Description
Summary:Renewable energy sources have a significant potential for improving the development of mankind. Energy obtained from the renewable sources, such as water, wind, solar and biomass, among others, can facilitate access to clean and safe energy for millions of people. It can provide an incentive for the social and economic development, contributing to the society tackling the environmental challenges. The clean energy technologies, impact of renewable sources on the environment and energy security should enable the general access to the modern energy services, increase the global rate of energy efficiency improvement, and increase the share of energy from the renewable sources within the global energy system. This achieves an integrated approach to the sustainable energy services, ensures the use of renewable energy sources and thus achieves more energy efficient solutions. The renewable energy technologies provide a unique opportunity to limit the carbon emissions into the atmosphere without compromising access to the energy, which has the significant implications for slowing down the climate changes. Also, development the renewable energy sources creates access to energy that is inexhaustible, thereby reducing a country's reliance on foreign resources and increasing its energy security. In addition, the renewable energy sources bring the great health benefits, providing the clean, safe energy, without the negative effects of using the fossil fuels.
