Summary, etc. <p>This research paper investigates the level of public understanding, attitude and social acceptance towards renewable energy (RE) in India. A concise analysis of the present status and future potential of renewable energy sources (RESs) is discussed. Furthermore, the role of renewables in achieving India’s sustainable development goals (SDGs) and Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) are also discussed. Various social aspects of the RESs are examined. In this regard, a question set is prepared and sent to the participants all across the country. A total of 1026 respondents from diverse backgrounds participated in this study. The results clearly reveal a massive understanding level of the participants regarding the RESs and their awareness about various problematic aspects related with fossil energy sources (FESs). The responses also demonstrate that mostly participants are in favor of the RESs projects in their locality and possess very positive attitude towards the RESs. Furthermore, the responses establish that majority of the participants are in favor of increasing the use of the RESs and energy self-sufficiency. Additionally, they want government should increase their interventions in addressing climatic problems.</p>
