Abstract
The demand for energy and associated services is increasing daily to keep pace with social and economic development as well as to improve people’s well-being and health by the usage of green energy. While the world is racing to secure the increasing energy needs through renewable energy, Syrians have increasingly turned to solar power to meet basic electricity needs due to the collapse of the national grid.
The trend towards benefiting from renewable energy sources began in Syria to escape the fuel scarcity that the Syrian state faced with the beginning of the war in 2011 as the economic sanctions on the Syrian government were set and many of the power stations were sabotaged.
Lack of fuel, electricity and the unbearable prices of gas because of the sanctions have led to new inventions and new ways to invest in regenerative energies sources in some ways to avoid living in a dark and cold world.
This article aims to show how in wartime conditions, the use of solar energy can reduce some of the challenges. And allow citizens to pursue a normal life. Also, the study highlights the challenges and opportunities of solar energy adoption in Homs, demonstrating its potential to improve living conditions in war-torn areas.
