description The concept of meeting the present needs without impeding future generations' needs is called sustainable development. Therefore, sustainable energy development is the pathway for every nation's economic growth and development. The purpose of this article is assessing the influence of environmental conservation attributes in the delivery of sustainable energy delivery (SED) in the South African (SA) Power sector. A quantitative research approach was adopted for this study, with data gathered through a questionnaire survey instrument from participants using a purposive sampling technique. Collected data were analysed in four stages: data reliability and validity, descriptive statistics, principal component analysis, and model testing and fit statistics. The top picks environmental conservation attributes influencing the adoption of SED in the SA power sector: reduction of fossil fuel consumption, adoption of clean, environmentally friendly technology, use of cleaner energy facilities, efficient energy usage for less consumption, building institutional framework that supports sustainable energy delivery and the decrease of greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs). Therefore, to address the complex environmental challenges that have put the lives of billions of people at risk, society requires a viable investment and the political will, vision, and determination to embrace viable institutional policy change in the sustainable energy sector and the change necessary to secure our collective future. conclusively, it is important to note that renewable energy sources, low carbon emissions, resource conservation, biodiversity and reduced environmental degradation are the pathway to mitigating this existential problem facing humanity. This study contributes to secured energy development in South Africa and by extension the entire emerging economies globally. This study will directly improve the reduction of global warming, better public health, secure energy supply, poverty eradication, wealth creation and better educational system.
