Abstract
The electric power sector directly depends on the development and economic growth of every country in the world. For developing and underdeveloped countries, the utility and demand for electric power are increasing yearly. To reduce carbon emission, global warming, and the harmful climate changes, renewable energy for electric power generation is needed. It reduces the need for fossil fuels for electric power generation. This chapter will briefly discuss the renewable energy role on electric power generation using novel renewable power generation techniques, its benefit to the environment and the grid, and its future prospects and challenges in the electrical power sector.
