“…The increased focus of both scientists and public institutions on the energy transition in these countries is generated by their high level of economic development and the existence of abundant financial resources. The screening of the international scientific literature demonstrates the existence of numerous papers focused on single-country case studies or comparative approaches by using quantitative and qualitative tools [61][62][63][64][65]. Lately, an increasing interest in Global South countries spurred a new wave of research from these regions [66][67][68][69].…”

As civilization and technology have developed, there have been multiple energy transitions that have pushed various resources like coal, wood, oil, and gas to the forefront of the energy mix. Due to a variety of geopolitical initiatives, there have been progressively more restrictions on the energy sector in recent years. One of the main concerns of researchers is the widespread use of renewable energy and the replacement of fossil resources. The utilization of non-renewable energy sources results in a detrimental increase in greenhouse gas emissions. One of the most crucial strategies for lowering energy consumption and enhancing the energy system’s sustainability is to increase energy efficiency. Numerous studies note that energy transition has become necessary in the modern day. Using the analysis of the main components as an extraction method, hierarchical cluster analysis, this study focuses on the situation of the states of the European Union in their race for energy transition, taking into account the main challenges generated by geopolitical tensions and the energy poverty spectrum for the population. The conclusions of the study call for a reconfiguration of the energy mix based on renewable energy. Increasing the share of renewable energy is a goal pursued by EU countries, but energy policies must be considered in a broader context that includes the social aspects of the energy transition. So, just transition is a new concept that reshapes the actions of public authorities on the path to a low-carbon economy. Just transition is a necessity that puts the consumer at the center of attention so that the negative externalities generated by the move away from fossil fuels are minimized in terms of social impact.

“…A comparative analysis of other regions indicated that creative funding and global collaboration could overcome these obstacles and advance Mozambique's renewable energy economy. The need to provide energy security and reduce environmental effects is what ignites interest in renewable energy sources (Morina, Balomenou, & U. Ergün, 2021;Voyko, 2020). The energy industry of Mozambique is vital to the country's economy since it supplies necessary inputs for all economic activities.…”

Structural equation modelling analysis was performed to identify various variables that influence the growth of Renewable Energy Production (REG) in Mozambique. The study revealed that the government's policies regarding renewable energy generation in Mozambique are of moderate quality. However, by implementing skillfully crafted policies and plans, there is a possibility for additional progress and growth. The progress of renewable energy initiatives in Mozambique is significantly influenced by the investment climate for such projects. Although the government has established a favourable environment for investors, it primarily caters to foreign investors rather than local and private investors. Environmental considerations significantly influence the growth of renewable energy generation (REG) in Mozambique. This study highlighted the need to consider environmental issues throughout the planning and execution of REG projects. The lack of technical and managerial proficiency in a particular area can be resolved by importing foreign specialists, either on a temporary or permanent basis. Concurrent with the global goal of shifting to clean energy-producing technologies, this study attempts to identify and assess the variables that influence the growth and development of renewable energy businesses in Mozambique. Setting priorities for energy efficiency can uncover several economic prospects, fostering the growth of a market for innovative solutions and facilitating the construction of specialized firms in this field. Consequently, this will entice investment from both domestic business owners and investors from other countries.
