Solar energy potential for sustainable development in Afghanistan

<p>Afghanistan's energy generation deficiency relies heavily on fossil fuels and imported electricity. The<br>country is experiencing rapid population growth and advances in various sectors, which means that<br>current energy sources cannot cover the country's needs. At the same time, there is a massive gap<br>between electricity supply and demand, leading to a shortage of energy in Afghanistan. Therefore, it<br>is necessary to develop power generation, focusing on solar energy, to ensure energy sustainability.<br>This literature review looks at Afghanistan's potential for solar energy and identifies obstacles and<br>challenges like security, economics, and technology. This research focuses on PV power technology<br>and offers recommended solutions based on surveys conducted by national and international<br>organizations. Solar power could be a good solution for the energy shortage in Afghanistan. It is<br>theoretically, practically, and economically suitable for the country.</p>
