1. This is going to be a critical year for South Sudan''s transition to peace. South Sudan''s timeline has been dominated by violence, with the beginning of its civil war officially recorded as December 15, 2013. A failed peace negotiation led to renewed attacks in 2016, and before that the conflict rapidly took on an ethnic dimension between Dinka …
September 7, 2023. While 12 projects won awards in the first tranche of Greece''s recent grid-scale energy storage auctions, what of the c.500 totalling nearly 27GW that didn''t? Jon Ferris, LCP Delta''s Head of Flexibility and Storage, looks at the dynamics which could play out in rounds two and three in Europe''s fourth largest market by ...

South Sudan has oil resource developments. Hydroelectric potential is being developed. Minerals resources are being developed. Electricity access is low with ~10,000# private diesel generators in the capital alone. Much of the population rely on traditional biomass fuels; Areas of South Sudan that show geothermal energy potential include:
South Africa''s public utility Eskom brings online first large-scale BESS from 1,440MWh procurement. November 13, 2023. Eskom, the public utility company of South Africa, has inaugurated a 20MW/100MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) aimed at mitigating the challenging situation facing the country''s grid.

A new report from the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) has found that national grid storage systems should be an immediate priority, alongside new renewables generation capacity, to ease pressure on the grid, optimise its efficiency and combat load shedding. South Africa needs to prioritise grid-located battery …
More energy storage to alleviate solar PV curtailment issues in Greece. June 28, 2024. Ahead of Large Scale Solar Southern Europe next week in Athens, Greece, PV Tech spoke with some of the ...
Egyptian energy services company Elsewedy Electric T&D (EETD) recently secured a contract to build a 20 MWp PV plant and 35 MWh storage system in South Sudan.
South Sudan ''s Ministry of Energy and Dams has chosen Egyptian manufacturer El Sewedy Electric to build the country''s first large-scale PV power project. The African Export-Import Bank is financing the $45 million project, which will include a 20 MW solar park coupled with a 35 MWh large-scale storage system.
Solar energy is abundant during the dry season in South Sudan. Because of this, the sun''s energy is harnessed using solar technologies to pump water into the elevated water storage tank. Gravity allows the water to flow through underground pipes directly to water kiosks throughout the community.
RISE scores reflect a snapshot of South Sudan''s policies and regulations in the energy sector, organized by the three pillars of sustainable energy: Energy Access, Energy Efficiency, and Renewable Energy. Find an …

Three large-scale battery storage projects and one virtual power plant were the winners of a recent competitive tender held on behalf of the government of New South Wales (NSW), Australia.
About 98% of South Sudan falls within the River Nile Basin with various water bodies all over the country (The Nile Basin Intitative (NBI), 2019). South Sudan has huge energy potential, from ...
EETD last year secured a contract to build the 20 MWp PV plant and 35 MWh storage system near the South Sudanese capital of Juba. The project will serve the state of Jubek and surrounding region and nearly double South Sudan''s total grid-connected electricity generating capacity, which is currently 100% dependent on oil imports.
South Sudan receives about 8 hours of sunshine daily, providing an estimated solar energy capacity of 436W/M2/year (REEP, 2013). Similarly, wind energy density ranges between 285 and 380 W/M2 (REEP, 2013). Both the solar sunshine duration and wind density meet the threshold required to produce high quality electricity.
The decrease in energy supplies, combined with increased demand bolstered by a growing population, threatened Sudan''s energy security and contributed to its current energy crisis [Citation 28]. Although hydroelectricity generates approximately half of Sudan''s electricity, there are numerous obstacles to its full use.
