Abstract

Due to the growing energy shortage and rising global temperatures, sustainable development has become more of a necessity than ever before. While renewable energy, sustainable energy resources, and a focus on low carbon emissions in the power system all contribute to sustainable development, these concepts must be coordinated if they are to have a lasting impact. These complications present a new set of challenges in the process of integrating renewables to the existing grid structure, including intermittency, system utilization efficiency, and others. The rest of this chapter deals with the topic of sustainable development and explores the various options for shifting power generation from traditional fossil fuel-powered sources to renewable energy. As renewable energy is employed, additional clean energy such as solar energy, wind energy, and photovoltaic systems will be added to the existing grid. There is another benefit to the net metering program.

Introduction And Background

To comprehend the connection between smart city concepts and environmental sustainability, analyses scientific research that are both focused on these topics. This chapter provides a thorough survey of the literature on smart governance, which is defined as the use of technology to enable local governments and citizens to work together to achieve sustainable development. In today's data-rich economy, it helps with policy creation and city planning. relating to smart sustainable cities, sustainable development, and sustainability. The difficulties that must be resolved in order to advance towards future cities and sustainable potential for smart cities. At this rate, the overall greenhouse gas emissions and fuel costs will climb rapidly, necessitating rapid efforts to adopt renewable energy such as natural gas or electricity. While renewable energy has numerous advantages, there are also significant drawbacks, such as the lack of continuous supply, and as such, must be designed, planned, and controlled to achieve continuity.
