The usage of energy sources has progressed to the point that the entire planet is reliant on it. Fuels are the most important source of energy since they are the most abundant. During the last few decades, there has been a growing concern about depleting available resources for biofuel production. In light of the food crisis, algae is receiving the most attention as a source of biofuel. This article discusses the benefits and drawbacks of solar energy technologies. As a result of its quick development rate and potential to be filled in squander water or waste land, green growth is believed to be a decent wellspring of sustainable power a few organizations and government offices are endeavoring to bring down capital and operational expenses in order to make algae fuel processing economically viable. The position of algae as a potential replacement for fossil fuel as a perfect biofuel reactant is the subject of this review article. As a result, this paper examines the advances made in algae research and development as a renewable energy source since its inception. Starting with a comprehensive overview of algae, their forms, and the biomass generated by them. It is also attempted to illustrate the existing and potential problems associated with the production of algae. It also aims to emphasize the importance of algae in the future.
