Abstract
Renewable energy has emerged as a crucial solution to address the twin challenges of global climate change and the depletion of traditional energy resources. This study aims to analyze the potential of various renewable energy sources, including solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, and biomass energy, to replace conventional energy systems while mitigating environmental impacts. Through a review of current development status, this paper identifies key challenges, such as technological limitations, high initial costs, policy barriers, and resource intermittency, that hinder the adoption of renewables. Using a mixed-methods approach, including data analysis and case studies from leading renewable energy projects, the research highlights strategies for overcoming these challenges. The findings suggest that integrating innovative technologies, implementing supportive policies, and fostering international collaboration are critical to achieving a sustainable energy future. This paper concludes that while significant hurdles remain, renewable energy holds transformative potential to ensure long-term environmental and energy security.
