What is Juba solar power station?
The 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.
How will a 20 MW solar plant benefit Juba?
The 20 MW solar plant will supply electricity to approximately 16,000 households in Juba, integrating clean energy into the national grid. The project is expected to reduce carbon emissions, lower electricity costs, and enhance grid stability. The BESS system ensures a reliable power supply, allowing stored solar energy to be used when needed.
Who distributes electricity in Juba?
The Juba Electricity Distribution Company (JEDCO), a public-private partnership between Ezra Group and SSEC, is responsible for distributing the generated electricity to consumers in Juba. JEDCO receives bulk energy from Ezra Construction & Development Group and distributes it across the region.
