“…However, closest empirical studies have been done by Magazzino andCerulli (2019), Zakarya et al (2015) and Nordin et al (2015) which respectively focused on Middle East and North African (MENA) countries, BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) and ASEAN countries. Although majority of countries in these groups are emerging economies, these groupings of countries are far from being a true representation of transitional economies bloc of countries.…”

The study's main objective was to investigate the macroeconomic determinants of carbon emissions in transitional economies using panel methods with data ranging from 1996 to 2014. The main data analysis was done using econometric estimation methods such as fixed effects, random effects, pooled ordinary least squares (OLS) and the dynamic generalized methods of moments (GMM) approach whilst robustness tests were done under the umbrella term, the lagged independent variable approach. To a larger extent, infrastructural development, economic growth, trade openness, financial development and natural resources were found to have had a significant positive effect on carbon emissions, in line with major theoretical predictions. On the other hand, renewable energy consumption, foreign direct investment, information and communication technology and human capital development were mainly found to have reduced carbon emissions in transitional economies. The results are firmly supported by literature. Transitional economies are therefore urged to increase their use of renewable energy and information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure, attract more foreign direct investment (FDI) and implement policies aimed at enhancing human capital development to reduce carbon emissions. Given data availability, future studies must investigate whether other macroeconomic variables mentioned in the empirical literature that they determine carbon emissions are relevant in transitional economies.

Economic feasibility of electric vehicles: A case study

Personal transportation is prevalent in Brunei Darussalam because of the lack of adequate public transportation. However, Brunei is not immune to the effects of climate change and as such, has launched a national policy to mitigate the impacts. As electric vehicles presently are very rare to Brunei, this article seeks to determine the total cost of ownership of internationally popular electric vehicles (EVs) and internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs) to put things in perspective for the Brunei market. The methodology investigated how the total cost of ownership (TCO) is affected by depreciation, interest repayment, maintenance and repair, fuel costs, taxation, and insurance premiums. We have determined that without any subsidies, predictably TCOs of EVs are higher than popular ICEVs; however, they are comparable to TCOs of European premium brands. The Tesla Model 3 has a TCO of USD 760 per month whereas a Mercedes Benz C200 has a TCO USD800 per month. The authors have suggested that a 30% subsidy on the showroom price of EVs be introduced and to improve charging infrastructure as this would be vital to governmental policy planning as Brunei seeks to increase the ownership of electric vehicles to 60% by 2035.
