The Maldives faces significant challenges in transitioning to renewable energy, particularly due to its dependency on imported fossil fuels and limited space for renewable infrastructure. While the country has made strides in integrating solar power, it continues to explore alternative renewable sources like wind, ocean energy, and floating solar projects to diversify its energy portfolio. However, these efforts are hampered by a lack of human, financial, and technical resources.
