Solar Panels: A Lifeline Amid Sudan''s Electricity Crisis
The destruction of generation and distribution infrastructure has triggered a surge in demand for solar energy systems, particularly in Khartoum, for both residential and agricultural uses.
Taha designed a 25-kW solar-powered farm to meet the annual demand for 66,000 kg of Yellow Potato and 79200 heads of Rocket Arugula for Al-Anfal Supermarket in Khartoum. Ahmed, Demirci, and Tercan further reported that incorporating solar tracking systems into 22–32 kW PV systems in Khartoum could improve energy harvesting by 50%.
Ahmed et al. projected that installing 4-kW rooftop PV systems in 420500 homes could meet the city's entire electricity demand by 2030. Taha designed a 25-kW solar-powered farm to meet the annual demand for 66,000 kg of Yellow Potato and 79200 heads of Rocket Arugula for Al-Anfal Supermarket in Khartoum.
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.
The capital city, Khartoum, produces approximately 7 million tons of combustible and putrescible (wet organic) waste annually, with the potential to generate 64212 TJ of energy .
