The renewable energy–environment nexus

Environmental degradation has been among the most concerning global issues in the 21st century. The aggravation of environmental issues is becoming increasingly more worrisome to the world as it affects multidimensional aspects of a nation in terms of economics, social, and environment. As the globa...

The aggravation of environmental issues is becoming increasingly more worrisome to the world as it affects multidimensional aspects of a nation in terms of economics, social, and environment. As the global economy continues to develop, reaching an equipoise between economic progression and environmental sustainability is a critical challenge to the world.

The aggravation of environmental issues is becoming increasingly more worrisome to the world as it affects multidimensional aspects of a nation in terms of economics, social, and environment. As the global economy continues to develop, reaching an equipoise between economic progression and environmental sustainability is a critical challenge to the world. In light of that, the role of renewable energy (RE) in the environmental sustainability has raised significant concern. The application of RE technologies has advanced to serve a critical role in mitigating the environmental degradation issue.

In this chapter, the impacts of RE on environmental degradation, theoretical and literature reviews of the interconnection between RE and environmental degradation, existing policies about RE in the world, case study analysis on the nexus between the two variables, and some policy recommendations alongside the insights of future studies are explored.
