Full textAbstract:
The Ukrainian energy sector is one of the most inflexible energy sectors in the world as a result of the almost complete depreciation of the equipment of the main sources of power supply: nuclear, thermal, and hydropower. In connection with existing problems, there is a need to develop and use new energy-saving technologies based on renewable energy sources. In this proposed research, a regression model of renewable energy growth in the energy sector of Ukraine was developed. The studied literature reveals that the independent use of individual functioning elements of renewable energy sources function as the primary power source that is not an optimal solution for stable energy supply. This study proposes the use of hybrid renewable energy systems, namely a combination of two or more renewable energy sources that will help each other to achieve higher energy efficiency, accelerate the growth of renewable energy in the share of the Ukrainian energy sector and/or improve functioning with battery energy storages. Moreover, the use of hybrid renewable energy systems in Ukraine will reduce the human impact on the environment, realize the potential of local renewable energy resources and also increase the share of electricity generation from renewable energy sources. Therefore, mechanisms for managing state regulation of stimulating the development of hybrid renewable energy systems have been developed.

Full textAbstract:
Energy transition requires actions from different sectors and levels, mainly focused on achieving a low-carbon and high-renewable integration society. Among the different sectors, the transport sector is responsible for more than 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions, mostly emitted in cities. Therefore, initiatives and analysis focused on electric vehicles integration powered by renewables is currently a desirable solution to mitigate climate change and promote energy transition. Under this framework, this paper proposes a multi-indicator analysis for the estimation of CO2 emissions combining renewable integration targets, reduction emission targets and realistic renewable resource potentials. Four scenarios are identified and analyzed: (i) current situation with conventional vehicles, (ii) replacement of such conventional by electric vehicles without renewable integration, (iii) and (iv) integration of renewables to fulfill emission reduction targets for 2030 and 2050 respectively. The analysis is evaluated in the state of Maine (United States). From the results, a minimum renewable penetration of 39% and 82%, respectively, is needed to fulfill the emission reduction targets for 2030 and 2050 by considering 100% conventional vehicle replacement. Different combinations of available renewable resources can reduce emissions by more than 35%.

Full textAbstract:
This paper discusses some considerations and advances a number of proposals about the potential of Agricultural Engineering to contribute to the field of renewable energy, with an emphasis on biomass. Several areas for action are identified. First, general education and teaching of students who will go on to become technicians and professionals in the sector of renewable energies, even though the characteristics of the sectors are still fuzzy. Diffusion of the energy culture, a too often neglected aspect that is however indispensable to sustain the overdue penetration of renewable energies in Italy, is an additional area for action. Another critical area, energy planning, is currently viewed mainly as involving the assessment on more or less wide areas of energy consumption and for the scope of replacing fossil resources with renewables to meet some energy requirements. A more complex, overarching issue is energy efficiency, especially of buildings, which should be a mainstay of the planning process but is in fact not so clearly addressed in development plans for renewables. At this same level, all interactions among production sectors should be assessed, to enhance the role of agriculture, one of the new potential energy-producing sectors and one of the possible prospective suppliers of renewable energy for different final users, from households to the service sector and industry. Agricultural Engineering has the skills needed to implement all these different actions. A role for it in advanced research, i.e. biotechnologies, can and should also be envisaged. Its work in the renewable energy sector should closely involve microbiological, genetic, chemical, agronomic, and animal research to define the goals to be pursued and to implement intuitions. In this way, Agricultural Engineering would increasingly be characterized as Biosystems Engineering.

Full textAbstract:
Europe is in the middle of an energy crisis, exacerbated in large part by skyrocketing gas costs. Renewable energy is critical in this environment for decreasing Europe’s reliance on imported energy; boosting renewables in Europe requires a ‘New Energy Compact’—a coordinated effort throughout Europe to build more renewable energy capacity. The purpose of this research is to examine the structure of renewable energy production in Romania between 2010 and 2020, as well as the green employment produced by the renewable energy sector in Romania between 2010 and 2019. Using the Markov chain approach, it was predicted that in 2025, the hydropower industry’s employees would account for the biggest proportion of the overall average number of workers engaged in the renewable energy production sector in Romania (74.68%). Solar energy production employees will account for 14.31% of the average number of workers in the renewable energy production sector, biomass energy production employees will account for 5.8%, and wind energy production employees will account for 5.2% of the average number of workers in the green energy sector.

