Clean, accessible water in South Sudan means more than just hydration – it''s a safeguard against disease, a key to food security, and a foundation for development. Over 41,000 people are now benefiting from these solar-powered water systems, which serve both human consumption and agricultural needs.
This report explores the potential for renewable energy to support local energy access and peacebuilding in South Sudan, the newest and least electrified country in the world, by leveraging the renewable energy transition
Yet South Sudan has huge potential for solar energy given its warm weather with temperature averages normally above 25°C, and highs exceeding 35°C, particularly during the dry season. With solar, we no longer
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
Nhial Tiitmamer [19], a researcher on energy and environmental issues in South Sudan and a current policy analyst for SUDD Institute, concludes that solar energy has the
Nhial Tiitmamer [19], a researcher on energy and environmental issues in South Sudan and a current policy analyst for SUDD Institute, concludes that solar energy has the greatest potential to be South Sudan''s immediate and most affordable energy transition path towards a sustainable energy transition and even job creation. Given that hydropower
In addition to its hydrocarbon proven reserves, South Sudan can also prepare for its sustainable energy future by reducing electricity deficit through clean power investment that targets upto 40MW of additional power from renewable energy sources.
''South Sudan receives very high levels of solar irradiati on of 5.7 kWh/m2/day and a specific yield of 4.5 kWh/kWp/day indicating a very strong technical feasibility for solar in the country.6 ''Variable Renewable Electricity (VRE) plus-storage projects are in the planning phase in South Sudan including a 20 MW
This report explores the potential for renewable energy to support local energy access and peacebuilding in South Sudan, the newest and least electrified country in the world, by leveraging the renewable energy transition of the UN peacekeeping mission (UNMISS) - the single largest generator and consumer of electricity in the country.
Yet South Sudan has huge potential for solar energy given its warm weather with temperature averages normally above 25°C, and highs exceeding 35°C, particularly during the dry season. With solar, we no longer have to use torches to deliver women -
Juba (Elsewedy Power) solar farm is a solar photovoltaic (PV) farm under construction in Juba, Juba Payam, Juba County, Central Equatoria, South Sudan. Project Details Table 1: Phase-level project details for Juba (Elsewedy Power) solar farm
The National Minister of Environment has announced that the government is implementing policies to promote renewable energy, focusing on solar and hydropower projects. Josephine Napwon says these initiatives aim to attract climate finance from international funding sources, supporting efforts to address climate change and advance sustainable

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.
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.
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.
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.
