According to the recent revision of Greek National Energy and Climate Plan, country sets out accomplish an ambitious target concerning integration renewables in local electricity mix during ongoing decade, at levels 80% by 2030. This implies need more than double existing wind PV capacity national level, which turn introduces numerous challenges. Amongst them, spatial planning for new RES installations seems be most demanding, with adoption novel technological solutions field potentially holding a key role. New technologies, like offshore floating solar, are gradually gaining maturity may offer such alternative, challenged same time however entail minimum disruption ecosystems. To that end, we currently assess theoretical potential PVs lentic water systems mainland. We do so looking into 53 different across territory meet constraint 1 km2 surface area, proceed estimation relevant per system under application minimal intervention approach, assuming coverage 1% over total area. In this context, our findings indicate maximum, aggregate could exceed 2 GWp respective annual energy yield reaching approximately 4 TWh or, equivalently, >6% country’s anticipated consumption Finally, results extend further, offering regional level analysis set policy directions considerations on development solar Greece, while also designating merits against similar, land-based installations.

Abstract This article evaluates the present global condition of solar and wind energy adoption explores their benefits limitations in meeting needs. It examines historical evolutionary growth energy, trends usage renewable upcoming technologies, including floating vertical‐axis turbines. The importance smart grid technology storage alternatives for enhancing effectiveness dependability is explored. In addition, role Electric Vehicles (EVs) a modern has been assessed. Furthermore, economic benefits, most recent technological developments environmental social ramifications. potential to meet increasing demand problems opportunities facing industry have shown excellent promise. Machine learning applications generation are vital sustainable production. can help design, optimization, cost reduction, and, importantly, improving efficacy advancing storage. assessment crucial resource policymakers, leaders, researchers who aim make world cleaner more sustainable. Ultimately, this review great demands goals.

The challenge of managing aquatic connectivity in a changing climate is exacerbated the presence additional anthropogenic stressors, social factors, and economic drivers. Here we discuss these issues context structural functional for biodiversity, specifically fish, both freshwater marine realms. We posit that adaptive management strategies consider shifting baselines socio-ecological implications change will be required to achieve objectives. role renewable energy expansion, particularly hydropower, critically examined its impact on connectivity. advocate strategic spatial planning incorporates nature-positive solutions, ensuring mitigation efforts are harmonized with biodiversity conservation. underscore urgency integrating robust scientific modelling stakeholder values define clear, Finally, call innovative monitoring predictive decision-making tools navigate uncertainties inherent climate, goal resilience sustainability ecosystems.