Full textAbstract:
German Energy transition could be considered to be one of the most challenging a widescaled reforms, quite capital-intensive, requiring a high level of scientific input, having an influence on other economic sectors and economic entities. Energy reform is intended to increase the energy security level by increasing the share of renewables in its energy portfolio, environmental protection by decreasing the emission into the atmosphere and the level of energy consumption. Since 1990 the share of renewables in the whole energy sector and in electricity sector has been rising steadily. Governmental support, including direct finance, fiscal benefits and creating favorable market conditions for the sector has been expanding for renewable and declining for traditional energy. The costs for renewable energy are more transparent, during those for traditional energy are often hidden and indirectly charge the budget, can emerge later in form of subsequent costs of the climate. However, the system of support itself discloses its imperfection, when its implementation causes an opposite impact or contradiction between several instruments, which are actually aimed to solve one problem. Given the high strategic importance of the goals set, even an evident necessity to revise the mechanism of governmental support doesn't, however, mean that the government doubts the usefulness of the reform.

Excessive use of traditional energy sources such as fossil fuels has resulted in significant environmental deterioration. India is one of the world’s fastest-growing energy consumers, and it is making continual efforts to increase renewable energy generation. The use of renewable energy sources to generate electricity is expanding every day. Renewable energy integration with existing power systems is a difficult endeavor that necessitates strategy and development. Climate-friendly energy systems will result from the use of renewable energy sources in power generation, as they lower CO2 emissions caused by fossil fuels used in conventional power generation. This research looks at a renewable energy scenario using Gujarat as a case study, which is a leader in renewable energy generation. The policies taken by the Gujarat government to increase renewable energy’s participation in the energy mix, as well as the challenges and potential solutions for boosting the deployment of renewable energy sources across Gujarat, are discussed. This study can be used as a guide for policymakers and researchers in other states and around the world who want to boost renewable energy share.

The study explores the effect of renewable energy consumption on sectoral output in the presence of government effectiveness. A regressions method was used to analyze data from 1989 to 2019. The result revealed evidence of the positive and vital impact of renewable energy consumption on the sectoral output of the manufacturing and construction sectors. Although the elasticity of government effectiveness is neutral, trade openness has revealed evidence of positive and significant impact on sectoral outputs. However, population growth does not have a favourable impact on sectoral outputs. Furthermore, renewable energy consumption is not essential in determining the agricultural sector, transportation sector and other sectors. To quickly diversify the economy, policymakers should further increase awareness and provide more incentives for renewable energy in these sectors

Full textAbstract:
This study explored the association between renewable energy uptake and digitalization in the sector by reviewing relevant literature (published 2010–2022), with the aim of identifying the existing utilization of digital technologies within the sector, challenges to adoption, and future prospects. Different search engines (SCOPUS, Web of Science, and Google Scholar) were used to locate relevant papers and documents. The results revealed the high significance of digital technologies in supporting the renewable energy sector, with high costs and security risks representing the key challenges. Most papers reviewed had a positive outlook, but recommended further research and development for effective energy transition and resilient infrastructure. The current drivers of the integration of digital technologies to support the diffusion of renewable energy sources appear to extend beyond energy demand and involve many aspects of sustainability and sustainable development. Compared with previous reviews, this work has unique scope and novelty since it considers the bigger picture of the coupling between digitalization and the renewable energy sector, with a greater focus on critical areas in these two interconnected bodies that need to be addressed. The relatively small sample of relevant papers (69 from 836 hits) located in the literature review confirms the need for more research covering the subject in greater depth.

