Solar PV potential in Sudan by location
Below is the average daily output per kW of Solar PV installed for each season, along with the ideal solar panel tilt angles calculated for various locations in Sudan. Click on any location for more detailed information.
Explore the solar photovoltaic (PV) potential across 7 locations in Sudan, from Port Sudan to Singa. We have utilized empirical solar and meteorological data obtained from NASA's POWER API to determine solar PV potential and identify the optimal panel tilt angles for these locations.
Feel free to contact us if you wish for us to include a general Solar PV Analysis for a certain city or location not already listed here for Sudan. We will be more than happy to manually add it for you.

Solar Panel Tilt Angle in Sudan
So far based on Solar PV Analysis of 7 locations in Sudan, we've discovered that the ideal angle to tilt solar PV panels in Sudan varies between 17° from the horizontal plane facing South in Port Sudan and 13° from the horizontal plane facing South in Singa.
These tilt angles are optimised for maximum annual PV output at each location for fixed-panel solar PV installations. If you click on one of the locations above, there is further detail on ideal seasonal tilt angles as well (in case your solar panels are adjustable).
Depending on where you are based in Sudan, the ideal angle to tilt your solar panels will vary by approx 4 degrees (between 17° from the horizontal plane facing South and 13° from the horizontal plane facing South).
Sudan solar PV Stats as a country
Sudan ranks 82nd in the world for cumulative solar PV capacity, with 136 total MW's of solar PV installed. Each year Sudan is generating 3 Watts from solar PV per capita (Sudan ranks 84th in the world for solar PV Watts generated per capita). [source]
Are there incentives for businesses to install solar in Sudan?
At this time, there are no incentives for businesses wanting to install solar energy in Sudan. However, the government of Sudan has recently announced plans to increase its renewable energy capacity and is encouraging private sector investment in renewable energy projects. The government has also established a Renewable Energy Fund to support the development of renewable energy projects.
