Abstract Africa must ensure that its development trajectories are sustainable. In pursuit of viable policy pathways, this study examines the eco‐impact energy mix (Te) and financial (FD) in selected African countries. The Te path is defined using emission‐intensity paradigm, where positive trends indicate a strong dependence on fossil fuels, while negative suggest shift toward greener sources. FD impact disaggregated to recognize separate effects market‐based (FM) institution‐based (FI) development.

The purpose of this paper is to identify the driving elements South African financial sector. While Africa’s sector appears robust, there exists a dearth empirical research investigating determinants its development. Thus, work assesses how three critical factors: natural resource abundance (NR), IT infrastructure, and government expenditure levels affect development (FD) in Africa using annual data from 1971 2020. Preliminary findings show that series are integrated, they cointegrated. Results regression analysis suggest NR does not significantly contribute Africa. Conversely, advanced larger size, openness trade associated with more developed implications these essential for policymakers stakeholders understanding factors drive study recommends that, among others, innovative approaches needed channel gains resources effectively into

This text mining study delves into the multifaceted contributions of energy sector to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). By analyzing 363 papers, we uncover key themes, trends, and challenges shaping intersection sustainability. The findings reveal that plays a pivotal role in achieving SDGs such as affordable clean (SDG 7) climate action 13). Critical issues encompass governance, policy frameworks, technological innovations. research underscores need for interdisciplinary collaboration holistic approaches addressing complex energy-related sustainability challenges. insights derived here provide guidance policymakers, researchers, stakeholders seeking harness sector’s potential more sustainable equitable future.
