South Sudan Powers Up: Ezra Group’s Solar & Battery Plant Sparks a Green Revolution!
In a groundbreaking step toward sustainable energy, Ezra Group has officially launched South Sudan’s first-ever renewable energy source—a 20MW solar power plant paired with a 14MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). This project marks a pivotal moment for the nation, offering cleaner, more reliable electricity to thousands of households.
🔆 Powering South Sudan’s Future
Developed and funded by Ezra Construction & Development Group, a subsidiary of Ezra Group, this solar plant in Gondokoro has the capacity to light up 16,000 homes in Juba. By integrating Huawei’s advanced smart technology, including inverters, transformers, and loggers, the plant ensures optimal energy efficiency and grid stability.
🛑 No More Blackouts! The Role of BESS
With its cutting-edge Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), the plant enables round-the-clock power availability—even when the sun isn’t shining. This means better energy security, lower costs, and less reliance on fossil fuels, marking a game-changing moment for South Sudan’s energy landscape.
👥 A Historic Launch Event
The official inauguration was attended by esteemed leaders, including:
✔ Taban Deng Gai – South Sudan’s Vice President for Infrastructure
✔ Peter Marcello Nasir Jelenge – Minister of Energy and Dams
✔ Sultan Lam Tungwar Kueigwong – Undersecretary, Ministry of Energy and Dams
✔ Paulino Loduku – Deputy Governor of Central Equatoria
✔ Yohannes Teklemichael – Eritrea’s Ambassador to South Sudan
📢 “This is more than just an energy project—it’s a symbol of progress,” said Natnael Ghebrengus Ezra, CEO of Ezra Group. “Together, we are building a cleaner, brighter, and more sustainable future for South Sudan.”
🔗 Powering Progress Through Partnerships
The success of this ambitious initiative was made possible through strategic collaboration with:
🔹 South Sudan Electricity Corporation (SSEC) – Overseeing power generation & grid integration
🔹 Ministry of Energy and Dams – Regulatory approvals & infrastructure support
