“…Yorucu and Varoglu (2020) studied the nexus among industrial production, electricity consumption, economic growth, and CO 2 e in selected small island states. Based on the FMOLS and DOLS estimations, the authors found that a one percent increase in electricity consumption predicted an upsurge of 0.79 percent in CO 2 e. In the same way, others studies have also reported a positive connection between electricity consumption and CO 2 e for China (Akadiri et al, 2020;Munir & Riaz, 2020;Ou, Xiaoyu, & Zhang, 2011;Xu, Hong, Ren, Wang, & Yuan, 2015;Zhang, 2019); Spain (Zarco-Soto, Zarco-Periñán, & Sánchez-Durán, 2020); South Asian economies (Munir & Riaz, 2019); Bangladesh (Shahbaz, Salah Uddin, Ur Rehman, & Imran, 2014); ASEAN countries (Lean & Smyth, 2010); Pakistan (Rehman et al, 2019) BRICS (Cowan, Chang, Inglesi-Lotz, & Gupta, 2014;Haseeb, Xia, Saud, Ahmad, & Khurshid, 2019); and Kuwait (Salahuddin, Alam, Ozturk, & Sohag, 2018).…”
