6 FAQs about [Power generation solar Sudan]
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.
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
Are solar photovoltaic systems viable in Sudan?
Most of the attention is given to solar photovoltaic (PV) systems; no thorough techno-economic study has been carried out to evaluate the potential for CSP technologies in Sudan. The main aim of this paper is to encourage Sudan's authorities to pursue CSP technologies and overcome the associated challenges.
Are solar power towers and parabolic troughs 'hypothetically relocated' in Sudan?
The study used techno-economic analysis for two of the most mature CSP technologies – solar power tower (SPT) and parabolic trough (PT) technology – to produce electricity in Sudan. Two commercial CSP plants, namely GEMASOLAR and ANDASOL-1, have been “hypothetically” relocated in six Sudanese zones using the system advisor model (SAM).
Can concentrated solar power plants help alleviate Sudan's energy crisis?
Concentrated solar power plants can play a significant role in alleviating Sudan’s energy crisis. These plants can be established and implemented in Sudan, as their potential is considerably high due to the climate conditions in Sudan.
