Multinational - South Sudan - Uganda Power Interconnection Project

The South Sudan–Uganda Power Interconnection Project (hereinafter referred to as “SUPIP” or the “Project”) is a cross-border initiative that will simultaneously address excess electricity generation in Uganda and energy deficits in South Sudan, thus ensuring affordable power supply in both countries. The project is aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (in particular goals 7, 9 and 13) and contributes to the achievement of the African Union Agenda 2063 goal of “climate-resilient and environmentally sustainable economies and communities” and promoting “a high standard of living, quality of life and well-being for all citizens”. This project mainly contributes to climate mitigation results. Thus, 100% of the total approved amount is allocated to climate financing, of which 100% is dedicated to mitigation.