As recently as the year 2010, renewable energy contributed less than 1% of all the energy sources in South Africa. Possible reasons include the lack of private sector investment in Renewable Energy technologies. By way of a structured interview methodology, this paper explores the reasons why private investors are reluctant to invest in renewables. The responses point to political, economic, social and technological barriers limiting private investment in renewable energy. Other barriers that were identified include poverty, low levels of education, limited technological readiness and access to the electricity grid. Some of these barriers are specific to the South African context. The paper concludes that a closer relationship between government and the private sector is required to stimulate innovation in the renewable energy sector.

Green energy has become a hot debate among countries. Most countries prefer green energy over fossil resources that can violate the environment and health. The manufacturing sector was the most energy-intensive sector in Malaysia, and Johor was the fastest-growing industrial state and the biggest user of fuel energy. The cost factor has become one of the reasons why renewable energy is less used in this country. If not curbed, this situation will thwart the government’s target to reduce the dependency on non–renewable energy. Thus, participation from the manufacturing sector is important to support government efforts to empower renewable energy. Support from the manufacturing sector and their Willingness to Pay (WTP) for energy production from renewable energy resources remain key ingredients for a successful energy policy. This study aims to estimate the WTP for renewable energy investment attributes among the manufacturing sectors in Johor, Malaysia. A series of stated Choice Experiments (CE) was used in which the Multinomial Logit (MNL) model was valued to ascertain manufacturing sectors’ WTP based on their preferences for the attributes. The results revealed that the manufacturing sector values project location and annual GHG reduction.

Full textAbstract:
This study examines the impact of public R&D expenditures in the fossil fuel and renewable energy sectors on energy transition through the carbon intensity variable. The analysis uses Pedroni's Panel Cointegration Test and the Group Mean Panel Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares, utilizing data from 16 IEA countries between 1993 and 2022. Unlike previous studies that primarily focus on either general R&D expenditures or aggregate energy sector R&D, this study provides a comparative analysis of fossil and renewable sectors, addressing a significant gap in the literature. The findings reveal that public R&D expenditures in the renewable energy sector may significantly reduce carbon intensity, whereas public R&D expenditures in the fossil fuel sector increase carbon intensity. These results suggest that, contrary to the common assumption in the literature, the heterogeneous effects of R&D spending across subsectors of energy industry should be taken into account. Therefore, Redirecting R&D expenditures toward renewable energy technologies, rather than fossil energy sector, may accelerate the energy transition process.

<abstract> <p>Over the past few years, an increase in energy demand has been observed along with the required additional energy supply. These are some of the major challenges that governments are facing at a global level. The dependence on fossil fuels for energy generation is one of the main reasons behind global warming and the increased levels of pollution. Additionally, the limited reserve of fossil fuels means that it is not a sustainable source of energy that can be relied upon indefinitely. As a result, various governments around the world have sought renewable energy to provide a clean and sustainable source of energy. However, the main problem facing renewable energy projects is the upfront cost needed for them. Thus, governments have sought partnerships with the private sector to take advantage of their expertise and their financing. As a result, renewable energy projects have become commonly delivered as public-private partnerships (PPPs). This study reports on the renewable energy PPP market globally through a detailed literature review and questionnaire. The responses of 86 experts were collected and classified based on whether their experience was in developed or developing countries. The results showed that the main barriers affecting renewable energy PPPs globally are political and regulatory barriers. While the experts highlighted that the public sector cannot appropriately identify, value, or transfer risks, the private sector was highlighted as an efficient party in dealing with risks. In addition, the analysis contrasted renewable energy PPP market in developed and developed countries.</p> </abstract>

This study, using annual World Bank data from 1990 to 2022, examines the relationship and impact of renewable energy consumption on Malaysia’s economic and industry, service, and agriculture sectors’ growth. The findings suggest that the renewable energy sector is cointegrated and has a significant positive impact on the overall economy, and the industry and service sectors in the long run. Furthermore, the Granger causality Wald test results support the growth, neutrality, and conservation hypotheses for the overall economy, industry, agriculture, and service sectors, respectively, in the short run. Overall, the results suggest that renewable energy could benefit Malaysia's economy in varying degrees across the three important sectors. Therefore, prioritizing investments in renewable energy consumption within the industry and service sectors is crucial, as they offer the largest positive impact on economic growth. Additionally, the adoption of technologies in agricultural sector is low, thus efforts to enhance access to modern farming techniques using renewable energy should be promoted to improve the performance of the agricultural sector.

