Solution

The correct option is D Solar energy
Solar cells, which convert solar energy to electricity have no moving parts, require little maintenance, and can be set up in remote and inaccessible hamlets or very sparsely inhabited areas in which laying of a power transmission line may be expensive and not commercially viable. Hence solar energy is a viable option for Boojho's village.
