The demand for energy in the world is increasing every year. For this reason, future energy demands should be planned within the framework of efficiency and trust principles. In addition to the environment and natural resources, sustainability of development and justice in economic prosperity are also necessary for all societies. The priority in sustainable development is undoubtedly the issue of energy production and consumption. It is not possible to meet the increasing energy demand with economic growth and population growth with traditional energy production systems that have destroyed the environment so far. For this reason, renewable energy systems, which are the most important alternative, should be considered from the perspective of sustainable development. In this study, the development processes of the concepts of sustainability, sustainable development and the basic foundations of today were put forward and the current situation in energy production was analyzed. Finally, the relationship and interaction between renewable energy sources and sustainable development were discussed. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG. |
