Abstract
The global demand for renewable energy sources has been increasing. Microalgae is considered one of the best energy sources among renewable options, as it efficiently produces biofuel on a large scale. Pakistan has advantageous conditions for cultivating microalgae as a biofuel source, including abundant sunlight, favorable climate conditions, ample land and water resources. This research aims to identify suitable sites in Karachi for microalgae cultivation using geographic information systems. The potential sites were classified into four categories: highly suitable, moderately suitable, less suitable, and unfavorable. The study shows that Karachi provides an environment conducive to large-scale microalgae cultivation, which could help to alleviate energy shortages. Moreover, identifying viable cultivation locations can attract domestic and international interest, leading to future developments in the field.
