Abstract
Background: Bio-renewable energy refers to energy derived from organic matter such as plants and animal waste. There is growing interest in bio-renewable energy due to concerns about climate change and energy security. However, the knowledge, perception, choice and usage of bio-renewable energy among households in Nigeria are not well documented.   Objectives: This study aimed to determine the knowledge, perception, choice and usage of bio-renewable energy among households in Nnewi, Anambra State, Nigeria. Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study involving 384 households selected through a multi-stage sampling technique. Data was collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire and analyzed with SPSS version 25. Results: The results showed that 67% of respondents were aware of bio-renewable energy, mainly from social media (43%) and television (39%). Solar energy was the most known renewable energy source (69%). Most respondents had moderate overall knowledge, positive perception, but low usage of bio-renewable energy mainly due to high costs. Significant associations existed between knowledge, perception, choice/usage and respondents'''' educational level and occupation (p0.05). Conclusion: This study reveals a gap between good knowledge/perception of bio-renewable energy among households and its usage, largely attributable to the high costs. Addressing prohibitive costs through subsidies and favorable policies could facilitate wider adoption of bio-renewable energy and its attendant benefits....
