The Global South comprising economically disadvantaged regions of the world face various challenges such as limited access to electricity, clean water, industrialization, and food security. Solar energy, a sustainable abundant resource, holds great potential address these challenges. Despite its immense potential, encounters hurdles related technology adoption, infrastructure, financial constraints. This review examines history, classifications, global statistics, merits, demerits solar in South. Furthermore, it delves into applications including extreme environments, residential electricity generation, transportation, industrial usage this region. paper concludes by providing new insighths highlighting significant role energy can play shaping future if are adequately addressed, opportunities embraced.

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the United Nations create global awareness, political responsibility, enhanced measurements, and social feedback organizing these priorities into seventeen goals defining measurable time-bound targets. SDG7, "Affordable Clean Energy," aims to ensure access affordable, reliable, sustainable, modern energy for all. Therefore, renewable is crucial achieving SDGs providing clean, affordable solutions. This study identify scientific production its evolution related concentrated solar power (CSP) provide an overview of system hybridization towards accessing their role in SDGs. analyzes recent publications on hybrid CSP over past decade using bibliometric analysis. findings reveal that systems directly indirectly contribute For example, 7 Affordable Energy, 8 Decent Work Economic Growth, 9 Industry, Innovation Infrastructure, 11 Cities Communities, 12 Responsible Consumption Production. In contrast, cooling applications are connected 1, No Poverty, 3, Good Health Wellbeing. also highlights increasing trend CSP, with year 2020 marking highest point. China has number followed USA, Italy, UK, Spain, France. potential benefits sustainable development emphasizes need fully address challenges implementing systems.

This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of 19,235 publications on Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) from 2015 to 2023, underlining its critical role in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Focusing SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) 3 (Good Health Well-being), research highlights WPT's significant contributions sustainability across economic, environmental, social realms. Utilizing Biblioshiny VOSviewer, we extract visualize key insights into recent progress, technological applications, top keywords, publication trends, geographical distribution, thematic clusters. Our findings indicate strong emphasis sustainable energy solutions, with 1589 directly related 7. WPT also supports 9 (Industry, Innovation, Infrastructure) 56 11 (Sustainable Cities Communities) 171 publications, contributing resilient infrastructure urban development. Moreover, uncovers potential environmental conservation, notable attention 14 (Life Below Water) 15 Land). The synergy Artificial Intelligence (AI) is emphasized for enhancing efficiency broad application areas such as affordable energy, agricultural yields, health standards, digital education, water purification. Despite challenges like financial constraints, technical hurdles, concerns, paper suggests innovative solutions through funding, research, assessments, collaborative policymaking. Highlighting promise state-of-the-art techniques, this advocates democratizing technology access marginalized regions, presenting pivotal tool sustainable, equitable future aligned SDGs.

The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) serve as a comprehensive framework guiding humanity's response to various pressing challenges. Using fossil fuels presents significant environmental challenge due the release of greenhouse gas emissions. Renewable energy satisfies expanding demands and mitigates climate change. Moreover, solar has potential on global scale for production. Solar PV technology, from utility-scale megaprojects modest residential installations, is becoming more affordable investment-worthy worldwide while providing customers with higher efficiency per watt. Due absence comparative study largest power plants, studies are subject set inputs impact these plants contributions in relation SDGs. present two main objectives, i.e., comparison globally an analysis contribution also explores alignment SDG 7, emphasizing clean access. powerful driver achieving 13, significantly reducing emissions diminishing reliance fuels. Beyond impacts, contribute economic growth, innovation, job creation, aligning 8. This research would provide valuable insights into social, economic, dimensions plants.
