Abstract

Energy contributes greatly to every aspect of life and other activities, and is the main source of economic development of any country. Globally, the demand for electrical power has increased in recent times, causing a major increase in the price of various fuels. Energy production from various renewable and non-renewable resources is not new. However, its impact on the environment is a major concern. Several power plants from large hydro, wind, thermal and others are being used for energy generation, nevertheless the depletion of the environment is the major global concern. The challenges posed to the environment need to be tackled to protect our environment. This study evaluates the state of energy generation and distribution, and its potential environmental impacts on biodiversity, climate change, aquatic life, land use, emission generation, etc. We also propose some environmental management strategies that can help overcome these challenges.
