Off-grid communities in Ghana are facing challenges in accessing reliable electricity sources, necessitating innovative solutions for sustainable energy provision. A mixed-method approach was employed, integrating quantitative data collection (cost-benefit analysis) and qualitative interviews (perceptions and experiences). The cost-effectiveness of the off-grid systems varied by community type, with solar-powered solutions being the most cost-effective in rural areas. This study provides a robust framework for assessing similar projects in other regions, highlighting the need for tailored energy solutions based on local contexts. Further research should include longitudinal studies and explore multi-faceted impacts of these systems on community development.
