Abstract Energy access remains a critical challenge in rural South Sudan, with communities heavily relying on expensive and unfriendly environmental energy sources such as diesel generators and biomass. This study addresses the predicament by evaluating the feasibility of renewable energy-based decentralized electrification in the selected village of Doleib Hill, Upper Nile, South Sudan. Using a demand assessment and the Multi-Tier Framework (MTF) approach, it categorizes households, public facilities, private sector, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) and business energy needs and designs an optimized hybrid energy system incorporating solar Photovoltaic (PV), wind turbines, batteries, and a generator. The proposed… More >
