Summary. Hybrid renewable energy systems combining solar, wind, biomass, and hydro power offer viable alternatives to grid expansion for rural electrification in developing countries. These systems create jobs, improve health and education outcomes, and build economic resilience. However, high upfront costs, insufficient technical expertise, and weak policy frameworks hinder adoption. Successful deployment requires targeted policies, financial support, community involvement, and ongoing technical innovation.
