Intelligent smart grids combine the generation, storage and consumption of energy systems. The opportunities to generate renewable energy from wind, solar and hydropower are generally higher in rural areas than in cities. The future development of the energy system is based on the planning and management of the distribution grid according to the Smart Hub (SH) component. This study comprehensively reviews the accessibility to the generation of electricity and the accessibility of renewable generation systems in urban and rural centres in Offa. It also examines the potential of an intelligent smart hub renewable generation system (ISHRGS) resources in Offa, Kwara State, that harnesses continuous energy supply and sustainability. Therefore, the historical background of the energy distribution in Offa, which led to this approach, is briefly presented with a comprehensive schematic diagram. Using a typical hypothetical example, modelling different components of SH and using them together to optimize ISHRGS using a genetic algorithm is presented. However, the study compares ISHRGS to different rural development approaches based on the feature of high adaptability to meet the temporal needs efficiently, and the parts reflect the intelligent character of the smart hub concerning electricity demand in the region.
