Abstract: In the current context of growing dependence on sustainable energy sources, this study assesses the viability of using agricultural waste as a source of renewable energy in Chiclayo. It analyzes how by-products such as rice husks can contribute both economically and environmentally by pre-venting burning those releases greenhouse gases. The methodology included surveys of residents in the Chiclayo district, involved in agriculture and renewable energy management, using a quanti-tative approach to establish correlations between the use of agricultural waste and the production of renewable energy. The results showed that there is a significant positive correlation between the level of utilization of agricultural waste and the generation of renewable energy. It is concluded that agricultural waste represents an underutilized resource with significant potential to generate clean energy, promoting sustainability and reducing dependence on fossil fuels. The implementation of policies that support the conversion of this waste into energy is recommended, providing a regu-latory and financial framework that facilitates this transition.
