The motivation behind this research on renewable energy and its role in sustainable development arises from the growing demand for energy and the heavy dependence on finite fossil fuel resources. These resources are threatened by depletion and have not fostered sustainable development due to their harmful emissions and inherent unsustainability. This has driven the search for renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, and tidal energy, with the objective of achieving sustainable development that integrates economic, social, environmental, and political dimensions. This study aims to explore the impact of renewable energy on sustainable development and to raise awareness of the need to conserve conventional energy sources, thereby enabling future generations to benefit from them. Additionally, it seeks to establish robust strategies for transitioning to renewable energy-based economies, to promote investment in this sector, and to drive research and development in renewable energy. Emphasis is placed on the significant environmental risks that humanity faces, as well as the potential global crisis that may arise if dependency on fossil fuels continues without the development of alternative energy sources. The importance of this study lies in highlighting the role of renewable energy in achieving sustainable development without environmental harm. Furthermore, it underscores the need to incentivize investments in renewable energy in light of ongoing environmental changes and challenges. The study also aims to alert investors in non-renewable energy to the impending risks associated with fossil fuel depletion.