This study examines the effect of international financial flows, including investments and development assistance, on the expansion of renewable energy technologies. It also seeks to investigate the impact of the sectoral economy on the proportion of renewable energy consumption in Ethiopia. This study used an explanatory research design and a quantitative research approach. An autoregressive distributed lag model was applied to explore the long and short-term relationship among variables. A time series of data aggregated and disaggregated ranging from 2000 to 2022 was used. According to this study, sustainable finance programs are essential for advancing and aiding renewable energy projects in the long and short term. Ethiopia’s use of renewable energy will increase as sustainable finance rises. The main economic sectors determining Ethiopia’s consumption of renewable energy in the long and short term include the manufacturing, mining and service industries. This study’s findings imply that policies focusing on providing continuous financial support and fostering international cooperation to promote the development of the manufacturing sector are needed. This could include incentives for adopting renewable energy technologies and investing in renewable energy infrastructure. On the other hand, since the service and mining industries negatively impact renewable energy use, there is a need to diversify renewable energy sources beyond these sectors. This could involve promoting renewable energy projects in other sectors, such as manufacturing, agriculture, construction and trade. Based on the findings of this study, it is suggested that policymakers carefully consider the consequences within each economic sector when formulating decisions related to renewable energy. This study is novel in presenting empirical evidence linking renewable energy use to long- and short-term economic growth.

The transition to a sustainable energy future in Ghana faces critical challenges, particularly in integrating renewable energy sources like solar and wind into the national grid. This study examined Ghana’s progress in renewable energy adoption using the International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) Model for Energy Supply Strategies and Their General Environmental Impacts (MESSAGE) tool. It evaluates the feasibility of achieving the 10% renewable energy target set in national energy policies by 2030 and beyond, highlighting key challenges and their impact on the country’s energy transition efforts. The findings revealed a significant shortfall, with renewable energy penetration reaching only 4.77%, far below the targeted 10%. The actual installed capacity of renewable energy sources ranges from 150.87 MW to 377.18 MW, falling considerably short of the projected 219.75 MW to 645.71 MW from 2020 to 2050, respectively. Expanding Ghana’s renewable energy sector remains challenging, with fossil-based thermal generation continuing to dominate, raising concerns about emissions and sustainability. Overcoming barriers to renewable energy penetration requires targeted policies, investment in energy storage, smart grids, and financial incentives. Additionally, integrating renewables with low-carbon baseload options like Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) could accelerate Ghana’s energy transition. Achieving a sustainable energy future will depend on strong governmental commitment, private sector involvement, and technological innovation to bridge the gap between energy targets and actual capacity while significantly creating jobs.

Full textAbstract:
Indonesia is a developing country with a high dependence on fossil fuels. To promote renewable energy, the government has implemented several policies, including a feed-in tariff system and tax incentives. However, the renewable energy sector in Indonesia still faces various challenges, including the fiscal policy gap. This paper aims to analyze the political economy of Indonesia’s renewable energy sector and its fiscal policy gap. We argue that the fiscal policy gap is the result of the interests of fossil fuel stakeholders who have managed to influence policy-making processes. We conclude that to overcome the fiscal policy gap, the government needs to establish a strong political will to promote renewable energy and reduce the influence of fossil fuel stakeholders. The article “The Political Economy of Indonesia’s Renewable Energy Sector and Its Fiscal Policy Gap” provides an analysis of the political economy of Indonesia's renewable energy sector and the gap in its fiscal policy. The study aims to understand the reasons for the slow progress of Indonesia's renewable energy sector and to propose a policy framework for accelerating its development. The study uses a qualitative research method and draws on data from a variety of sources, including academic studies, policy documents, and interviews with industry experts and policymakers. The findings reveal that the slow progress of Indonesia's renewable energy sector is due to a lack of political will, institutional fragmentation, and a lack of coordination among stakeholders. The study recommends that Indonesia adopt a comprehensive and integrated policy framework to overcome these challenges, including developing a national energy strategy, implementing effective fiscal incentives, and improving the regulatory environment.

