Keywords:
Biomass Energy, Digitalization, Energy Storage, Renewable Energy, Sustainable
Abstract
The importance of renewable energy in addressing global issues including energy security, economic resilience, and climate change is examined in this study. It offers a thorough review of current innovations and developing patterns in a variety of renewable energy systems, such as solar, wind, geothermal, hydroelectric, and biomass. Notable developments in digitalization, smart grid technology, and energy storage are emphasized because of their importance in improving the integration and efficiency of renewable energy systems. The role of market dynamics, community involvement, and regulatory frameworks in promoting the use of renewable energy sources is also covered in this study. This review highlights the need for multidisciplinary cooperation and creative funding methods to get over the present obstacles to the adoption of renewable energy by combining the most recent research with successful case studies. According to the research, adopting renewable energy strategically may promote sustainable economic development and help the world reach its sustainability targets. The article also highlights the need of keeping funding cutting-edge methods and technology that strengthen local communities and guarantee everyone has access to sustainable energy. In the end, this review promotes a comprehensive shift toward a resilient energy future in which the development of a sustainable and ecologically conscious society is greatly aided by renewable energy solutions.
