Abstract. This study explores the role of renewable energy sources as strategic instruments for mitigating the effects of climate change in the Caucasus Mountains region. Employing a multidisciplinary approach, the research combines statistical analysis, GIS mapping, and environmental monitoring data to assess the performance of solar, wind, and hydropower systems in reducing carbon emissions. Data were collected from field measurements conducted by the research team, meteorological station records, global wind and solar atlases, NASA Power data, and Solargis data. The findings indicate that, despite the challenges posed by rugged terrain and infrastructural limitations, the region exhibits substantial renewable energy potential, with extensive areas suitable for power plant development. Optimal deployment of these technologies enhances regional energy security and generates significant socioeconomic benefits, including job creation, improved energy accessibility, and reduced operational costs. Ultimately, this study underscores the pivotal role of renewable energy in fostering environmental resilience and promoting sustainable development in Azerbaijan.
