Sudan has 67 MW of utility-scale solar and wind capacity in operation across 9 tracked facilities, ranking #132 of 222 countries in this atlas.

Solar dominates: 100% of the operating capacity (67 MW) comes from solar parks, against 0 MW of wind.

The pipeline is substantial: 0 MW under construction and 200 MW in pre-construction or announced, equal to 299% of today’s operating fleet.

About 55 MW (82%) of the operating capacity started up in 2021 or later; the busiest year was 2022, with 54 MW commissioned.

The largest concentrations are in River Nile State (55 MW), East Darfur State (6 MW), North Darfur State (6 MW).
