According to UN, our world population has reached 7.3 billion with the annual growth rate 1.18%. Increasing of population influenced needs to expand energy production and planning. Currently, energy planning consideration was changed from single criteria approach with economic focus to multi-criteria approach by including criteria from social and environmental. Although, scholars have recently studied...
Data for investment into renewable energy resources in Nigeria is mainly unavailable due to over reliance on conventional resources for energy generation. However, recent developments in the energy sector have portrayed a gradual attention to investments in renewable energy resources. This paper reviews the Renewable Energy Master Plan (REMP) which identifies this improvement and presents a draft...
We take a fresh look at the major nonrenewable and renewable energy sources and examine their long-term viability, scalability, and the sustainability of the resources that they use. We achieve this by asking what would happen if each energy source was a single supply of power for the world, as a gedanken experiment. From this perspective, a solar hydrogen economy emerges as a dominant solution to...
The renewable energy sources are going to become the long-term solution for future energy. Adequate infrastructure development is of crucial importance to harness power from them. This paper accumulates state-of-the-art issues and feasible solutions associated with large scale deployment of the renewable energy technologies. Various alternatives presented here are likely to change the look of the...
Socio-economic development and mitigating climate change are two significant, yet conflicting challenges facing sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Though energy is essential to sustainable development, the growing use of conventional sources is contributing to climate change. This paper evaluates the potential for renewable resources to meet Africa's energy needs.
