This study explored the transformative role of biomass gasification integrated within Multifunctional Platforms (MFPs) as a sustainable solution to rural energy poverty and agro-industrial stagnation in off-grid areas of Uganda. Anchored within the framework of the Parish Development Model (PDM), the research investigated how advanced biomass gasification technologies stimulated agro-processing, promoted environmental conservation, and drove inclusive economic development at the grassroots. The study was conducted in Kibale District, employing a mixed-methods approach that involved surveys, focus group discussions, and key informant interviews with local farmers, agro-processors, community leaders, and technical experts. Findings revealed that biomass gasification offered a reliable and renewable energy source, especially when harnessed through MFPs to power agro-processing units, support rural enterprises, and reduce post-harvest losses. The technology also contributed to waste management by converting agricultural residues into clean energy, thereby enhancing environmental sustainability. However, adoption was hindered by factors such as limited technical knowledge, inadequate financing mechanisms, and infrastructural gaps. The research underscored the critical need for capacity building, public-private partnerships, and tailored policy interventions to mainstream biomass gasification within the PDM framework. By leveraging locally available biomass resources, Uganda could unlock rural industrial potential, improve livelihoods, and advance its transition to a low-carbon print economy. The study concluded with strategic recommendations to scale up MFPs as engines for sustainable rural transformation and resilient agro-industrial ecosystems in off-grid communities.
