Abstract

The transition to renewable energy sources represents one of the most critical challenges facing developing nations in the 21st century. This article examines the complex interplay between national and international legal frameworks designed to promote renewable energy development, with particular emphasis on mechanisms supported or influenced by the United States. Through analysis of policy instruments, financial incentives, and regulatory structures, this study explores how legal mechanisms can effectively address the climate crisis while fostering energy security and sustainable development in emerging economies. The research reveals that successful renewable energy promotion requires a multi-layered approach combining international agreements, bilateral partnerships, domestic legislation, and innovative financing mechanisms.
