Over the last few years, electric energy demand in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) has increased many folds due to several factors including population, industrialization, economic activities, and urbanization. The main source power generation KSA is burning petroleum products. Almost one third greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are contributed from sector, mainly, by diesel natural gas. As a result, it makes necessary consider alternate forms electricity order cut down keep sustainable growth alive. government planned diversify sources suppliers. In recent renewable solar photovoltaic (PV), wind, concentrated (CSP), biomass, geothermal, tidal, been given more importance. ambitious Vision 2030 targets 58.7 GW will cause significant reduction GHG sector. This article systematically reviews impact on emissions. detailed breakdown emission discussed. Then, status investigated, focusing technical potentials. correlation then explained. most distinguishing feature this review that provides comprehensive list recommendations reduce discussions support decision makers, system planners, industry personnel, researchers, academics develop pathways for Kingdom.

Solar and wind energy sources hold significant potential to meet the escalating demand in Saudi Arabia sustainably. This research aims assess feasibility prospects of deploying solar photovoltaic (PV) systems (SA). The study adopts a comprehensive approach, encompassing spatial analysis land suitability, techno-economic studies, prediction renewable (RE) resource variability trends using machine learning techniques. Geographical Information System (GIS) is employed identify suitable areas for establishing PV farms based on multi-criteria evaluation methods. Techno-socioeconomic systems, under various configurations scenarios, conducted Advisor Model (SAM) tool. Furthermore, Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm developed deployed forecast Global Horizontal Irradiation (GHI), speed, influential weather parameters at different locations SA. projections these variables derived from global climate models are utilized analyze variabilities. suitability identified four optimal large-scale fields Tabuk, Al Madinah, Makkah, Riyadh provinces. Additionally, promising were found Riyadh, Eastern also one location Jouf province hybrid combining energy. assessment revealed that performed best overall, achieving capacity factor 42.6 % Madinah province. Although current tariffs render projects economically unviable, PV, energy, PV-wind technologies feasible SA Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) rates above $32.8/MWh, $26.1/MWh, $50.6/MWh, respectively. social development estimated job creation deployment scenarios 2020 2060, indicating more ambitious targets could translate millions jobs. SVM model predicted irradiance with an R-squared value 0.893. CMIP6 was then used project GHI 2049, suggesting increase approximately 19 %. Wind speed expected rise roughly 5 over same period. integration GIS analysis, modeling, learning-based forecasting provides insights into harnessing facilitates evidence-based planning risk assessment, crucial sustainable transition. roadmap this can inform policy frameworks, support United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs), attract private investments RE Consequently, establishes as viable solutions meeting SA's growing demands sustainably, while minimizing associated environmental impact.

As rapid urbanization becomes a key topic within urban studies and planning particularly in the Global South, it needs to be considered what radical implications environment mean. Reviewing literature on its from South sustainable development research environmental studies, this article discusses eight of urbanization-environmental conundrum: pollution, water resource degradation, heat island effect, sea level rise flooding, sprawl slum growth, agriculture decline, public health deterioration, wetland destruction that question ontology cities. Drawing cases Saudi Arabian cities, findings indicate agenda is skewed towards socio-economic with limited focus issues. This situation threatening sustainability rapidly urbanizing The paper proposes rhizomatic understanding importance as roadmap for transformative South. changes understandings should growing
