Analysis
Sudan recorded 8,420 GWh for renewable energy electricity output in 2015.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 5.5% on the previous year and up 567.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, renewable energy electricity output in Sudan peaked at 8,913 GWh in 2014 and was at its lowest, 958 GWh, in 1990.
That places Sudan 65th out of 233 countries with data for 2015, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
