Correction Citation - Scopus: 1Understanding the Effects of Artificial Intelligence on Energy Transition: the Moderating Role of Paris Agreement(Elsevier, 2025-02) Chishti, Muhammad Zubair; Xia, Xiqiang; Dogan, EyupArticle Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 17Unravelling the Moderating Roles of Environmental Regulations on the Impact of Foreign Direct Investment on Environmental Sustainability(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, 2025-02) Ehigiamusoe, Kizito Uyi; Chen, Danqing; Dogan, Eyup; Binsaeed, Rima H.In the era of economic globalization, China attracts significant foreign direct investment (FDI) to accelerate economic prosperity. FDI inflows could have ramifications on environmental degradation (ED) despite the enactment of different environmental regulations (ERs) such as market-incentive, command-and-control as well as informal regulations. Though some studies have shown that FDI and ED have significant relationship, the moderating roles of different ERs on the environmental impact of FDI has not been empirically unraveled. This study fills this research gap by analyzing the direct impact of FDI on ED (i.e., carbon dioxide emissions, ecological footprint) using the provincial panel data. Second, it unravels the moderating roles of different ERs on the environmental impact of FDI in the provinces and regions. The results indicate that FDI directly mitigates ED, verifying the pollution halo hypothesis while ERs directly alleviate ED in China. However, the interaction between FDI and ERs do not alleviate ED in China albeit regional heterogeneity exist. The economic implication is that FDI is not a channel through which ERs enhance environmental sustainability in China. This study recommends some policy options arising from the findings.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 4Towards Global Sustainable Development: The Role of Financial Innovation and Technological Advancements(Sage Publications Ltd, 2024-08-10) Dogan, Eyup; Chishti, Muhammad Zubair; Zaman, Umer; Binsaeed, Rima H.The importance of metaverse and blockchain technologies in today's global landscape cannot be overstated. These innovative technologies offer transformative potential for various sectors, including economics, by enhancing connectivity, security and transparency. The present study leverages these technologies to investigate their dynamic impacts, in conjunction with geopolitical risk, on global economic cycles to navigate the challenges of an interconnected world. To ensure the reliability of our findings, this study employs two proxies to gauge economic cycles: global green economic growth and global environmental sustainability. By utilizing daily data, this study reveals several noteworthy findings. First, the quantile-var-based network analysis demonstrates a robust directional connection among the variables in our model. Second, the wavelet quantile correlation technique uncovers the significant role of metaverse technology in influencing economic cycles by promoting global green economic growth and global environmental sustainability across all time horizons (short, medium and long term). Third, economic cycles exhibit a negative association with financial innovation and a positive connection with geopolitical risk across all timeframes. Fourth, the continuous wavelet transform causality test identifies a substantial causal relationship running from metaverse technology, financial innovation and geopolitical risk to economic cycles. Based on our empirical results, this study recommends that the global economy should continue investing in metaverse and blockchain technologies to address economic cycles in the future.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 15The Role of Energy Efficiency, Renewable Resources, Green Innovation, and Fiscal Decentralization in Sustainable Development: Evidence From OECD Countries(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025-08) Binsaeed, Rima H.; Khan, Zeeshan; Dogan, Eyup; Rahim, SyedEnergy efficiency and renewable resources for sustainable development are novel discussion areas for academics and researchers. Similarly, most developed and emerging countries are experiencing fiscal decentralization to enhance regional development. However, the importance of these sectors in sustainable development is still unclear in the literature. This research investigates the influence of energy efficiency, renewable energy, green innovation, and fiscal decentralization on sustainable development. Using the data for 18 fiscally decentralized OECD countries from 1995 to 2020, the roles of linear and nonlinear green innovation and renewable energy are also considered. This study uses novel moment quantile regression and finds that revenue decentralization, expenditure decentralization, and fiscal decentralization are significant drivers of sustainable development. Additionally, energy efficiency and value-added manufacturing significantly enhance sustainability in the region. However, green innovation and renewables are resources that exhibit a U-shaped association with sustainable development. The robustness of these results is validated via a series of parametric and nonparametric approaches. From the policy perspective, this research