve a total installed capacity of 1550 MW by 2035.
The government has identified six additional sites capable of producing a total of 2197 MW, though no significant new installations have been recently initiated. As part of the Sunbelt region, Sudan possesses substantial solar energy potential. However, the grid-connected capacity remains limited to the 5-MW El Fasher solar PV plant.
The energy supply in Sudan is primarily derived from crude oil, hydroelectricity, biomass, and renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, and geothermal energy. As illustrated in Figure 2a, biomass is the largest contributor, accounting for 52% of Sudan's total energy consumption.
A solar micro-inverter, or simply microinverter, is a plug-and-play device used in photovoltaics that converts direct current (DC) generated by a single solar module to alternating current (AC). Microinverters contrast with conventional string and central solar inverters, in which a single inverter is connected to multiple solar panels.
A solar inverter or photovoltaic (PV) inverter is a type of power inverter which converts the variable direct current (DC) output of a photovoltaic solar panel into a utility frequency alternating current (AC) that can be fed into a commercial electrical grid or used by a local, off-grid electrical network.
While it's easier to add solar panels to your system later with microinverters, choosing the right string inverter before your installation is critical, as central inverter systems are typically built-to-suit without the capacity for expanded solar generation. Use our online tool to find the right sizes for your solar energy system components.
To find the right solar inverter or inverters for your installation, you must consider several specific features of your property, including your energy demand, roof complexity, and whether shading will affect your system's performance. Learn more about solar and shade.
