South Africa's heavy reliance on fossil fuels has posed significant challenges to environmental sustainability, primarily due the associated climate change concerns. To combat these issues, African government turned technological innovation. However, research examining combined impact of technology and energy use quality in country remains scarce. This study aims fill this gap by utilizing a novel dynamic autoregressive distributed lag (DARDL) simulation framework analyze influence various factors CO2 emissions from 1960 2020. Key findings include that innovation contributes emission reduction over both short long terms. The "scale effect" exacerbates emissions, while "technique mitigates them, aligning with Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis. Additionally, consumption, foreign direct investment, industrial value-added have adverse impacts quality. Surprisingly, increased trade openness, despite short-term benefits, proves detrimental environment term, supporting pollution haven hypothesis (PHH). In light findings, emphasizes vital role achieving security ecological integrity. policymakers should consider as clean source address bolster sustainability.
