Many agrofood industries produce huge amount of waste in a form of biomass as a byproduct. Irregular disposal of this waste can cause a serious harm to the environment. However, such waste has received much attention as a renewable energy source. Recently, protecting the environment through a safe disposal of waste has gained much attention in order to guarantee a sustainable environment and su...

Environmental friendly renewable energy plays an indispensable role in energy industry development. Foreign direct investment (FDI) in advanced renewable energy technology spillover is promising to improve technological capability and promote China’s energy industry performance growth. In this paper, the impacts of FDI renewable energy technology spillover on China’s energy industry performance...

Both developed and developing countries have committed to reduce their emissions through the increased use of renewable energy. This paper aims to compare renewable energy deployment in developed and developing countries represented by Australia and China. The paper firstly argues the validity of comparison of renewable energy deployment in Australia and China. Then, the governance structures i...

Renewable energy technologies are suitable for off-grid services, serving the remote areas without having to build or extend expensive and complicated grid infrastructure. Therefore standalone system using renewable energy sources have become a preferred option. This paper is a review of hybrid renewable energy power generation systems focusing on energy sustainability. It highlights the resear...

the remarkable development of sciences and technologies in the world of]o today has apparently brought mankind comfort and well-being, but it has also created new problems for humans including environmental pollution, widespread changes in world weather conditions, etc. fossil fuels cause numerous environmental pollutions. in other words, on the one hand poisonous gases enter the environment fo...

Projections are important tools for long-term planning and policy settings. Renewable energy sources that use indigenous resources have the potential to provide energy services with zero or almost zero emissions of both air pollutants and greenhouse gases. Currently, renewable energy sources supply 14% of the total world energy demand. Renewable energy is a promising alternative solution becaus...
