To evaluate the performance of off-grid energy solutions in enhancing agricultural productivity in Senegal.
Conducted a randomized controlled trial over one year
Assessed solar PV and wind turbine systems
Collected data on energy output, cost per unit produced, and crop yields
Solar PV systems showed a 15% increase in crop yields compared to diesel generators
Specific improvements noted in maize and rice cultivation
Solar PV reduced energy costs while boosting agricultural productivity
