    The 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, Syed
    Energy 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.

    Analyzing the Relationship Between Energy Efficiency and Environmental and Financial Variables: A Way Towards Sustainable Development
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022-08) Taskin, Dilvin; Dogan, Eyup; Madaleno, Mara
    The literature has mainly relied on an annual and short span of data to analyze the relationship between energy, environmental and financial indicators. This study analyzes the relationship between energy efficiency, energy research, pollution mitigation, and FinTech by applying two novel methods-the causality test in the frequency domain [11] and the causality test in the time domain (Shi et al., 2018; 2020) on the daily data from June 17, 2016 to November 16, 2021. Empirical results from the frequency domain test report that pollution mitigation temporarily causes energy efficiency only in the short run while energy efficiency Granger causes it in the short, medium, and long run. Furthermore, energy efficiency can predict FinTech in the short, medium, and long-run; on the other way, FinTech Granger causes energy efficiency in the long and medium run, suggesting a permanent causality relationship. Empirical results from the time-varying test show a bidirectional relationship between energy efficiency, and environmental and financial variables, especially with very high significant episodes around the recent pandemic collapse. Policymakers should promote the launch of financial technologies that will provide finance through green bonds for energy efficiency improvements as well as energy efficiency improvements for pollution mitigation. Further policy implications are discussed in the study.(c) 2022 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
