Abstract

The seventh Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are to provide “Affordable and clean energy” to all by 2030. To achieve this, efforts should be made using renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, hydro, and thermal energy, particularly, in all developing countries to encourage power generation growth and help the environment. Renewable energy is free, abundant, and possesses non-polluting characteristics. Receiving energy from the above alternative energy sources has been around for a long time. In this chapter, the basic requirements and challenges of renewable energy-based power systems along with the role of the off-grid power system in achieving the seventh SDGs are discussed. Examples of several off-grid implementations are presented.
