A clean and renewable energy source would benefit the economy and the environment in many ways but would not solve all of the problems. 

The use of catalysts for exploiting renewable energy sources, producing clean fuels in refineries, and minimizing the by-product formation in industry also fall within the definition of environmental catalysis. In the future, the continuous effort to control transport emissions, improve indoor ah quality, and decontaminate polluted water and soil will further boost catalytic technology. All in all, catalysts will continue to be a valuable asset in the effort to protect human health, the natural environment, and the existence of life on Earth. 

The main direction of our International Ecoenergy Academy s (IEA) activity is environment protection and replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy technologies. 

Hydrogen is clean and renewable energy source. It can promote a healthy environment by eliminating harmful pollutants. 

The renewable energy processes will be monitored and controlled by small, fast, and economical detectors, and fiber optics will play a major role in their designs. The operation and applications of fiber-optic probes have already been discussed in connection with Figure 3.2, so only a brief summary is provided here. Fiber-optic probes can be installed in situ, whereas their readout instruments can be several hundred meters from the probe. The probe can be located in toxic, corrosive, radioactive, explosive, high- or low-temperature/ pressure, and noisy environments. Because the measurement signal is optical, the cables are immune to microwave or electromagnetic interference.
