In the quest for a sustainable future, hydrogen has emerged as a game-changer. As the most abundant element in the universe, hydrogen presents a vast source of clean fuel with immense potential. Governments, investors, and industry leaders worldwide are increasingly recognizing the role of hydrogen in decarbonization efforts. With over 1,000 hydrogen projects underway globally, and more than 350 announced in the past year alone, the momentum for green hydrogen is undeniable. This article explores the driving forces behind the green hydrogen revolution and the challenges that lie ahead.

Urban sustainability is becoming an increasingly critical concern as the world’s population continues to urbanize at an unprecedented rate. A large proportion of the world’s population is concentrated in urban centers and is projected to increase to 70% by 2030. At the same time, cities bear the greatest responsibility for the human footprint on the environment, being responsible for more than 70% of the carbon dioxide emitted into the environment and most of the waste. Furthermore, many cities are already facing problems in air quality, solid and liquid waste management, and infrastructure. These challenges must be addressed to ensure a high quality of life for their residents. This is where the concept of green cities, also known as sustainable cities, comes into play.

As the world strives to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels and combat climate change, wind turbines which convert wind energy into electricity play a key role in this direction for the transition to cleaner and more sustainable energy sources. Over the years, we have seen a large number of wind turbines installed on mount lands. However, the availability of suitable land for installing these turbines is becoming increasingly limited. Nowadays it is feasible to install wind turbines in bodies of water usually at sea to create offshore wind farms instead of onshore. Offshore wind farms have emerged as a promising solution in the renewable energy sector.

In the quest for a sustainable future, green architecture has emerged as a pivotal approach to reducing the environmental impact of buildings. At the forefront of this movement are photovoltaic (PV) systems, which harness the power of the sun to generate clean and renewable electricity. Integrating PV systems into green architecture not only offers numerous environmental benefits but also contributes to energy efficiency, resilience, and cost savings. This article explores the role of photovoltaic systems in green architecture, highlighting their significance, benefits, and the transformative potential they hold for sustainable building design.
