	'''<u>Output</u>''': The results from this qualitative data collection offer insights into the significance of electric appliances, electricity-fueled needs, and associated values. We explore variations and commonalities in preferences across sub-groups, including gender differences. These findings will inform the design and promotion of future energy projects and rural electrification initiatives, ensuring they align with the unique needs and values of rural communities in Nigeria for long-term success and sustainability.

 This qualitative study, conducted in rural and peri-urban regions of Nigeria (North West, North Central, South South), seeks to inform locally relevant electrification projects. By understanding energy needs and motivations, we aim to ensure the long-term success and sustainability of these projects.
-'''Method''': We conducted 90 individual interviews using the User Perceived Value Game, complemented by 3599 household surveys. Participants included individual men and women, as well as mixed-gender groups. They were presented with cards displaying everyday electrical items, which they ranked by importance. Through 'why' probing, we introduced an element of storytelling, allowing us to understand the values and needs participants associate with these items. Since the same individuals participated in both individual and group interviews, we could trace changes in item choices across different contexts.<ref>Hirmer, Stephanie und Heather Cruickshank. 2014. „The user-value of rural electrification: An analysis and adoption of existing models and theories.“ Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 34:145–54. doi:10.1016/j.rser.2014.03.005.</ref>

-'''<u>Method</u>:''' We collected 90 individual interviews using the User Perceived Value Game, complementing 3599 household surveys. Participants were individuals and groups including women, men, and mixed-gender groups They were given cards displaying everyday (electrical) items that respondents had to rank by importance. Through why probing an element of story telling was brought in. It allowed to understand the values and needs that participants associate with the non-electric and electrical items. As the same individuals participated in the individual interviews and the group interviews, the approach allows us to trace changes in item choices within different contexts. With this method we followed: Hirmer, Stephanie and Heather Cruickshank. 2014. „The user-value of rural electrification: An analysis and adoption of existing models and theories.“ Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 34:145–54. doi:10.1016/j.rser.2014.03.005 .
