Renewable energy has emerged as a transformative and essential alternative in the global sector. Many countries are striving to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established by United Nations for 2030, particularly goal of ensuring that all individuals have access clean affordable energy. This paper re-examines impact economic growth (EG), trade openness (TO), exchange rates (ER), foreign direct investment (FDI), green finance (GF), oil prices (OL) on renewable consumption (REC) across 14 Southern African countries: South Africa, Botswana, Lesotho, Namibia, Tanzania, Madagascar, Mauritius, Kenya, Comoros, Zambia, Eswatini, Rwanda, Angola, Mozambique, during period 2000 2022. study employed cointegration unit root tests, well RALS-EG MMQR models, estimate long-run relationships among variables. The results reveal is positively directly related growth, openness, rates, finance, quantiles (q05–q95), with no evidence asymmetric effects. These findings suggest crucial fostering innovation countries. Policymakers encouraged prioritize strategies enhance these factors foundation achieving sustainable solutions.

That notwithstanding, studies been largely engrossed verifying roles on economic growth and environment. Consequently, this research provides first empirical evidence impacts a dataset 73 countries from 1997 2019. To extend frontier knowledge, technological advancement, structural change, regulatory quality, foreign direct investment considered model. The relies cross‐sectional autoregressive distributed lag, augmented mean group; common correlated effects group method moment quantile regression. preliminary analyses show world is presently renewable deficit while recording gradual shift relying resources. Feedbacks model evaluated expose resource dependence curses through its militating impacts. Besides, significantly positively drive energy. regression analysis diverging magnitudes.
