Optimal sizing and techno-enviro-economic feasibility assessment
In Sudan, DST increased performance by up to 50% in daily energy harvest compared to FS. Meanwhile, the daily harvested energy increase compared to single-axis STS (VST and HST) was limited to a maximum of 9%. DST outperformed FS in Sudan due to more clear days and sunshine hours, harvesting 35% more energy annually.

Solar for agriculture: Empowering farmers in Sudan
To demonstrate the potential of renewables in Sudan, a $4.4 million Global Environmental Facility (GEF) grant allowed UNDP to trial 29 solar-pumped farms in the Sahara-encompassed Northern State. This provided two years (four seasons) of crucial data and experience for farmers before rolling out an additional 1,440 pumps by 2022.

Is solar energy making a comeback in Sudan?
Fortunately, the country is now witnessing a comeback to solar energy as it is an effective tool to drive development, employment, and stability – particularly in rural and agriculture-focused communities. "In Sudan, access to energy is a critical tool, and solar is an effective way to achieve this.
Can solar power be used in Sudan?
To demonstrate the potential of renewables in Sudan, a $4.4 million Global Environmental Facility (GEF) grant allowed UNDP to trial 29 solar-pumped farms in the Sahara-encompassed Northern State. This provided two years (four seasons) of crucial data and experience for farmers before rolling out an additional 1,440 pumps by 2022.
Why should Sudan invest in solar power?
Agriculture is a major driver of Sudan’s economy and this project will help increase Sudan’s energy security and decouple its GDP from fluctuations in fossil fuel prices and availability. Furthermore, the project plays a catalytic role in the transformational scaling up of solar power for productive use in Sudan’s agricultural sector.
Can solar power irrigation pumps in Sudan?
Solar panels power irrigation pumps on a farm in Northern State (UNDP Sudan/ Muhanad Sameer) KHARTOUM (Sudanow) - Sudan was one of the first nations to understand the importance of renewable energy. In this bid, the country took good steps in early 1980s for the development of rural areas via the technologies of solar and wind energies.
How has solar technology changed agriculture in Sudan?
Agriculture offers significant opportunities in Sudan but often relies on diesel-powered water pumps. Introducing solar technology has increased land use and productivity by nearly 50%. For Abdel Rahman Isam Ahmed and his family, the results have been immediate and transformative. “I was not eager to farm before,” he said.
Will Sudan produce 500 megawatts of solar power?
Also, in November 2020 Sudan and the United Arab Emirates signed a memo of understanding for the production of 500 megawatt of solar electric power. The Gulf state, represented in one of its specialized companies, would import, build, install and operate the stations for twenty years and train the local workers.
