The renewable energy transition could support a clean environment in any region as per sustainable development goals. Thus, this paper aims to explore the impact of on CO2 emissions fossil fuel-dependent 11 MENA economies from 2001 2023. For purpose, study employs novel cross-sectional dependence (CSD) techniques find robust results. results expose that income capita positively influences with coefficient 14.325.
