Gamini Sahu
Abstract
This chapter explores the current state, future prospects, and the integration of 3D printing technologies within the realm of renewable energy resources. It discusses the global adoption of renewable energy, highlighting the transition from traditional sources to more sustainable options such as solar, wind, and hydroenergy. The introduction of 3D printing in energy device manufacturing offers unprecedented opportunities for customization, efficiency, and sustainability. However, challenges related to scalability, materials science, and economic viability remain. The chapter synthesizes recent research, providing insights into how 3D printing could revolutionize the energy sector, potentially leading to more localized and efficient energy solutions.
