Abstract
This study examines world scientific production on renewable energy, sustainability and the environment on the basis of bibliometric indicators (scientific production, percentage variation of production, average cites per document, normalized impact, impact, etc.) for the period 2003–08. The analysis is made by country, by research institution, and by scientific journal, using the Scopus (Elsevier) database of scientific literature. The results show the total world production to have increased during the period studied, and that this topic has been attracting great scientific interest. Two groups of countries with high production are distinguished, one of which has a highly specialized subject focus. There are also three groups of institutions with a major production, two of which also have high impact.
