Renewable energy (RE) is a field in which an increasing number of academic studies are being conducted on multiple dimensions, including technical, economic, political, and social. Wide and varied disciplines conduct research on the processes of making an investment decision in renewable energy, developing, and adopting policies for this purpose, selecting RE suitable for the location, establishing it by taking economic and environmental factors into account, developing energy distribution and storage systems, and supporting regional development. To accurately calculate the installation costs, which are viewed as one of the barriers to a greater use of renewable energy, the co-benefits of RE must be analyzed and transferred to this calculation, and thus to the decision-making processes. Understanding these co-benefits will also facilitate consumer adoption of sustainable energy sources. In addition to economic growth, financial development, employment growth, and regional development, it is crucial to understand the public health benefits of renewable energy. Through bibliometric analysis, which permits the quantification and visualization of qualitative data, the status and development of the literature on the health benefits of RE are examined in this study. The study determined the most researched topics, current issues and trends, and prominent issues in academic studies. The transition to environmentally friendly energies can be accelerated by increasing public awareness of health co-benefits from a more holistic perspective. |
