Abstract Foreign direct investment (FDI) flows from developed to developing countries may increase carbon emissions in as are seen pollution havens due their lenient environmental regulations. On the other hand, FDI world improve management practices and advanced technologies countries, an reduces emissions. Most of existing studies examine relationship between by using aggregate flows; however, this paper contributes literature analyzing impact on Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa (BRICS) 1993 2012 bilateral eleven OECD countries. According our empirical results, which country BRICS matters for Our results confirm that Denmark UK confirming haven hypothesis. France, Germany, Italy reduced halo effect. Austria, Finland, Japan, Netherlands, Portugal, Switzerland have no significant The should promote clean reducing damages, investing be rated based damage host

Does renewable energy reduce per capita carbon emissions and per capita ecological footprint? New evidence from 130 countries

Energy Strategy Reviews, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 49, P. 101121 - 101121

Published: July 20, 2023

This study explores whether increasing renewable energy consumption can alleviate environmental pressures (per capita carbon emissions and per ecological footprint) the heterogeneity of effects on countries in different income groups. We analyze 130 three groups from 1992 to 2019 based a panel threshold regression estimation approach. The results show that (i) There is negative relationship between footprint emissions, indicating alleviates pressure. (ii) When increases, become more significant. means developed, it helps (iii) inhibitory effect significant low-income than middle-income countries. indicates effective reducing poor rich

The role of renewable energy and total factor productivity in reducing CO2 emissions in Azerbaijan. Fresh insights from a new theoretical framework coupled with Autometrics

Energy Strategy Reviews, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 47, P. 101079 - 101079

Published: March 24, 2023

Environmental issues, such as carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, are humanity's most critical issues. Emissions released by oil-producing countries is not small. This because these have an abundance of fossil fuels with considerably low prices, and the cost using natural sources to obtain energy significantly cheaper than alternative sources. study examined pollution in Azerbaijan, country. It uses a new theoretically grounded framework which consumption-based CO2 emissions function renewable consumption (REC) total factor productivity (TFP), well income, exports, imports. REC TFP only emission-reducing properties but also growth-enhancing benefits are, therefore, very useful be considered environmental policies. Econometric analysis was conducted robustness checks state-of-the-art econometric methodology called Autometrics – machine learning algorithm for model discovery employed. found negatively affected REC. Exports exert negative impact on CO2, while effects income imports positive. Our key policy insights that Azerbaijani policymakers may wish implement policies further promote technological improvements, efficiency gains, transitions energy.

Unveiling the spillover effects of democracy and renewable energy consumption on the environmental quality of BRICS countries: A new insight from different quantile regression approaches

Renewable energy focus, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 46, P. 222 - 235

Published: June 26, 2023

This research explores the nexus of economic expansion, population, use renewable energy, democracy, and combined effect democracy GDP on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in BRICS countries. We apply an extended STIRPAT model, including variables with GDP, to examine case countries between 1990 2019. Quantile regression methods (Simultaneous, Powell, MM-QR) are applied together Dynamic OLS (DOLS), Fully modified (FMOLS), CCR. The results indicate that size (GDP) population linked increasing levels CO2. Whereas increased sources energy can help reduce environmental degradation. Similarly, interaction good growth is helpful for a sustainable environment. Dumitrescu Hurlin panel causality test highlights bidirectional causal link Democracy, Population CO2, but only unidirectional relationship Policymakers need consider:1) pro-growth policies along better democratic practices, 2) higher promotion resources, 3) improving living standards achieve quality.
