The mission'sfindings and recommendationsare outlinedin a jointUNDP/World Baak EnergyAssessment Report. 1/ The followingissues were identified as being the most significantin the energy sector, the resolutionof which would contributesubstantially to the recoveryof the economy: (a) supply disruptionsof petroleumproducts, mainly due to financial constraints;(b) the urgent need for policy decisionson a number of options on the developmentand utilizationof indigenouscrude oil resources;(c) low efficiencyof utilizationof petroleumproducts and woodfuels; (d) serious over-cuttingof Sudan's fuelwood resources; (e) inadequatereliability and shortageof power supplyas well as high system losses; (f) shortcomingsin petroleumproduct prices and power tariffs;(g) the need to develop renewableenergy sourcesother than fuelwood;and (h) lack of sector-wideplanning and coordination. 1.2 Over the last year and a half, the Governmenthas been success- ful in initiatinga numberof impo!tantpolicy measures, studies and de- velopmentprograms in the energysector. However,progress in some areas has been hampereddue to the overalleconomic conditions prevailing in Sudanwhich have had a continuingimpact on the abilityof the Government to implementenergy developmentprograms. Hence, althoughthe initi- atives taken by the Governmenthave resultedin notable progresswith respectto the implementationof the recommendationsof the Assessment Report, continuedprogress largely depends upon the ability of the Governmentto mobtlizeadequate financial and other resourcesrequired to sustainthe energydevelopment program. 1.3 The economyof Sudanis characterizedby a numberof imbalances whichthe Governmentis attemptingto correct. A recentreview 2/ indi- cates that the imbalancebetween consumption and savingsis among the most significant.Since the middleof the last decade,Sudan has relied heavilyon domesticborrowing and foreignresources rather than on its own taxationand savingsto finance investment. By doing this, the Governmentwas unable to curb privatesector demand sufficiently.The results have been reduced availabilityof goods for export, soaring imports,rapid inflationand debt servicingcrises. However,during the past two years, the Governmenthas taken a seriesof measuressuch as increasingexport productivity,reducing the budgetary deiicit and restructuringexternal debt to reverse the declining trend and to initiatea recoveryof the economy.

Real GDP growth rates were recorded at 4.6X in the early years of the 1980s after a seriousdecline at the end of the last decade. However, due to adverse weather condi- tions, transport problems, and shortages of energy supply to both the agriculturaland industrialsector, GDP declined again in FY83. In 1982, the annual rate of inflation was estimated at about 27%. Since FY82, exports as a percentage of GDP have increased&gain, while imports have remained at twice the level of exports, leading to increasingannual cur- rent account deficits of up to about 16% of GDP in FY82 and dropping again to 12% of GDP in the following year. While in the early 1970s domestic savings of 9-10% of GDP financed a major proportion of the country's investuent, domestic resource mobilizationdecreased relative to GDP in the late seventies and early eighties, turning negative in ?Y82. As a result, annual increasesin foreign borrowingwere excessive. 1.4 This status report 3/ briefly outlines the significantdevel- opments that have occurred in the energy sector since end-1982, and in particular,the actious taken by
