The Impact

Paper is characterized by scientific novelty as it involves a very scarce research problem in Lithuanian‘s energy sector, assessing the impact of renewable energy resources on the energy economy. Renewable energy sources have a multiplier effect in spurring the economy and the development of not only the energy sector but also all the supporting activities related to such industry. The impact of the development of renewable energy is one of the factors that develop the quality of technology innovation development. This study includes the impact of renewable energy on the energy economy, using multiple linear regression models. The results of the study have shown that renewable energy resources: wind, sun, water, geothermal and biomass can not always be used together because they compete with each other and therefore reduce the efficiency of the energy economy. In this context, three combinations of renewable energy resources have been developed, which have been adapted to assess the impact of the energy economy on energy productivity and energy intensity. It has been found that the combination of resources of the second model (M2) RE is significant for the efficiency of the energy economy.Keywords: Renewable energy resources; Energy economy; Impact of efficiency

The young law scientist from Georgia Giga Abuseridze has collected the information about subsidies in the renewable energy sector, their legal status and disagreements on the matter with the World Trade Organisation. As known, Latvia also does not possess unanimous opinion about the renewable energy resources. Jaunais tiesību zinātnieks no Gruzijas Giga Abuseridze ir apkopojis informāciju par subsīdijām atjaunojamās enerģijas nozarē, to juridisko statusu un domstarpībām šajā jautājumā ar Pasaules Tirdzniecības organizāciju. Kā zināms, arī Latvijā nav vienota viedokļa par atjaunojamiem energoresursiem.

Climate And Energy Policy

The main objective of the article is to identify the implications of implementing climate and energy policy for rural areas.Due to their quantitative and qualitative potential, rural areas participate to a significant degree in the achievement of the indicative targets resulting from the climatic package. Thanks to the production of biomass and, increasingly often, energy itself during the 2006-2016 period, the share of RES (renewable energy sources) in the production of primary energy grew twofold from 7.8% to 13.9%. Biomass was the main source, but since 2010 the use of wind and sun in the production of energy has been growing rapidly. Based on the analysis, it can be argued that by 2050 most of the energy and renewable energy resources will be produced in agriculture and rural areas. Implementing the commitments stemming from EU climate and energy policy can be an impetus for rural development.

Renewable Energy Resources

Renewable energy and clean energy have been on the global agenda for energy transition for quite a long time but recently gained strong momentum, especially with the anticipated depletion of fossil fuels alongside increasing environmental degradation from their exploitation and the changing climate caused by their excessive carbon emissions. Despite this, Africa’s pursuit to transition to a green economy using renewable energy resources still faces constraints that hamper further development and commercialization. These may include socio-economic, technical, political, financial, and institutional policy framework barriers. Although hydrogen demand is still low in Southern Africa, the region can meet the global demands for green hydrogen as a major supplier because of its enormous renewable energy resource-base. This article reviews existing renewable energy resources and hydrogen energy policies in the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The significance of this review is that it explores how clean energy technologies that utilize renewable energy resources address the United Nations sustainable development goals (UN SDGs) and identifies the hydrogen energy policy gaps. This review further presents policy options and recommends approaches to enhance hydrogen energy production and ramp the energy transition from a fossil fuel-based economy to a hydrogen energy-based economy in Southern Africa. Concisely, the transition can be achieved if the existing hydrogen energy policy framework gap is narrowed by formulating policies that are specific to hydrogen development in each country with the associated economic benefits of hydrogen energy clearly outlined.

Special Issue

The development of renewable energy sources plays a fundamental role in the transition towards a low carbon economy. Considering that renewable energy resources have an intrinsic relationship with meteorological conditions and climate patterns, methodologies based on the remote sensing of the atmosphere are fundamental sources of information to support the energy sector in planning and operation procedures. This Special Issue is intended to provide a highly recognized international forum to present recent advances in remote sensing to data acquisition required by the energy sector. After a review, a total of eleven papers were accepted for publication. The contributions focus on solar, wind, and geothermal energy resource. This editorial presents a brief overview of each contribution.

Hybrid Renewable Energy

Many people in rural society of India does not have access to natural energy resources like LPG , electricity as there is no facilitation of grid erection. Hence it becomes imperative for country like India to go for renewable energy resources as alternative to conventional energy resources. This paper evaluations the potential of different sources of renewable energy in India. It also highlights the trends in the growth of renewable energy sector, although at the same time shows that there is need of a hybrid renewable energy model for rural electrification in India. Paper also shows the scope in using the agriculture waste as bio fuel which burned otherwise and prompt health hazards besides environmental pollution, also describing many technologies which are in the demonstration stage like Tidal, OTEC, Solar thermal power plants. Many constraints put development in the field of solar and wind sector, on hold like availability of solar rays throughout the year . The main aim of the paper is to evaluation all possible options in renewable energy sector so that large segment of rural population can have access to electricity and to meet their basic energy needs.

Due to the increase in demand for energy resources and the effect of the ongoing events in the region of Jordan. The energy resources are decreasing over time and that also has a negative effect on the Jordanian economy. Providing energy is always a vital and significant problem in Jordan. Jordan on the other hand is a rich in some of the renewable energy resources, which are not fully used until this moment. Therefore, it is essential to find alternative and renewable energy resources. Moreover, there is also a lack in creating a clear and long term future plans in the energy field. In this paper, energy sources and the efficiency of the energy sector in Jordan will be specified, in addition to the determination of the cofounders and sponsors for enhancing and developing the energy sector. The shift in policy that is needed to increase this efficiency will be also investigated.
