| Abstract | ||||
| The concept of sustainability has gained significant attention worldwide, with a focus on finding solutions to environmental, social, and economic challenges. In the context of Egypt2030, this paper explores the importance of green energy applica-tions in promoting sustainable development within Green Communities. These communities are designed to incorporate strategies that prioritize green buildings, integrated water systems, pedestrian-friendly design, urban forestry, and waste management practices. The study emphasizes the significance of proper planning at the neighborhood level to ensure the long-term viability and reduced environmental impact of sustainable communities. It highlights key factors such as population density, alternative transportation systems, community agriculture programs, water reuse strategies, and green building techniques, all of which contribute to achieving sustainable development goals. Renewable energy plays a crucial role in the development of green communities. The paper emphasizes the integration of renewable energy sources and the proper selection of alternative fuels and electric vehicles to minimize greenhouse gas emissions, combat climate change, and reduce air pollution. Furthermore, it un-derscores the importance of selecting appropriate energy storage methods to create a balanced, emissions-free, and sustainable community. In conclusion, this manuscript underscores the significance of incorporating green energy applications into the planning and development of Green Communities in Egypt2030. By prioritizing renewable energy, sustainable neighborhood design, and efficient energy storage, these communities can contribute to a greener and more sustainable future. | ||||
