Role of economic complexity and technological innovation for ecological footprint in newly industrialized countries: Does geothermal energy consumption matter?

Renewable Energy, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 217, С. 119059 - 119059

Опубликована: Июль 19, 2023

This research evaluates how energy (geothermal and coal), economic complexity, technological innovation impact the ecological footprint in newly industrialized countries (NICs), considering period 1990–2018. The authors employed innovation, as significant considerations instead of standard environmental parameters. study used cross-sectional augmented distributed lag (CS-ARDL) pairwise Dumitrescu-Hurlin (DH) panel causality to consider dynamic character correlation between Environment activities. outcomes CS-ARDL showed that growth coal intensify both long short run. However, results revealed geothermal consumption, lessen NICs Finally, DH a unidirectional from geothermal, use footprint. demonstrates all exogenous variables have predicted power on footprints NICs. Based these findings, policy measures diversify products potential tackle problems.

Brazil’s ability to provide safe and dependable resources that can assist the nation achieve its goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2060 will have a significant impact on nation’s sustainable development. Therefore, this study performs ARDL frequency domain causality tests evaluate effect disintegrated energy, technological innovation economic growth load capacity factor in South Africa between 1990 2018. The bounds test affirms long-run interrelationship selected indicators Africa. elasticities show expansion nonrenewable energy deteriorate ecological quality, while green significantly boost quality. results long-term, renewable growth, Granger cause suggesting regressors forecast environmental quality Overall, these demonstrate significance fight against deterioration. According aforementioned findings, Africa’s damage may be greatly reduced energy.
