Abstract: This study aims to determine the sustainability of renewable energy in utilising mangrove forests. Mangrove forests have great potential as a renewable energy source. In addition to functioning as a natural balancer and carbon store, mangrove forests can produce environmentally friendly electrical energy. This study uses a qualitative method to provide an overview of the development of scientific research on sustainable energy through mangrove utilisation. Data sources were obtained by accessing journals in the Scopus database from 2014 to 2024, with 398 articles. The data was then analysed with VOSviewer. The findings showed several dominant concept clusters: alternative energy, biomass, ecosystem function, environmental impact, and forest. Mangrove forests can provide benefits and have great potential as a renewable energy resource. Meanwhile, this research is limited because the articles used only come from Scopus. Future research needs a comparative analysis approach using the Web of Science (WoS) database.