suggests improved research and development on renewable energy, green innovation, and energy efficiency could significantly encourage the OECD's journey towards sustainable development. Additionally, subnational governments should be given more fiscal autonomy, which may encourage regional level investments and boost the confidence of clean energy producing sectors to accelerate sustainable regional development.Article Citation - WoS: 69Citation - Scopus: 74The Nexus Between Global Carbon and Renewable Energy Sources: A Step Towards Sustainability(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023-09) Dogan, Eyup; Luni, Tania; Majeed, Muhammad Tariq; Tzeremes, PanayiotisThe energy transition is at the core of sustainable development as it helps to combat global warming and climate change. Similarly, carbon markets also support the climate change mitigation. Therefore, by realizing the potential role of clean energy and carbon markets in ensuring environmental sustainability, this study analyzes the spillovers and connectedness between the environment (global carbon) and renewable energy sources (wind, solar, geothermal, biofuel, and fuel cell). The empirical analysis is conducted by applying the novel "TVP-VAR" connectedness framework of Balcilar et al. (2021) on the daily data over the period from August 1, 2014, to February 4, 2022. The findings show that solar and biofuel appear as the highest net shock transmitter among alternative renewable sources while global carbon is shown as the net receiver of shocks. The largest transmission of shocks to global carbon is observed from wind followed by solar. Although these findings support the connectedness between renewable energy and the environment, however this connectedness is influenced by economic crises such as the oil crisis and pandemic crisis. During COVID-19, the fuel cell was the highest transmitter of shocks. The results are important for policy formulation, investment, and portfolio management as they provide insights into the interconnectedness and help in boosting climate actions.Correction Race and Energy Poverty: Evidence From African-American Households(Elsevier, 2025-08) Dogan, Eyup; Madaleno, Mara; Inglesi-Lotz, Roula; Taskin, DilvinArticle Citation - WoS: 32Citation - Scopus: 36Influence Mechanism of Electricity Price Distortion on Industrial Green Transformation: A Spatial Analysis of Chinese Regions(Elsevier, 2024-02) Razzaq, Asif; Sharif, Arshian; Yang, Xiaodong; Dogan, EyupElectricity price distortion (DIS) can significantly affect industrial green transformation (IGT), influencing the pace and direction of sustainable economic growth. Understanding this link is essential for crafting effective green energy policies. Initially, this study evaluates the direct and heterogeneous effects of DIS on IGT and then investigates the indirect influence channels using a sample of 30 Chinese provincial-level administrative regions from 2006 to 2019. Spatial analysis techniques (standard deviation ellipse and geographically and temporally weighted regression methods) are applied to explore the spatial and temporal dependence and non-stationary association between DIS and IGT. The outcomes suggest that DIS significantly reduces IGT in the eastern region through R&D input intensity and energy mix, while insignificant in the central and western regions. The adverse effect of DIS is more substantial at higher quantiles of IGT. The individual spatial heterogeneity characteristics reveal that the gravity centre of IGT is located in the southeast of the geometric centre of China, displays a southwest-northeast-southeast directional migration, and distributed at the junction of Henan and Hubei. Manifestly, the ellipse and azimuth of IGT vary significantly between 0.862 degrees -32.854 degrees. The IGT level steadily progresses from discrete to concentrated, reflected by the ellipse's long and short semi-axes. These regions are mainly concentrated in the eastern and northwestern areas, with the most significant inhibitory effects in Fujian, Anhui, Shaanxi, Zhejiang, and Yunnan. These findings offer valuable policy implications.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Impact of Climate Change on Economic Growth in Developing Countries: Unravelling the Moderating Role of Globalization(Springer, 2024-11-27) Ehigiamusoe, Kizito Uyi; Lean, Hooi Hooi; Dogan, Eyup; Binsaeed, Rima H.; Ramakrishnan, SureshThough some empirical works have shown the determinants of economic growth, the research work on the impact of climate change (proxied by carbon emissions and ecological footprint) on economic growth is still scanty especially in developing countries. The attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG-8 and SDG-13) requires a comprehensive analysis of the nexus between climate change and economic growth. Therefore, this study fills the literature gap by investigating the impact of climate change on economic growth in Malaysia (a country that obtains most of her energy from fossil fuels) and Nigeria (a country that obtains most of her energy from renewable resources) during the 1980-2021 period. Given the intricate relationship among climate change, economic growth and globalization, this study also determines the moderating role of globalization (and its dimensions) on the impact of climate change on economic growth. It employs the Autoregressive Distributed Lag approach to estimate the parameters. The linear model shows that climate change has a negative impact on economic growth in Malaysia and Nigeria albeit the magnitude is larger in Malaysia. The interaction model indicates that globalization and some of its dimensions favorably moderate the detrimental impact of carbon emissions on economic growth but cannot moderate the impact of ecological footprint on economic growth in Malaysia and Nigeria. The marginal effect of carbon emissions on economic growth varies with the level of globalization. This study highlights the implications of the findings and proposes some policy options.Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 21How Does Technological Innovation Moderate the Environmental Impacts of Economic Growth, Natural Resource Rents and Trade Openness(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, 2024-12) Ehigiamusoe, Kizito Uyi; Dogan, Eyup; Ramakrishnan, Suresh; Binsaeed, Rima H.The objective of this study is to unravel the linear impacts of economic growth, technological innovation, natural resource rents and trade openness on carbon emissions in Malaysia during 1980-2021. It also unveils the moderating role of technological innovation on the impacts of economic growth, natural resource rents and trade openness on carbon emissions. It further analyses the nonlinear relationship between technological innovation and carbon emissions. It estimates the parameters with the Autoregressive Distributed Lag model technique. The results of the linear model reveal that economic growth, natural resource rents and trade openness contributes to carbon emissions while technological innovation mitigates carbon emissions. The disaggregated analysis of natural resource rents indicates that oil rents, natural gas rents and coal rents intensify carbon emissions while mineral rents and forest rents do not contribute to carbon emissions. The disaggregated analysis of trade openness shows that exports worsen carbon emissions while imports have tenuous effect. The disaggregated analysis of technological innovation indicates that innovation by non-residents mitigate carbon emissions while innovation by residents do not alleviate carbon emissions. Moreover, evidence from the interaction model reveals that technological innovation can favourably mitigate the adverse impacts of economic growth and trade openness on carbon emissions albeit it cannot alleviate the impact of natural resource rents on carbon emissions. Besides, the nonlinear model indicates a U-shaped relationship between technological innovation and carbon emissions. Unlike previous studies that typically focused on the direct impacts of these variables, this study unravels the impacts of the disaggregated components as well as provides insights into the moderating and nonlinear effects of technological innovation on carbon emissions. The implication of this study is that efforts to achieve a carbon-neutral economy should consider the direct and indirect impacts of economic growth, technological innovation, natural resource rents and trade openness. It is recommended for Malaysia to encourage technological innovation in her quest to abate the adverse environmental impacts of economic activities.Article Citation - WoS: 51Citation - Scopus: 65Green Environment in the EU Countries: The Role of Financial Inclusion, Natural Resources and Energy Intensity(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2023-05) Hodzic, Sabina; Sikic, Tanja Fatur; Dogan, EyupThe European Union pursues the European Green Deal strategy as well as Sustainable Development Goals, the main target of which is to become a carbon-neutral continent by 2050. Hence, a lot of environmental challenges need to be solved. Possible determinants in mitigating environmental challenges are financial inclusion, natural resources and interaction with a green environment. This concept implies preserving natural resources and a clean environment for future generations. However, there is still no clear evidence in the literature on how natural resources and financial inclusion interact with the green environment in the EU. Therefore, this paper aims at filling this gap. In order to obtain empirical results, the quantile regression econometric technique proposed by Koenker has been applied. The analyzed period was from 2004 to 2019 for EU-26 countries. The results show that higher energy intensity is the main cause of environmental degradation. However, financial inclusion in higher quantiles and natural resources rent lead to a reduction in carbon emissions. Our results also confirm that the EU has succeeded in decoupling economic growth from pollution. The robustness of the results was checked using a Powell's quantile regression, which confirmed the relationship between a green environ-ment and the variables analyzed. Thus, the results suggest that financial inclusion needs to be more integrated into energy and climate policies, especially in the early stages of development. In addition, large-scale green investments are needed in EU countries to further reduce energy intensity and create an effective green environment.
