Renewable Energy Adoption in Coastal Regions

Coastal regions are among the most vulnerable to climate change, yet they hold significant potential for renewable energy development. This project examines the technical, economic, social, and policy dimensions of renewable energy adoption in coastal communities, with a focus on solar, wind, and hybrid solutions. Through interdisciplinary research, stakeholder engagement, and field studies, the project aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how renewable energy can enhance energy security, support local livelihoods, and build climate resilience in coastal areas.
