Utilizing Fourier autoregressive distributed lag and Toda–Yamamoto causality methodologies, this research assesses the effects that renewable energy consumption environmental policy had on economic sustainability of China from 1991 to 2022. Our findings highlight positive impacts use stringent policies China’s growth, while also pinpointing supportive roles played by foreign direct investment, trade openness, financial sector evolution in fostering a sustainable environment. Conversely, reliance fossil fuels emerges as significant barrier sustainability. Causality tests confirm essential advancing This study underscores critical need for integrating strategies within development framework, advocating holistic approach balances growth with conservation. imperative sustainability-centered strategy advancement.

Yellow River Basin (YRB) is a pivotal region for energy consumption and carbon emissions (CEs) in China, with cities emerging as the main sources of regional CEs. This highlights their critical role achieving sustainable development China's neutrality. Consequently, there pressing need detailed exploration urban spillover effects an in-depth analysis complex determinants influencing CEs within YRB. Remote sensing data provide optimal conditions conducting extensive studies across large geographical areas extended time periods. study integrates DMSP/OLS NPP/VIIRS nighttime light datasets longitudinal Using harmonized dataset from 2007 to 2021, this quantifies 58 prefecture-level By combining ESDA, STIRPAT model spatial econometric model, investigation further clarifies empirically driving factors The delineates phase-wise augmentation CEs, converging towards distinct distribution characterized by "lower reach > middle upper reach". autocorrelation tests unravel interplay between agglomeration differentiation patterns underscored pronounced lock-in phenomena. Significantly, demonstrates that urbanization, economic development, structure, green coverage rate, industrial population, technological progress, FDI each exhibit varied direct indirect effect on Furthermore, it elaborates potential policy implications future research directions, offering crucial insights formulating mitigation strategies advance development.