The article aims to identify the changes in the number of employees in European Union (EU) countries in the renewable energy sector in 2018 compared to 2014. EurObserv’ER yearbooks were the source of data on employment and capacity for selected renewable energy sources. The paper uses descriptive and pair-wise comparison methods. The largest decreases in employment were observed among countries that are leaders in the RES market (e.g., Germany, France). On the other hand, the greatest increases in employment were determined by source development opportunities in a given country, e.g., biofuels in Romania, Poland, Hungary, or Lithuania. The conducted pair-wise comparison indicated that the relation between the change in the ranking position and the change in the number of employees was significant for EU countries, whose ranking positions are both in the first (combination AA – I) and the second ten (combination CC – II) in the RES sector. Moreover, the results of the statistical analysis indicated a significant relationship and p-value significance in 11 out of 12 variables adopted for correlation, covering the number of employed and installed capacity in selected RES sectors in 2014 and 2018.

Full textAbstract:
The paper aims at analyzing financial capital behavior in the renewable energy sector of Nepal. The study consists of a descriptive research design based on both primary and secondary data. The necessary primary data were collected through a field survey by using a structured questionnaire on a sample of 118 Nepalese renewable energy enterprises having 264 respondents while the secondary data were collected through the relevant publications from January to March 2016. The collected data were analyzed using simple statistical tools such as tables, mean, rank, and percentage to derive results leading to major findings of the study. The major components of the renewable energy sector comprise biogas, solar and micro-hydro companies ranging from micro to medium enterprises in Nepal. The study concludes that the initial investment appeared to vary with the sectors of enterprises. The major source of financial capital for renewable energy enterprises is their capital. Financial capital is a vital and basic requirement of entrepreneurship in the sector. This study is useful for biogas companies, solar companies, and micro-hydro construction companies to grow their own business by focusing on the financial capital behavior in the renewable energy sector of Nepal. The study can be extended by incorporating other sectors of renewable energy, such as improved cooking stoves, wind technology, and biomass sectors to get greater insight into the results.

Full textAbstract:
Process heat electrification, energy efficiency improvement, and renewable technology integration are the most effective ways of achieving industrial decarbonization. However, precise knowledge of thermal energy demands and excess heat sources along with the corresponding temperature levels is imperative for the most optimum integration of aforementioned process. The current study presents a novel methodology for constructing sector-wide composite curves to accurately characterize the thermal energy demands and the available excess heat sources for the Swiss industry subsectors. The sector-wide energy demand profiles derived from this methodology offer valuable insights into the quantity of heat demand and the quality of the available excess heat. Thus, enabling the implementation of energy efficiency and decarbonization technologies such as heat pumps, and renewable heating and cooling technologies. The sector-wide energy demand profiles are built using Pinch Analyses and top-down statistical approach, thus ensuring complete sectoral coverage. The application of this novel approach is demonstrated using Swiss meat and chocolate industry subsectors as case studies. Based on the sector-wide energy demand profiles developed for meat and chocolate production, heat pump integration and solar thermal integration can potentially reduce about 80% of process heat demand, for both sectors.

India's power sector is undergoing a significant energy transition. This means moving away from a heavy reliance on fossil fuels like coal for electricity generation and embracing cleaner, renewable energy sources like solar and wind. This shift is driven by a desire to combat climate change and air pollution, along with ensuring energy security. The transition involves installing a massive amount of renewable energy capacity, but also requires improvements in energy storage and grid management to handle the variable nature of renewables. Success also hinges on policy changes and investments to make renewables more affordable and integrate them effectively into the power grid. This transition holds the promise of a cleaner, more sustainable future for India's energy sector.

