In Short : Only 6% of the enormous potential for sustainable energy in Himalayan countries is now being tapped, according to a report from the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD). The area still relies largely on fossil fuels even though there are plenty of hydropower, solar, and wind resources available.
Encouraging Innovation and Strategic Growth
If this unrealized potential is realized, the Himalayan region may become a center for renewable energy, spurring innovation in community-based clean energy solutions, green hydropower projects, and cross-border energy trading. investment in cutting-edge technologies and infrastructure.
Impact and Significance of Clean Energy
In the environmentally vulnerable Himalayan region, increasing the use of renewable energy will improve energy security, rural electrification, and climate resilience in addition to lowering carbon emissions. Making use of these resources can greatly advance international sustainability objectives.
