The Role of Renewable Energy in the Transition to Green, Low-Carbon Power Generation in Asia

Abstract

An essential factor in a nation's economic development is energy. Among the various energy sources, renewable energies have demonstrated that they can replace fossil fuels in electricity production without harming the environment and are a trustworthy and affordable source to meet future energy requirements. Asia is now involved in an energy and economy transition process to move away from a fossil fuel-based energy matrix toward a green economy, where electricity generation will depend on renewable energy. This shift should be carried out and supported by governments and energy industries in different countries. The manuscript aims to provide governments and industry representatives with the latest information they need to guide the energy transaction to a green economy, minimizing the harmful ecological and environmental impact.
