Description: Many rural communities in developing countries continue to rely on biomass for energy, which has a negative impact on their socioeconomic development. Following the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals—zero hunger and affordable modern/clean energy for all—many developing nations are now taking substantial initiatives to enhance rural clean energy access. As a result, this research explored rural household behaviors toward adopting alternative modern energy sources in East Gojjam Zone, Ethiopia. In an attempt to do so, 317 rural households were surveyed, and the data were analyzed using the multivariate probit (MVP) model.
