Unless you are using sufficient in its original meaning*, underpinning. But nobody does.

"Sufficient enough" is redundant. I would avoid using it.
I'd never seen the expression 'sufficient enough' before, and was surprised to find it seemed to have many Google hits. However, further research showed it was used well under 1% of the time, so I felt justified in editing it out as non-standard:
"sufficient enough to": 466 kGh
"sufficient to": 27,8 MGh
"enough to": 222 MGh
"sufficient enough for": 49,4 kGh
"sufficient for": 11,0 MGh
"enough for": 60,2 MGh
