ASEAN countries are emerging economies facing substantial, sustainable energy production and consumption challenges. Power sources’ availability, sustainability, and efficiency are imperative to ensure ecological sustainability. Therefore, these countries must explore the factors that promote sustainable energy supply. The current study investigates the interlinkages between energy infrastructure, financial inclusion, and digitalization on the ecological sustainability of ASEAN region from 1980 to 2018. The study applied the continuously updated fully modified (CUP-FM) and continuously updated bias-corrected (CUP-BC) estimators to address cross-sectional dependency and slope heterogeneity issues. The study’s findings show that energy infrastructure, financial inclusion, and digitalization help to reduce ecological footprints in the long run. Moreover, digitalization complements the impact of energy-efficient infrastructure on ecological footprints. These findings recommend that ASEAN countries should improve energy infrastructure by integrating digitalization into energy supply production, management, and distribution.

“…Using the PM-ADRL method for the empirical analysis to uncover the association and discovered that the association between TEC and EF is negative. Furthermore, Gupta et al (2022)'s work in the context of Bangladesh, discovered that TEC reduces EF. Xu Y. et al (2022) in their work of TEC-EF association in China for the period between 1990 and 20187, disclosed that the decrease in EF can be attributed to the increase in TEC.…”

Brazil’s ability to provide safe and dependable resources that can assist the nation achieve its goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2060 will have a significant impact on the nation’s sustainable development. Therefore, this study performs ARDL and frequency domain causality tests to evaluate the effect of disintegrated energy, technological innovation and economic growth on load capacity factor in South Africa between 1990 and 2018. The ARDL bounds test affirms a long-run interrelationship between the selected indicators in South Africa. The long-run elasticities show that economic expansion and nonrenewable energy deteriorate ecological quality, while green energy and technological innovation significantly boost ecological quality. The results of the frequency causality show that in the long-term, renewable energy, economic growth, technological innovation and nonrenewable energy Granger cause load capacity factor suggesting that the regressors can forecast the environmental quality in South Africa. Overall, these results demonstrate the significance of renewable energy in the fight against ecological deterioration. According to the aforementioned findings, South Africa’s environmental damage may be greatly reduced by renewable energy.

“…This section could be divided into three sub-sections: first, we focus on treating renewable and non-renewable energy consumption-emission nexus (Sahoo and Sahoo, 2020). Second, we mention the role played by trade and FDI in carbon emission effects (Gizem et al, 2017;Shahbaz et al, 2015;Usman et al, 2022b;Sahoo et al, 2021a;Sahoo and Sahoo, 2019;Sahoo et al, 2021b;Villanthenkodath et al, 2021;Gupta et al, 2022;Rout et al, 2022;Sahoo and Sahoo, 2020;Ali et al, 2022), and finally, we show the inclusion of urbanization in energy and environmental function (Sheng et al, 2017;Yang et al, 2021a;Qayyum et al, 2021;Jahanger et al, 2022a).…”

This study examines the impact of renewable and non-renewable energy consumption on carbon emissions, considering the role of population density, urbanization, foreign direct investment, technological innovation, and trade openness for African countries from 1990 to 2019. We apply an advanced econometric methodology like the cross-sectional autoregressive distributed model (CS-ARDL) for long-run and short-run estimation, which allows for the cross-sectional dependencies and slope heterogeneity. Our finding shows that the non-renewable resources, population density, urbanization, and foreign direct investment contribute to the carbon emissions; in contrast, renewable resources and trade openness reduce the carbon emissions in African countries. Results also report a unidirectional causality from non-renewable energy consumption to carbon emissions, while there is evidence of a feedback hypothesis between renewable energy consumption and carbon emissions. This study provides several policy implications for sustainable development.
