Renewable energy solutions are increasingly recognized as vital for sustainable development, addressing energy poverty, and mitigating climate change. In Shendam Local Government Area (LGA), Plateau State, the adoption of renewable energy technologies has been slow due to limited awareness, misconceptions, and infrastructural challenges.
