As the global population grows and socio-economic development
advances, the need for electricity continues to increase. However, the
widespread use of fossil fuels for electricity generation has been reviewed to
contribute 75% of the environmental pollution and presents a significant threat
to the environment due to carbon dioxide emissions, exacerbating global
warming. This paper explores various methods of electricity generation,
encompassing non-renewable and renewable sources. It underscores the pressing
need for increased research and investment in technologies to enhance the
operational efficiency of renewable energy sources. By prioritising renewable
energy development, especially in regions like Nigeria, where the full impact
of global warming is not yet felt, we can achieve sustainable electricity
generation, ensuring a cleaner and more secure energy future.
