Abstract | ||
Economic development has historically been closely linked to the increase in the use of energy from traditional sources, which was accompanied by an increase in the emission of greenhouse gases. This necessitated the search for new energy sources that could help reduce harmful emissions and separate this simultaneous link, in the light of which the use of renewable energy technologies was guided, to provide access to clean energy services and meet the energy economy need. Especially since delving into renewable energy implies that it is a hierarchy of goals and restrictions according to global, regional or local considerations, allowing the creation of the necessary ingredients to contribute to achieving the goals and objectives of sustainable development, including obtaining energy from renewable and safe sources to reduce negative effects on the environment and health caused by climate changes. Mitigation of dangerous changes in climate is seen as one of the strong reasons behind the increased use of renewable energy worldwide. The research aims to address the importance of renewable energies to enhance the efficiency of energy use in light of the current challenges and their repercussions in the extent of accelerating the achievement of sustainable development goals, as well as Iraq's serious attempts to develop work in this field to match the requirements of the local environment. The research stems from the premise that sustainable development is a function of renewable energies. The research reached a number of conclusions and recommendations, the most important of which is that the initial costs of establishing renewable energy plants are high, which requires careful planning before starting the implementation process. He recommended the necessity of paying attention to the technology of using renewable energies and developing working methods in it to comply with the environmental conditions in order to achieve the dimensions of sustainable development | ||
