This study examines the development of distributed Photo Voltaic (PV) systems for rural communities in Ghana. This study reviews the present situation of distributed PV systems in Ghana, highlighting the benefits and challenges associated with their implementation. The review draws on several key studies that analyze the policy landscape, potential for co-benefits, barriers to development, and economic feasibility of distributed PV systems. The findings indicate that while distributed PV systems offer numerous benefits, including increased access to electricity and reduced carbon emissions, several significant barriers to their development include financial constraints, limited private sector involvement, and unfavorable policies. The review concludes by suggesting that further research is needed to explore innovative financing mechanisms, effective policy frameworks, and improved public-private partnerships, which could accelerate the deployment of distributed PV systems and improve energy access for rural communities in Ghana.
