Description
Summary:The study of energy sources, particularly renewable and non-renewable energy, is crucial in addressing global energy challenges and promoting a sustainable future. This paper provides an in-depth analysis of renewable and non-renewable energy sources, exploring their characteristics, advantages, disadvantages, and significance in meeting the world's energy demand. Renewable energy sources offer a promising solution to the global energy crisis and environmental impacts, while non-renewable sources play a significant role in meeting current energy needs. However, their finite nature necessitates the exploration of sustainable alternatives. The research focuses on public awareness of solar energy in residential areas in Kota Bharu, Kelantan, with the aim of identifying the level of knowledge and challenges related to solar energy. The findings reveal that while many residents are aware of solar energy, they lack a comprehensive understanding of its intricacies and benefits. Recommendations include conducting a comprehensive educational campaign, emphasizing environmental and economic advantages, providing long-term support, and exploring further research opportunities.
