| Fossil fuels are recognized as one of the most serious environmental challenges due to their harmful impacts on groundwater, surface waters, and soil. Population growth and increasing consumption have led to a continuous rise in waste generation, intensifying pollution within water, soil, and plant cycles, ultimately threatening human, plant, and animal health. Renewable energy sources, as clean alternatives, can play a significant role in reducing environmental pollution. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the literature on the role of renewable energy in reducing water and soil pollution. A structured search was conducted across Scopus, Web of Science, SID, and Google Scholar for articles published between 2010 and 2025 in English or Persian. After screening based on inclusion criteria (thematic relevance, acceptable quality, and sufficient data), 156 articles were included. The review analyzes the advantages, limitations, and challenges of clean energy technologies, particularly solar energy, geothermal energy, biochar, and biogas, in reducing water and soil contaminants. Findings indicate that solar-driven water treatment and biochar application can reduce organic pollutants and heavy metal adsorption by 30–55%, while geothermal systems achieve 65–75% lower CO₂ emissions compared to coal-fired power plants, which indirectly reduces soil and water pollution by eliminating coal mining wastewater and thermal discharge. Finally, recommendations are proposed to guide future research and environmental policymaking. | ||
