Renewable Power

Energy Transition Sub-pillar

The first energy transition sub-pillar of renewable power refers to electricity generated from carbon-free or carbon neutral sources that are naturally replenishing and virtually inexhaustible or sustainable over the long term. These sources include solar, wind, geothermal, and wave energy, green hydrogen, sustainable hydroelectric, and sustainable biomass. Renewable power is essential for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and combating climate change. By replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources, we can significantly cut carbon emissions and reduce air pollution. Renewable energy technologies like solar panels, wind turbines, and geothermal plants produce little to no emissions during operation, helping to create a cleaner, healthier environment while promoting energy independence and security. Expanding renewable power requires substantial investment in renewable energy infrastructure, including the installation of solar panels, wind farms, and other technologies. Governments and private sectors need to work together to provide financial incentives, such as subsidies and tax credits, to accelerate the adoption of renewable energy. Additionally, integrating renewable energy into existing power grids through smart grid technology and improving energy storage systems will enhance the reliability and efficiency of renewable power.
