Dynamic panel modelling of electricity consumption and Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS)

Abstract: The effect of electricity consumption on economic growth of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) Member Countries has been examined during the period 2007–2016. The study applied both static and dynamic panel models in the form of Fixed‐Effect, Random‐Effect, Difference GMM and System GMM. The results revealed that electricity consumption has a positive and statistically significant impact on economic growth for both static and dynamic panel models. Capital has also been found to have impacte… Show more

“…This suggests that a 1% rise in the labour force will stimulate EG to rise by 0.72% in the short and 0.30% in the long run. This finding corroborate with the studies of Lee and Chang (2008), Inuwa et al (2016), Apergis and Payne (2009) and Inuwa et al (2019). Furthermore, the coefficient of gross fixed capital formation has also been found to have influenced EG positively in not only short but long run.…”

“…In Kazakhstan, Khan et al (2018) investigated the relationship between electricity consumption and economic growth by incorporating trade openness, capital and labour in Kazakhstan's production function using annual data for 1991-2014 and revealed Granger's electricity consumption causes economic growth and trade openness. Inuwa et al (2019) examined the economic growth of the Economic Community of Western African States (ECOWAS) in 2007-2016 in relation to the effect of electricity consumption and disclosed that both static and dynamic panel-based models had a positive and statistically significant impact on economic growth.…”

“…For instance, Sekantsi and Okot (2016) in Uganda, Tursoy and Resatoglu (2016) in Russia founds bidirectional relationship, Aboagye (2017) in Ghana reported a valid long-term nexus, Khan et al (2018) in Kazakhstan, Magazzino (2018) in Italy, Inuwa et al (2019) in Economic Community of Western African States and Singh and Vashishtha (2020) in India also had reported different results.…”
