    The Role of Interaction Effect Between Renewable Energy Consumption and Real Income in Carbon Emissions: Evidence From Low-Income Countries
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022-02) Ehigiamusoe, Kizito Uyi; Dogan, Eyup
    Even though the existing studies have extensively investigated the impacts of renewable energy and real income on carbon emissions, the literature overlooks the role of their interaction effect in the level of emissions. In addition, the studies have usually chosen high-income and middle-income countries as focused group. To fill these gaps in the existing body of energy-environment literature, this study investigates the impacts of real income, renewable energy consumption and their interaction effect on carbon emissions in low-income countries by employing empirical estimations that control different econometric and economic issues such as heterogeneity and cross-sectional dependence. The results reveal that renewable energy mitigates emissions; however, the interaction effect stays positive. The marginal effect of renewable energy on emissions varies with the levels of real income. Policymakers in these economies should implement policies and regulations to promote the adoption and use of renewable energy to mitigate carbon emissions. Besides, this study emphasizes that the levels of renewable energy and real income are not the only panacea to abating pollution, but the interaction effect should be considered in ensuring environmental sustainability.

    The Moderating Role of Renewable and Non-Renewable Energy in Environment-Income Nexus for Asean Countries: Evidence From Method of Moments Quantile Regression
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2021-02) Anwar, Ahsan; Siddique, Muhammad; Dogan, Eyup; Sharif, Arshian Aslam
    A vast body of studies estimates the impact of energy consumption on the environment. A typical empirical study either use aggregate energy consumption or apply conventional econometric techniques in modelling the nexus of energy, income and environment. To correct these gaps, the objective of the study is to use renewable and non-renewable energy consumption in analyzing energy-income-environment nexus, and to apply the novel Method of Moments Quantile Regression for ASEAN countries. The outcomes indicate that non-renewable energy consumption stimulate carbon emissions across all quantiles (10th to 90th), the value of the 10th quantile is 0.257 which rises to 0.501 till 90th quantile. Whereas, the renewable energy consumption leads to a decrease in CO<inf>2</inf> emissions across all the quantiles (10th to 90th) but this association is statistically insignificant at higher quantiles from 60th to 90th. The empirical outcomes also verify the presence of the environmental Kuznets curve relationship, which is statistically significant from the middle (30th) to higher (90th) quantiles. Moreover, the finding of panel estimation approaches (FMOLS, DOLS, FE-OLS) also verify the existence of the EKC hypothesis in ASEAN countries. Their finding also describes that 1% increase in non-renewable energy consumption increase CO<inf>2</inf> emission by 0.29%, 0.26% and 0.30% whereas 1% increase in the usage of renewable energy reduces CO<inf>2</inf> emission by 0.17%, 0.15% and 0.17% in case of FMOLS, DOLS and FE-OLS respectively. The empirical results conclude that the government should encourage and subsidize the sources of green energy to tackle environmental degradation. More policy implications are further discussed in the study. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Ecological Footprints and Sustainable Environmental Management: A Critical View of China's Economy
    (Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023-12) Li, Menghan; Badeeb, Ramez Abubakr; Dogan, Eyup; Gu, Xiao; Zhang, Hong
    Global economies have recently been concerned about sustainable environmental management by reducing emissions and tackling ecological footprints. The rapid economic expansion and investment in traditional manufacturing further raises environmental degradation. China surpasses other emerging economies in the economic growth race yet has remained the top pollution-emitting economy for the last few decades, necessitating scholarly attention. This study examines the influencing factors of ecological footprints in China from the perspective of COP27. Using the extended dataset from 1988 to 2021, this study uses several time series diagnostic tests and verifies the existence of the long-run association between the study variables. Consequently, the non-linear scattered data leads to non-parametric (method of moment quantile regression) adoption. The empirical results indicate that only economic growth is a significant factor in environmental quality degradation in China. However, improving renewable energy usage, research and development, and foreign direct investment reduces the country's ecological footprint. Hence, the latter variables substantially lead to environmental sustainability. The robustness of the results is confirmed via a robust non-parametric estimator and causality test. Based on the empirical results, this study recommends increased investment in research and development, renewable production, and foreign direct investment enhancement.

    Analyzing the Linkage Between Renewable and Non-Renewable Energy Consumption and Economic Growth by Considering Structural Break in Time-Series Data
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2016-12) Dogan, Eyup
    Even though a number of studies investigate the energy-growth nexus, only a small number of the existing studies use estimation techniques with structural break. Furthermore, majority of the existing studies use aggregate energy consumption and thus fail to identify the effects of energy consumption by sources on economic growth. By taking into account the importance of structural break, this study analyzes the short run and the long run estimates as well as the causality relationship between economic growth, renewable and non-renewable energy consumption for Turkey in a multivariate model wherein capital and labor are included as additional variables. By including additional variables into the model, we also attempt to handle omitted-variable bias problem. This study finds that renewable energy consumption has an insignificant impact on economic growth while non-renewable energy consumption has a significant positive effect on it. The coefficients on capital and labor are statistically significant. Furthermore, we have enough evidence to support conservation hypothesis and feedback hypothesis between renewable energy consumption and economic growth in the short run and the long run, respectively, and feedback hypothesis between non-renewable energy consumption and economic growth both in the short run and the long run. Several policy implications are further discussed. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Analyzing the Determinants of Renewable Energy: The Moderating Role of Technology and Macroeconomic Uncertainty
    (Sage Publications Ltd, 2022-11-11) Chishti, Muhammad Zubair; Dogan, Eyup
    In line with the importance of SDG-7, a number of studies have endeavored to divulge the changes in renewable energy consumption (REC); however, the literature fails to either understand the importance of technology i.e., information communication technologies (ICT) and macroeconomic uncertainty in this context or employ robust econometric techniques. This research paper extends the prior literature by focusing on technology and macroeconomic uncertainty as novel determinants in addition to natural resources, human development, globalization, and economic growth as control variables of renewable energy for the top 10 renewable energy-consuming countries by applying several second and third generation econometric tests on annual data from 1990 to 2017. The empirical estimations determine ICT as a crucial factor of renewable energy, suggesting that it significantly triggers REC in the top economies. Conversely, the detrimental effects of uncertainty tend to shrink REC. Furthermore, natural resources, human development, globalization, and economic growth significantly boost REC as consistent with the existing literature. Based on these findings, this study suggests several SGD-oriented policies.
