  • renewable Energy Consumption economic growth nexus in turkey
    Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2013
    Co-Authors: Oguz Ocal, Alper Aslan
    Abstract:

    This paper examines the renewable Energy Consumption–economic growth causality nexus in Turkey. Studies in the literature can be grouped as country-specific and multi-country studies. The results of these studies are inconsistent, and there is no agreement on the existence or the direction of causality between renewable Energy Consumption and economic growth. The results of this country-specific study support conservation hypothesis. The results of empirical tests from ARDL approach show that renewable Energy Consumption has a negative impact on economic growth, and the ones of Toda–Yamamoto causality tests show that there is a unidirectional causality running from economic growth to renewable Energy Consumption.

  • Energy Consumption and economic growth in the USA: Evidence from renewable Energy
    Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2012
    Co-Authors: Ersin YILDIRIM, Şenay Saraç, Alper Aslan
    Abstract:

    Recent debates about renewable Energy Consumption manifest two main expectations. Firstly, renewable Energy Consumption should contribute to economic growth and secondly, it should not cause damage on environment. This study focuses on the first issue by applying Toda–Yamamoto procedure and bootstrap-corrected causality test for the US since empirical literature criticizes the Toda–Yamamoto test which bases on asymptotic distribution. The models consist of real GDP, employment, investment and kinds of renewable Energy Consumption. Only one causal relationship was found from biomass-waste-derived Energy Consumption to real GDP. No causal relationship was found between real GDP and all of the other renewable Energy kinds—total renewable Energy Consumption, geothermal Energy Consumption, hydro-electric Energy Consumption, biomass Energy Consumption and biomass-wood-derived Energy Consumption. That is using of Energy from waste cause not only solving the dumping problems but also it contributes to real GDP. For policy purpose, the results of this study suggest that countries should concentrate on Energy producing from waste as an alternative Energy resource.

  • renewable Energy nonrenewable Energy Consumption and economic growth
    Energy Sources Part B-economics Planning and Policy, 2017
    Co-Authors: Soheila Khoshnevis Yazdi, Bahram Shakouri
    Abstract:

    ABSTRACTThis study examines the relationship between economic growth, renewable Energy Consumption, Energy Consumption, financial development, and trade openness over the period 1979–2014 in case of Iran, using Autoregressive Lag (Distributed ARDL) approach and Granger causality test. The renewable Energy Consumption has a negative impact on economic growth in the short run and the long run.We find the unidirectional causality from renewable Energy Consumption to economic growths apply to determine the causality between variables. This finding implies that economic growth is favorable for the development of the renewable Energy sector, which in turn helps boost economic growth in Iran.

  • causality between renewable Energy Energy Consumption and economic growth
    Energy Sources Part B-economics Planning and Policy, 2017
    Co-Authors: Bahram Shakouri, Soheila Khoshnevis Yazdi
    Abstract:

    ABSTRACTThis study examines the relationship between economic growth, renewable Energy Consumption, Energy Consumption, capital fixed formation, and trade openness for the period 1971–2015 for South Africa. In this regard, the study used auto-regressive distributed lag (ARDL) bound testing approach. The empirical findings show that the variables in the study are cointegrated indicating the existence of long-run relationship among them. Granger causality test shows that there exists bidirectional causality between renewable Energy Consumption and trade openness to economic growth. This result supports feedback hypothesis. The stability of model was also checked at the end. The empirical findings provide strong evidence that the interdependence between renewable Energy Consumption and economic growth indicates that renewable Energy is important for economic growth, and likewise economic growth encourages the use of more renewable Energy source.

  • can urban rail transit curb automobile Energy Consumption
    Energy Policy, 2017
    Co-Authors: Boqiang Lin
    Abstract:

    With the rapid development of China's economy and the speed of urbanization, China's automobile sector has experienced rapid development. The rapid development of the automobile sector has increased Energy Consumption. According to the results of this paper, automobile Energy Consumption accounted for about 10.73% of total Energy Consumption in China in 2015, about 3.6 times the proportion a decade ago. With the deterioration of urban traffic conditions, relying on expanding the amount of vehicles and city road network cannot solve the problem. Urban rail transit is Energy-saving and less-polluting, uses less space, has large capacity, and secure. Urban rail transit, according to the principle of sustainable development, is a green transportation system and should be especially adopted for large and medium-sized cities. The paper uses the binary choice model (Probit and Logit) to analyze the main factors influencing the development of rail transit in Chinese cities, and whether automobile Energy Consumption is the reason for the construction of urban rail transit. Secondly, we analyze the influence of urban rail transit on automobile Energy Consumption using DID model. The results indicate that the construction of urban rail traffic can restrain automobile Energy Consumption significantly, with continuous impact in the second year.

  • renewable Energy Consumption economic growth nexus for china
    Renewable & Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2014
    Co-Authors: Boqiang Lin, Mohamed Moubarak
    Abstract:

    The aim of this paper is to investigate the relationship between renewable Energy Consumption and economic growth in China for the period 1977–2011. Autoregressive Distributed Lag approach (ARDL) to cointegration and Johansen cointegration techniques are employed by including intermittent variables namely carbon dioxide emissions and labor. We also employed Granger causality test in order to determine the direction of the causality among the variables. The results show that there is a bi-directional long term causality between renewable Energy Consumption and economic growth. This finding implies that growing economy in China is propitious for the development of renewable Energy sector which in turn helps to boost economic growth. We also find that labor influences renewable Energy Consumption in the short term. However, there is no evidence of long or short run causality between carbon emissions and renewable Energy Consumption. This implies that actual level of renewable Energy in China is still insignificant and not considerably exploited in order to contribute to the mitigation of carbon dioxide emissions.

  • analysis of road transportation Energy Consumption demand in china
    Transportation Research Part D-transport and Environment, 2016
    Co-Authors: Jian Chai, Shouyang Wang, Kin Keung Lai
    Abstract:

    Abstract In this paper, we first analyze the historical trends in road transportation Energy Consumption and GDP in developed economies to find out the development characteristics of road Energy Consumption. The two indexes present obvious ‘S’ type patterns. Then, in order to explore the current status and future trend of road Energy transportation in China, we employ path analysis to analyze the impact mechanism of the factors related to road transportation Energy Consumption. Next, we adopt the BMA model to select the core factors related to road transportation Energy Consumption in China, and on the basis of the model selection as well as univariate (ETS & ARIMA models) and multivariate (multiple regression) models, the road transportation Energy Consumption is analyzed and forecast. The results showed that the road transportation Energy Consumption rises by 0.33 percent for every percent increase in GDP and by 1.26 percentage points for every percent increase in urbanization. The road transportation Energy Consumption in China is expected to reach around 226181.1 ktoe by the end of 2015, and about 347,363 ktoe by 2020.
