Abstract:
The cornerstone of a nation's stable economic progress hinges on the availability of a
dependable energy supply. Energy security stands as a pivotal component of economic
development and societal stability, as it serves as the fundamental input for all
production processes. Against the backdrop of a rising global warming trend, the
adoption of renewable energy technologies as alternative energy sources has evolved
into a technological innovation endeavor with far-reaching implications for the
environment, public health, and energy security. The world is moving towards the
adaptation of Sustainable energy to be utilized for different purposes. Notably, energy
consumption within private buildings and sectors plays a central role in the renewable
energy supply chain. Gaining insights into the factors influencing the acceptance of
Solar PV technologies holds paramount importance for government bodies and
regulatory agencies in the implementation of specific power generation solutions.
The main sources of energy across the word are fossils fuels, which emit enormous
amount of Greenhouse gases. To avoid the production of greenhouse gases, we should
be opted for Renewable energy. As far, from the literature review, RE sources which
have been identified are: Solar, Hydropower, Wind Power, Geothermal and Biodiesel.
Pakistan ranks as the seventh most vulnerable nation in the discourse on climate change.
The alterations in the country's natural climate are primarily attributed to a surge in CO2
emissions. Research indicates that the efforts to satisfy the energy demands of Pakistan's
expanding population have resulted in an annual emission of 14,500 million metric tons
of CO2. Energy generation from unclean sources has led to a 65% increase in CO2
emissions compared to the typical trend. This substantial emissions scenario has
contributed to a global mean temperature increase of 2.23 degrees Celsius by 2020. The
persistent growth in emissions, reaching 226,562,500 metric tons, is projected to
correspond to a 7.6-degree Celsius rise in global mean temperature by 2050.
