Although renewable energy  has proved to be favourable for sustainable development  there are still many negative myths among people. To help people know more about it, we list here the five more important benefits of renewable energies:

Help Us Fight Climate Change

As it does not emit greenhouse gases during its production, renewable energy  is an essential ally to mitigate society’s impact on the environment , thus helping reduce the effects of climate change.

Its Resources Do Not Exhaust

Renewable energy  sources are inexhaustible and adapt to natural cycles, unlike conventional energy sources (coal, gas, oil or nuclear energy). This make it the key to create a sustainable energy system  that enhances local development without risking the future of next generations.

It Reduces Economic Uncertainty

Unlike energy generation from fossil fuels, whose costs constantly change and depend on the circumstances, the production costs of renewable energies  are foreseeable and plannable. In addition, renewable energies  can be found in any part of the planet, which is a differential advantage for domestic economies, ensuring energy independence as fossil fuel imports will be no longer necessary.

It Is Good for Domestic Economy

According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), duplicating the renewable energy  quota worldwide until reaching 36% would mean the rise of employment from 9.2 million to more than 24 million people in the sector in 2030. Furthermore, global economy would grow by 1.1% (equivalent to 1.3 trillion dollars).

It Is Competitive and Accepted Around the World

For many years now, the costs of renewable energies  have been globally decreasing thanks to the development of new technologies that improve their efficiency as well as the growing political support they received across the world given their many benefits. Currently, the public opinion is in favour of clean energy  and sustainable  technologies.
