T

he aims of presentation consist of green energy,

global poverty and hunger were study in order

to find out the most cheapest and economical

sources of green energy for poverty alleviation in

South Asia like Pakistan. Green energy is also called

renewable energy or sustainable energy, comes

from natural sources like wind, water, sunlight,

rains, tides, plants, algae and geothermal heat.

South Asia comprises the countries of Pakistan,

Bangladesh, India, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, and

Sri-Lanka. South Asia is about one fifth of the

world’s population, which is considered as the

most densely populated region in the world. As per

study, the resources in South Asia are limited and

the population increases from time to time. The

second problem in South Asia is the concentration

of non-renewable energy, which are very costly

although a great potential of green energy like

biomass, biofuels, hydropower, solar, landfill gas,

wind and geothermal are available in difference

countries of the world like South Asia. Similarly

many countries in the world are striving to utilize

green energy in an efficient way to replace the cost

of furnace oil, gas and other costly fuel used for

non-renewable energy. The study further showed

that about 1.4 billion peoples are lack of electricity

in the world population of 7 billion and nearly

one billion peoples go to bed hungry each night

particularly in the developing countries like South

Asia, as per report recorded by the World Bank. It

was concluded from the study that green energy

should be commercialized to reduced energy

crises, increase income, employment, create

more jobs, stranger economy as well as to reduce

poverty in South Asia like Pakistan.
