Assessing the Impact of Green Energy Transition, Technological Innovation, and Natural Resources on Load Capacity Factor in Algeria: Evidence from Dynamic Autoregressive Distributed Lag Simulations and Machine Learning Validation

Sustainability, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(5), С. 1815 - 1815

Algeria’s resource-dependent economy faces significant challenges in balancing hydrocarbon reliance with environmental sustainability, yet existing research largely overlooks the comprehensive load capacity factor (LCF) metric favor of traditional emissions analyses. This study examines relationships between LCF and key economic–environmental factors Algeria from 1980 to 2023, including total natural resource rents, energy transition, technological innovation, GDP, primary consumption, urbanization. Using ARDL DARDL econometric approaches complemented by a kernel-based regularized least squares analysis, captures both linear nonlinear while accounting for asymmetric dynamics short- long-term perspectives. The findings reveal that urbanization significantly impair LCF, consumption shows minimal positive impact. transition initiatives demonstrate mixed effects, highlighting complexities green implementation economies. These results suggest sustainable development requires targeted policies focusing on management efficiency, environmentally conscious urban planning, technology adoption, providing valuable insights other resource-rich nations pursuing similar sustainability transitions.

This study explores the relationship between CO2 emissions by GDP, population, energy production, and consumption in United States, China, Romania, Thailand economies from 1990 to 2019. It evaluates phenomenon of catch-up growth, which transpires when an lagging economy goes through expansionary phase after a period below-average performance. We used stochastic model illustrate terms alpha beta decoupling techniques. The outcomes validated positive negative attitudes play crucial role predicting rise owing oil, gas, coal use comparison Romania. Romania have more viable road sustainability than States China.

Assessing the impact of public digitalization on sustainability: the mediating role of technological innovation in the context of the EU

Discover Sustainability, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 5(1)

Опубликована: Авг. 20, 2024

Public sector digitalization and technological innovation are increasingly being recognized as key drivers of sustainable development. To maintain growth, it is imperative for economies within the European Union (EU) to adopt public practices mitigate risk negative economic environmental outcomes. However, interplay between these two factors their impact on sustainability remain underexplored. We draw insights from Triple Bottom Line (TBL) theory develop test a theoretical model assess mediating role in relationship context (EU). Using panel dataset EU countries 2018 2023, this study employs structural equation modeling (SEM) analyze direct indirect effects sustainability. The findings suggest that positively significantly influences innovation, which, turn, fosters progress. Moreover, our confirm mediates These provide valuable policymakers practitioners seeking harness power achieve development goals. This highlights importance promoting catalyst driver progress EU.

Abstract Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), whose atmospheric volume has been increasing, is the principal greenhouse gas (GHG) that causes global warming and climate change. Climate change from increasing gases (GHGs) broad health environmental influences. Human-emitted GHGs constitute a significant cause of warming. The main objective this article to assess influence technological innovation, economic growth, fossil energy use, renewable consumption, globalisation on CO emissions Es) in South Africa over observation period 1990–2020. Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS) estimator was implemented examine relationship between constituents. study results indicate boost Es, whereas consumption reduces Es. output canonical cointegrating regression fully modified least squares estimators also supports DOLS estimator.

Towards Sustainable Development: Assessing the Significance of World Uncertainty in Green Technology Innovation

Sustainability, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(3), С. 1314 - 1314

Опубликована: Фев. 6, 2025

This paper uses the two-way fixed effects model to empirically examine impact of World Uncertainty Index (WUI) on Green Patents (GPs). Quantitative results indicate that WUI negatively affects GPs, meaning world uncertainty significantly hinders green technology innovation. effect is mediated through relaxed environmental regulation and reduced financial support. These findings underline increased decreases both variables support, thus delaying innovation technology. Low-income countries’ weak economic technological bases have a statistically insignificant negative GP. However, significant indicated for high-income countries, reflecting their higher sensitivity uncertainties. The WUI’s more GPs experienced in middle-income countries due continuous development less adaptability.
