This study aims to comprehensively analyze the status and prospects of renewable energies in India. India ranks third globally terms energy production. India’s population economic growth are fueling increasing demand. Renewable has emerged as a viable solution for addressing crisis environmental issues, replacing fossil fuels. The Indian government is actively promoting pursuing large-scale projects part its commitment increase utilization energies. paper analyzes complexities industry, focusing on substantial government’s proactive efforts promote greener mix. By 2023, sources constituted over 40% overall capacity, amounting approximately 169 GW. figure comprises 64 GW solar electricity, 52 hydropower, 42 wind energy, 11 biofuels. Rajasthan possesses greatest potential India, representing 20% nation’s capacity. article explores interdependent relationship between Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such poverty reduction, gender equality, improved health, preservation. research not only presents empirical data capabilities but also offers policy recommendations facilitate transition from fuels These address economic, social, aspects. outlines strategic plan sustainable future, emphasizing importance robust regulations, private sector investments, international collaboration, public awareness initiatives. contributes ongoing discussion adoption by providing practical framework. provides valuable insights policymakers, researchers, industry competitors regarding sustainability.

The Yangtze River Economic Belt, a key growth driver in China, faces energy-carbon challenges. Analyzing the impact of industrial restructuring on energy transition and emission reduction is crucial for its low-carbon transformation. This study first analyzed spatiotemporal patterns carbon emissions, intensity, structure decarbonization across YREB provinces from 2005 to 2021, then quantified impacts upgrading these dimensions by using spatial Durbin model with panel data, revealing heterogeneity mechanisms. Results show that: (1) U-shaped relationship exists between both intensity decarbonization, while it significantly lowers regional emissions; (2) analysis indicates effects intensify toward downstream regions, being pivotal mid-upstream mitigation. Accordingly, region-specific strategies are proposed: upstream areas should prioritize high-carbon substitution, ecological compensation, technological support; midstream regions adopt targeted policies green relocation efficiency enhancements accelerate upgrading; leverage innovation incentives service-driven restructuring. provides theoretical foundations tailored actionable insights achieving YREB’s development goals.
