Impact of nuclear and renewable energy sources on environment quality: Testing the EKC and LCC hypotheses for South Korea

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 55(2), P. 587 - 594

Published: Oct. 28, 2022

This study investigates the impacts of nuclear energy consumption on environmental quality from a different perspective by focusing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, ecological footprint, and load capacity factor. In this context, South Korea case, which is leading country producing consuming energy, investigated considering also economic growth, 1997 Asian crisis 1977 to 2018. To end, employs autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) approach. Different previous literature, proposes curve (LCC) tests LCC Kuznets (EKC) hypotheses simultaneously. The analysis results reveal that (i) EKC are valid in Korea; (ii) has an improving effect quality; (iii) renewable does not have significant long-term impact environment; (iv) had increasing factor; (v) yet reached turning point, identified as $55,411, where per capita income improves quality. Overall, show validity prove positive contribution Korea's green development strategies.

Decoupling the role of renewable energy, green finance and political stability in achieving the sustainable development goal 13: Empirical insight from emerging economies

Sustainable Development, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: June 27, 2023

Abstract The quest for attaining ‘sustainable development goals (SDGs)’, especially ‘SDG‐13’, which addresses the policy towards lessening risk of climate change, is impossible without abating CO 2 emissions, are a major contributor to change globally. Thus, this study inspects decisive role played by renewable energy use, green finance, and political stability in achieving SDG‐13 emissions 14 emerging economies from 1990 2021. We have used cross‐sectional autoregressive distributed lag method moments quantile regression estimators analyse impact explanatory variables on dependent variable, considering probable endogeneity issue model. outcome signifies that consumption finance substantially reduce whereas observed positive emissions. Moreover, moderation effect found reducing carbon This thus suggests need stronger system promote financing attain SDGs addressing policy.

Influence of green technology, green energy consumption, energy efficiency, trade, economic development and FDI on climate change in South Asia

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 12(1)

Published: Sept. 30, 2022

Abstract Climate change policy has several potential risks. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact green technology development, energy consumption, efficiency, foreign direct investment, economic growth, and trade (imports exports) on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in South Asia from 1981 2018. We employed Breusch Pagan LM, bias-corrected scaled Pesaran CD as part a series techniques that can assist resolving problem cross-sectional dependence. First second generation unit root tests are used assess stationarity series, Pedroni Kao test co-integration. long-term associations examined using fully modified ordinary least square (FMOLS) panel dynamic (DOLS) for robustness. results revealed trade, growth rate, exports significantly increase GHG emissions. This accepted leakage phenomenon. also demonstrated imports all have significant negative correlation with Imports, advanced technical processes, transition non-green efficiency thus critical components executing climate legislation. These findings highlight profound importance development ecologically sustainable Asian countries act crucial resource other nations throughout world when it comes ecological security. research recommends consumption environmentally friendly energy-efficient technologies order mitigate government's implementation most recent policies neutralize achieve development.

Effect of income, energy consumption, energy prices, political stability, and geopolitical risk on the environment: Evidence from GCC countries by novel quantile-based methods

Energy & Environment, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: July 27, 2023

This research investigates the effects of income, total energy consumption (TEC), price index (EPI), crude oil (COP), political risk (PRI), and geopolitical (GPR) on environmental degradation. In this context, study includes five Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, which are mainly oil-rich have high fossil fuel with increasing degradation; considers monthly data from 2000/1 to 2021/12, deploys novel quantile-based methods. The outcomes demonstrate that (i) an increase in TEC, EPI stimulates degradation all GCC countries; (ii) PRI, COP, GPR mixed (iii) a causal effect regressors CO 2 emissions exists quantiles except for some middle (0.45–0.55) higher (0.95); (iv) power vary according (v) consistency results is validated based robust model. findings reveal generally harmful environment but, effects. methods underline significance stability as non-economic non-energy factors by demonstrating varying countries. Accordingly, various policies, such focusing stability, benefitting leverage, enabling transition clean energy, discussed.
