Journal Name: Discover Engineering
Abstract
The global transition to a carbon-neutral future requires transformative innovations in renewable energy engineering. Solar and wind power remain the most promising renewable technologies, yet their variability necessitates advanced storage systems for reliability. Recent advances in photovoltaic materials, wind turbine design, and energy storage technologies—particularly in batteries and hydrogen systems—are reshaping the energy landscape. This paper explores engineering breakthroughs in solar, wind, and storage systems, analyzing their role in achieving carbon neutrality. Challenges such as intermittency, grid integration, and environmental sustainability are discussed alongside strategies for large-scale deployment. Ultimately, renewable energy engineering provides the technological foundation for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, enhancing energy security, and ensuring a sustainable global future.
