Renewable energy adoption in coastal fishing communities of Sierra Leone is a burgeoning area with significant potential for sustainable development. A comprehensive literature review was conducted using academic databases to identify relevant studies from to. Quantitative data were analysed for reliability and validity.

Investment in small-scale solar power systems should be prioritised for rural communities, with targeted subsidies or grants offered based on income levels.
