Abstract
In recent years, the world has witnessed a growing urgency to transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy
sources. The threat of climate change, depleting natural resources, and the desire for energy independence have
spurred a global movement towards cleaner, greener alternatives. Renewable energy, which encompasses solar,
wind, hydro, geothermal, and biomass, has emerged as a beacon of hope in our quest for a sustainable future. In this
article, we will explore the significance of renewable energy and highlight the numerous benefits it offers to individuals,
communities, and the planet as a whole.
Keywords: Renewable energy; Global movement; Energy security The shift towards a greener energy landscape creates new markets,
drives technological advancements, and positions nations at the
Introduction forefront of the clean energy revolution [8-10].
Renewable energy has gained significant traction as advancements Improved public health