Full textAbstract:
This article, written by JPT Technology Editor Chris Carpenter, contains highlights of paper IPTC 21348, “The Color of Energy: The Competition To Be the Energy of the Future,” by Hon Chung Lau, National University of Singapore, prepared for the 2021 International Petroleum Technology Conference, held virtually 23 March–1 April. The paper has not been peer reviewed. Copyright 2021 International Petroleum Technology Conference. Reproduced by permission. The author of the complete paper, for the purposes of this study, characterizes energies as brown, blue, or green. Brown energies are carbon dioxide (CO2)-emitting fossil fuels, such as gas, oil, or coal. Blue energies use carbon capture and storage (CCUS) technologies to remove the emitted CO2 from brown energies. Green energies are zero- or low-CO2-emitting renewable energies. By analyzing the CO2 intensity and levelized cost of energy of energy carriers of different colors, the author shows that renewable energies are best used in replacing fossil fuels in the power sector, where they have the greatest effect in reducing CO2 emission. Overview By 2017, only 11% of the world’s final consumption came from renewable energies, 85% came from fossil fuel, and 4% came from nuclear energy. Energy consumption can be divided into three sectors: power, transport, and thermal. At the time of writing, 26.4% of global power (electricity) consumption comes from renewable energies. In this sphere, renewable energies are making the most significant contribution in reducing CO2 emission. Forty-one percent of CO2 emission comes from electricity and heat, 21% from transport, and 21% from industry. Consequently, the key to global decarbonization is to decarbonize these three sectors. Green Energy Is Preferred Green energies consist of six major types: solar photovoltaic, solar thermal, wind, hydroelectricity, geothermal, and biomass. If 1 kWh of electricity generated by renewable energy (with the exception of biomass) is used to replace 1 kWh of electricity generated by fossil fuel, the net CO2 savings will amount to 0.8, 0.6, and 0.4 kg for replacing coal, oil, and natural gas, respectively. However, if 1 kWh of renewable electricity is used to generate green hydrogen (H2), which is then used for heat generation in industry, it will yield roughly 0.8 kWh of thermal energy, which replaces the same amount of thermal energy by natural gas. This amounts to a CO2 savings of only 0.16 kg CO2/kWh. Consequently, renewable power has the highest CO2 savings effect if it is used to replace fossil fuel for power generation rather than to replace fossil fuel for heat generation. Decarbonizing the Power Sector The power sector is easiest to decarbonize. The three methods foreseen to decarbonize the power sector are nuclear power, blue electricity generated by fossil-fuel power plants equipped with CCUS, and green electricity produced by renewables. The use of nuclear power plants is a country-specific issue. The dual challenge of nuclear plant safety and nuclear waste storage is a key sustainability issue. Recently, interest has been renewed in the idea of increasing investment in nuclear energy for decarbonizing the power sector. It is noteworthy that the countries for whom more than a quarter of their power generation is provided by nuclear energy are all in Europe.

The aim of the paper is to present the interrelationship between the sustainable energy, especially renewable energy sector and sustainable agriculture policy from both: the European and the global perspectives. In the world and European economy the role of Renewable Energy Technologies is still increasing. Energy efficiency; sustainable agriculture; renewable energies for rural development belong to main poles of sustainable development in the world economy and its regions. Agriculture is one of the economic sectors to which the EU commitment to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases applies. Like any other economic sector, agriculture produces greenhouse gases and is a major source of the non- CO2 greenhouse gases methane and nitrous oxide. It is also the strong relationship between the sustainable agriculture sector and the renewable energy development possibilities. The sustainable agriculture can be seen as a source of renewable energy.

