Main Article Content
Abstract
This study employs a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), and the article selection process follows the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) framework to analyze energy technologies and approaches for reducing greenhouse gas emissions toward Carbon Neutrality. Research articles were collected from the ScienceDirect, Springer Nature, and Gale OneFile databases, covering the period from 2023 to 2025, based on systematically defined inclusion and exclusion criteria. A total of 4,704 articles were initially identified, including 596 from ScienceDirect, 2,643 from Springer Nature and 1,465 from Gale OneFile. These articles were screened based on titles and abstracts, followed by a full-text assessment according to the established criteria, resulting in 42 articles selected for in-depth analysis. The findings indicate that the key approaches can be categorized into four main groups (1) Policy Measures and Carbon Market mechanisms, (2) Smart Grid systems and Virtual Power Plants (VPP), (3) Renewable Energy integration; and (4) Waste Management and the Circular Economy. Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency Improvements show high potential in the short term, whereas advanced technologies such as Hydrogen and Carbon Capture are more suitable for long-term development. This study proposes policy recommendations and energy system development pathways tailored to the Thai context to support the achievement of Carbon Neutrality by 2050 and Net Zero Emissions by the year 2065.
