Article Citation - WoS: 147Citation - Scopus: 159Investigating the Spillovers and Connectedness Between Green Finance and Renewable Energy Sources(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022-09) Dogan, Eyup; Madaleno, Mara; Taskin, Dilvin; Tzeremes, PanayiotisAlthough a few studies have analyzed the nexus of renewable energy and green finance, the literature lacks the use of renewable energy by sources. The other major failure is that it uses only annual and small data. Therefore, this study investigates the connectedness and spillovers relationship between green finance and five types of renewable energy (biofuels, fuel cell, geothermal, solar, and wind) by applying the novel TVP-VAR method of Balcilar et al. [1] to the daily indexes from July 31, 2014, to Feb 4, 2022. The results show that dynamic connectedness, both total and pairwise, is heterogeneous over time and influenced by economic events. Furthermore, wind is found to be the largest transmitter of shocks to green finance, followed by biofuels, while both fuel cell and geothermal receive the least shocks. The findings suggest that green finance is mostly a net receiver of shocks from renewable energy sources and that wind has been a net receiver of shocks during the COVID-19 pandemic. A high interconnectedness between the indexes highlights the safe-haven property for diversification purposes of green finance. Our results are important for energy policymakers, those responsible for the implementation of environmental policies, individual investors, and portfolio managers, while also shedding light on the achievement of COP26 goals.Article Citation - WoS: 318Citation - Scopus: 359A Step Forward on Sustainability: The Nexus of Environmental Responsibility, Green Technology, Clean Energy and Green Finance(Elsevier, 2022-05) Madaleno, Mara; Dogan, Eyup; Taskin, DilvinThe literature lacks enough evidence on the nexus of green finance and clean energy although the terms 'green' and 'clean' have been eminent concepts in sustainable development. Therefore, the fundamental objective of this study is to carry out the causal relationship among green finance, clean energy, environmental responsibility, and green technology by applying the novel time-varying causality test (Shi et al., 2018, 2020) on the daily data spanning from July 31, 2014, to October 12, 2021. The data follow persistent upward and downward movements; thus, the application of a time-varying approach should be reliable and robust. The recursive evolving and rolling window algorithms show bidirectional causalities among green finance, clean energy, environmental responsibility, and green technology, but not for the entire period, and with a special decrease and loss of significance in the COVID-19 period. In addition, clean energy caused by green finance is less evident, except in specific periods, especially at the start of the pandemic. However, higher volatility and significance of causality are observed for the entire period running from clean energy to green finance. Thus, green finance investments are promoted and proportionated by the need for clean energy. This study exhibits the need to design a comprehensive policy for strengthening environmental responsibility and green finance through the funding of green technology to successful energy transition and sustainable development goals.