Full textAbstract:
As a result of the emerging energy crisis and the requirement for countries to utilize more energy derived from renewable sources, demand for renewable energy technologies is likely to rise. Therefore, it is critical that production of such technologies is ramped up in order to meet this demand. However, evidence suggests that engineering and manufacturing companies in the UK are not entering the renewables market at the desired rate and, hence, renewable supply chains currently lack the ability to respond to increased demand due to the lack of businesses willing to move into supplying the renewables sector. Through a three phased research approach, this paper will identify the barriers and risks that are suggested as reasons why companies do not invest and operate within the renewables sector. Through further analysis obtained from the survey work and focus groups, the paper goes on to identify and categorize these barriers and risks in the form of ‘system constraints’ which are then used to construct a current reality tree (CRT) that connects the constraints into a comprehensive characterization map of the sector which suggests why companies fail to enter the renewables supply chain market. The CRT identifies the complex arrangement of issues which act as risks and barriers. These issues include; poor supply chain readiness leading to a company’s inability to respond quickly and correctly to opportunities, a lack of suitable policies and government investment in the renewables infrastructure (which leads to a lack of opportunities for supply-chain companies) and a lack of knowledge of the sector by companies, meaning that supply-chain companies are resistant to investing in the sector for fear of poor return on investment. This work provides key insights into the UK manufacturing supply chain and its attitudes to entering the renewables sector. Furthermore, the paper also applies and evaluates the use of the CRT technique and ascertains its suitability to effectively characterize sector issues and its current problems.

This paper uses numerical techno-economic modelling to analyse the effect of current national renewable targets and climate goals on the cost and structural composition of the Mexican energy system. For this, we construct a scenario base analysis to compare current policies with two alternative states of the world—one without climate policies and one attaining full decarbonization. Furthermore, an additional iterative routine allows us to estimate the cost-optimal share of renewable technologies in the energy sector and the effect that deviating from this share has on total discounted system costs, emissions and the structure of the energy mix. In general, model results exhibit three key insights—(1) A marked dependence of the energy system on photovoltaics and natural gas; (2) The 2050 cost-optimal share of renewables for the production of electricity, transportation and industrial heating is respectively 75%, 90% and 5%; and (3) As national renewable targets for the power sector are lower than the cost-optimal share of renewables, equivalent to the shares in an scenario without climate policies and completely disconnected from national climate goals, these should be modified.

Abstract: The government of the Republic of Indonesia has reported that Indonesia potentially have more than 400,000 Megawatts (MW) of renewable energy by 2021. However, there is no comprehensive study about the trend of development and priority movement in the renewable energy sector. The main reason for the absence of this study is the lack of significant information and reports on the prospects for renewable energy in Indonesia. The present study aims to provide a basic understanding of renewable energy sector growth in Indonesia. The study uses quantitative analysis with the secondary data obtained from the literature. The result showed that the hydropower plant contributed the highest energy production in Indonesia followed by bioenergy, solar energy, and wind energy. Furthermore, the production trends of hydropower plants and bioenergy were relatively stagnant over the last 11 years, and the highest significant improvement was found in the solar energy sector. However, the number of solar energy production was far away from the targeted goal in RUEN (National Energy Master Plan/Rencana Utama Energi Nasional) 2017. The high cost of the solar energy sector become the main reason for the unsuccessful development of solar energy in Indonesia. Furthermore, several administrations and regulations were found to the political reasons which delay the energy transition improvement. The Government of the Republic of Indonesia must be able to improve and form regulations in the form of tax reduction regulations and electricity export-import subsidies to spur the growth and development of renewable energy in Indonesia. Opening up space for renewable energy investment in the public sector is a real contribution to society and is a solution to accelerate the achievement of the energy transition in Indonesia.Abstrak: Pemerintah Republik Indonesia telah melaporkan bahwa Indonesia memiliki potensi lebih dari 400.000 Megawatts (MW) Energi Baru dan Terbarukan (EBT) di tahun 2021. Namun, penelitian terhadap pola pengembangan dan pergerakan pengembangan EBT masih belum banyak ditemukan. Alasan utama dari tidak ditemukan penelitian ataupun studi tentang potensi EBT di Indonesia adalah keterbatasan informasi dan laporan terhadap prospek EBT di Indonesia. Studi ini bertujuan untuk menyediakan pemahaman dasar dari perkembangan sektor EBT di Indonesia. Studi ini menggunakan analisis kuantitatif dengan menggunakan data sekunder yang diperoleh dari berbagai literatur. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga (PLT) Air menjadi sektor yang paling banyak memproduksi EBT di Indonesia disusul oleh PLT Bioenergi, PLT Surya, dan PLT Bayu. Namun, pola produksi energi menunjukkan PLT Air dan PLT Bioenergi menunjukkan produktivitas yang relative tetap pada 11 tahun terakhir dimana peningkatan produktivitas terbesar berada pada PLT Surya. Namun, jumlah produktivitas PLT Surya masih tergolong kecil jika dibandingkan dengan jumlah produksi target yang dilaporkan pada Rancangan Utama Energi Nasional (RUEN) 2017. Biaya yang tinggi dari PLT Surya menjadi alasan utama dari ketidakberhasilan pengembangan PLT Surya di Indonesia. Selain itu, beberapa alasan administratif dan regulasi ditemukan menjadi alasan politis yang dapat memperlambat pengembangan transisi energi di Indonesia. Pemerintah Republik Indonesia harus mampu memperbaiki dan membentuk regulasi berupa adanya regulasi pengurangan pajak dan subsidi ekspor-impor listrik untuk memacu pertumbuhan dan perkembangan energi terbarukan di Indonesia. Membuka ruang untuk investasi energi terbarukan ke sektor public merupakan kontribusi nyata ke masyarakat merupakan solusi untuk mempercepat pencapaian transisi energi di Indonesia.

