Applications of Renewable Energy in Yemen

Abdulkareem Qasem Saleh Qasem

In recent years, Renewable Energy technologies have become the most important and promising sources of energy to meet the ever-increasing energy demands. Concerning Yemen, which is one of the least developed countries in the Middle East, it is depending mainly in the electricity production on fossil fuel. These resources have many challenges for the long-term use due to the high-priced costs, unsustainability, and environmental and climate changes. This research proposal will focus mainly on the application of four renewable energy resources namely wind, solar, biomass, and geothermal energy in Yemen. It will study and analyze the various aspects and challenges of these resources to meet our country high energy-demanding. It will reliably collect the data, study the areas which are suitable for renewable energy projects, and approximate the power potentials in GW in Yemen for the future implementations.
