Sustainable development is the benefit that meet the needs of the people without compromising access to affordability, reliability, sustainability and modern quality of human satisfaction of its citizens within the limitation of the environment. It has become widely recognized that the rising environmental hazards, depletion threatened the unreliable supply of electricity with huge economic cost associated with fossil fuel has made renewable energy issue a significant sustainability resource as the basic requirements for development in developing countries. This paper aims to present review and promote access to harnessing, harvesting, storage, conversion and technology of renewable energy sources for generating electricity in developing nations by 2050.  In this review, we have identified the various renewable energy sources, challenges and benefits. The recommendation on this investigation shows greatly our contributions to the aspiration of citizens in developing countries for alleviating struggles to overcome the epileptic power supply that has harassed the economy of the nation in jeopardy for long time.