Energy is playing a substantial role in shaping the countries’ development and there should be sustainable energy for sustainable development. United Nations launched Sustainable Development Goals in 2015 for countries’ sustainability, achievable by 2030. India is the fastest-growing country in the world. It has been tremendous progress in renewable energy sectors in the last few years. Renewable energy has huge potential and for utilizing those potential this paper unravels the transformative potential of renewable energy in India’s pursuit. The review of academic literature, reports, and statistical data shows that India’s energy supply and consumption are still denominated by non-renewable energy sources. The FDI sector of energy is also dominated by non-renewable energy. This paper identifies the research gap, particularly in terms of linking the renewable energy sector with SDGs by showing the contribution of renewable energy towards the achievements of SDGs.

Published in June 2019, the new edition of the annually updated Renewables Global Status Report (GSR) compiles the most recent developments and trends in the adoption of renewable energies worldwide and in specific regions, countries and sectors. The report represents a rich resource for reliable and up-to-date information about individual renewable energy sources and their use. The analysis also covers a review of energy policies. Renewable energy policies still strongly concentrate on the power sector, while transport and heating and cooling are given less attention. Most investment in renewable energy today happens in developing and emerging countries, which is a major change to the situation some years ago. The 2019 edition of the GSR report includes a feature on renewable energy in cities, which highlights the importance of prioritising the urban context in order to achieve more sustainable schemes of energy supply and consumption. More than half of the global population today lives in cities, but around two-thirds of energy consumption happens in an urban environment. The GSR 2019 identifies that cities already are among the most active players in the adoption of renewable energies. One interesting finding is that in more than 100 cities worldwide at least 70% of the electricity already comes from renewables. This includes cities in both developed and developing countries.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of the work is to analyze some global scenarios for bioenergy development, including the development in certain sectors, as well as to identify priority areas for bioenergy in Ukraine. Today, bioenergy is a world leader in renewable energy, playing a significant role in replacing fossil fuels and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Over the last twenty years, the global primary energy supply from biomass and biofuels has tripled and reached more than 10% of the total primary energy supply, accounting for almost 70% of the contribution of all renewable sources. The International Renewable Energy Agency predicts that by 2050, renewable energy sources could account for 60% or more of the total final energy consumption of many countries. The share of biomass in the global final consumption of renewable energy might be almost half in 2030 and 40% in 2050. According to the International Energy Agency, starting from 2030, one can expect to use only modern bioenergy technologies with increasing consumption of modern biomass up to about 100 EJ in 2050. For Ukraine, the priority areas seem to be combined heat and power production from biomass, as well as production of biomethane for the direct replacement of natural gas and carbon-neutral balancing of the energy system with a high share of renewable sources. For the thermal energy sector, the introduction of modern boilers and CHP plants running mainly on agricultural biomass is recommended. For the transport sector, prospects are the production of first and second generation liquid biofuels, as well as biomethane from biomass obtained in compliance with sustainability criteria.
