HYBRID SOLAR-BIOMASS SYSTEMS FOR OFF-GRID RURAL ELECTRIFICATION: TECHNO-ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT

Ardi Azhar Nampira, Felipe Souza, Rafaela Lima · 2025 · Journal of Moeslim Research Technik

Summary. Researchers designed and modeled a hybrid solar-biomass system for off-grid rural electrification, combining solar panels, biomass gasifiers, and battery storage. The optimized system achieved a levelized cost of $0.25/kWh—competitive with diesel generators—while reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 75%. The study confirms hybrid solar-biomass systems are technically feasible, economically viable, and environmentally superior alternatives for electrifying rural communities lacking grid access.
