Summary:This study delves into the complex world of sustainable energy development, seeking to distil the essence of this multifaceted concept. We uncover the key aspects and activities that underpin sustainable energy development through a meticulous and systematic review of existing literature. Our research journey begins with analysing publication trends and tracing the chronological trajectory of scholarly output on sustainable energy development. We identify the most influential articles in the field based on citation frequency and map the global research landscape, pinpointing the top contributing countries. Next, we explore the dominant subject areas and disciplines intertwined with sustainable energy development and provide a comprehensive overview of the diverse definitions and interpretations surrounding this concept. Our study highlights the pivotal activities and initiatives driving sustainable energy development. Ultimately, our research reveals that achieving sustainable energy development hinges on three critical actions: transitioning to renewable energy sources, boosting energy efficiency, and mitigating greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions. Notably, our findings underscore the need for a unified definition of sustainable energy development, highlighting the need for further research and clarity in this field.
