Free QuoteThe Juba Solar Power Station is a proposed 20 MW (27,000 hp) solar power plant in South Sudan. The solar farm is under development by a consortium comprising Elsewedy Electric Company of Egypt, Asunim Solar from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and I-kWh Company, an energy consultancy firm also based in the UAE.
Most of the electricity in the country is concentrated in Juba the capital and in the regional centers of Malakal and Wau. At that time the demand for electricity in the county was estimated at over 300 MW and growing. Nearly all electricity sources in the country are fossil-fuel based, with attendant challenges of cost and environmental pollution.
A little over forty-seven percent (47.57%) of the respondents generate their own power and 36.33% get power through the neighborhood mini-grids. Third, a higher number of households in Juba have installed solar power than households who have installed diesel-powered generators.
The SSEC run Juba Power Station also stopped production in 2015 due to fuel crisis and inoperable machines. A whopping 82.77% of the respondents say they are not satisfied with the energy sources they have. Factors responsible for this include high demand and incredibly low power supply.
