Abstract: Abstract Global climate change is having observable effects on the environment and for this reason is driving the promotion of renewable climate policies (RCPs). But no doubt this is a problem that will not be solved easily. For this reason, this paper aims to contribute an overview of RCPs through a bibliometric approach. In this analysis, Web of Science database is used interrogating specific keywords on a period of thirty years. Through the study of the literature, three main topic areas have been identified and, for each of them, a research question has been defined respectively. The direction of the research is to answer these three research questions so as to have an assessment concerning bibliographic expertise on the theme of RCPs. The study shows that the interest in RCPs has grown strongly over the years and that the leading countries in the field have been the USA and the People’s Republic of China, followed by Europe. This review can help the researchers and practitioners to understand the current state of development and also where research is missing. It can also support the identification of new lines of application and the development of better policy instruments towards climate goals.
