As the inconsistency between human advancement and natural upkeep is progressively prominent, sustainability has become an altogether critical objective for future improvement. In a country like Nepal in the Southern Hemisphere, it can be speculated that if renewable energy can be used and used in sports infrastructure, it can lead to sustainability in development. This paper investigates the awareness and perception of players on the use of renewable energy in sports, energy consumption of stadiums and factors influencing, existing situations of sports events and activities, key sustainability initiatives that are currently being implemented in the sports sector of Nepal and key challenges for implementing the renewable resources in sport. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were used for this research. Data is analyzed through subjective strategies, geographical, theme, and contents basis to distinguish topics to the current status of the use of renewable energy for the sustainability of sports. The analysis of results provides valuable insight into the determinants of sports player’s attitudes towards the implementation of renewable energy sources. This valuation research reveals that the vast majority of the respondents knew renewable energy is an energy derived from natural source which is right and few responded wrong. Many key informants also are unaware of the RE on sports. It is obvious that there is a great need for raising awareness of all sports players, leaders, officials and policy makers by continuous and focused campaigns regarding the use of RE on sports. It was found that the perception of people in rural area was different from urban area regarding RE. So, the supportive policies and favorable investment frameworks for RE is necessary in order to achieve the market dispersion required for fulfilling the demand of energy requirements and sustainability targets. Therefore, this study is expected to be useful in spreading understanding among general people about the application of renewable energy by obtaining data of sports player knowledge and perceptions which might influence the general people. 2024-06-05T02:23:55Z 2024-06-05T02:23:55Z 2023 Thesis http://kb.psu.ac.th/psukb/handle/2016/19435 en Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Thailand http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/th/ application/pdf Prince of Songkla University
