As global climate concerns escalate, higher education institutions are increasingly seen as pivotal in driving sustainability efforts. Green universities integrate environmental sustainability into education, research, operations, and community engagement, positioning themselves as critical players in mitigating climate change. This paper reviews green energy solutions and environmental protection measures in higher education, emphasizing the role of green universities in sustainable development. These institutions serve as research hubs for green technology and living labs promoting renewable energy, carbon reduction, and environmental stewardship. The study examines major global universities green initiatives, with case studies from Europe, North America, Asia, and Kazakhstan. Highlights include how Abai University and Fudan University integrate green technologies, foster sustainability research, and develop educational programs to support environmental protection. Furthermore, the review explores challenges and opportunities for universities in shaping local, national, and global green energy policies. Insights and recommendations for future innovations in green education and campus sustainability are provided.
