RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES FOR SUSTAINABLE OFF-GRID ELECTRIFICATION IN MOKWA LGA CASE STUDY OF EDAN RURAL COMMUNITY

Alabi Ademola, Oguntunde Gbenro Philip, Adefela Adekunle Nicholas · 2024 · International Journal of Engineering Applied Sciences and Technology

Summary. This study evaluates renewable energy options for electrifying Edan, a remote rural community in Nigeria without grid access. Solar photovoltaic systems emerged as the most viable option given the region's high solar irradiance, while wind resources proved less favorable. The researchers recommend hybrid solar-wind solutions for reliability and cost-effectiveness. Successful deployment requires training local leaders to maintain systems and ensure long-term sustainability.
