ABSTRACT The wave of digitalization has spread across all countries in the world, with lasting environmental consequences medium and long term. On flip side, impact resource richness, including its exploitation consumption, been an age‐long debate among policymakers, particularly emerging markets. As such, this study examines effect natural resources (NR), digital economy, clean energy consumption on ecological footprint (EF) load capacity factor (LCF) from 2000 to 2022. current enriches literature by assessing different dimensions economy both demand side supply quality. results augment mean group estimator suggest that NR economic growth increase EF models. However, indicators except ICT goods exports, alleviate EF. same set variables reduce also LCF for selected countries. Renewable (REC) heterogeneous effects LCF, suggesting is not adequately consumed In addition, direction causality flows A bidirectional exists between REC EF, LCF. Based findings, it recommended develop more technologies, intensify process promotion, mobilize benefits transition a sustainable environment.
