Abstract
Renewable energy technology deployment is very critical for sustainable rural agricultural development. This study analyses renewable energy technologies for sustainable rural agricultural development in Nigeria. The National Centre for Energy Research and Development, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, has developed viable renewable energy technology devices which include solar powered dryers, solar chicken brooders, solar incubators and solar PV system and biogas production system. This study analyzed the applications of these renewable energy devices and challenges to their deployment for sustainable rural agricultural development. Rural adults mostly involved agricultural practices lack knowledge of modern technologies that could lead to boosting rural agriculture. Thus, exposing them to knowledge of renewable energy technologies, achieving sustainable rural agricultural development is possible.
