Minister of Energy and Petroleum, Engineer Al-Mua'tasim Ibrahim Ahmed, chaired a regular meeting of Sudan's electricity sector leadership in Khartoum on Monday to review renewable energy projects and electricity supply challenges.
The Minister directed officials to accelerate implementation and address obstacles facing the Kalaneib and Shendi power stations, as well as the wind power project in Dongola, with the aim of increasing generation capacity.
The meeting focused on renewable energy projects, particularly wind and solar power, to reduce pressure on hydroelectric and thermal generation. Participants also reviewed the procurement and installation of new transformers and related equipment to address bottlenecks and offset supply shortages.
The Minister warned of the serious risks posed by illegal electricity connections, noting that they damage transformers and disrupt electricity supplies to essential service institutions, including hospitals and water facilities.
He concluded by commending power sector employees for their dedication and sacrifices in maintaining service stability under the country's current challenging circumstances.
