Exploring the asymmetric effects of renewable energy production, natural resources, and economic progress on CO2 emissions: fresh evidence from Pakistan

Moving towards sustainable environmental development for BRICS: Investigating the asymmetric effect of natural resources on CO2

“…Currently, renewable energy sources are addressed to be a possible panacea to solve problems of energy security and environmental sustainability through emission reductions. In fact, renewable energy consumption is pointed to as one of the basic explanatory variables of sustainable environmental quality (Iqbal et al, 2021). In the related literature, although there are numerous papers exploring the relationship between energy utilization and pollutant emissions, there are fewer studies analyzing cleaner energy consumption and sustainable environment (Işık et al, 2019; Sinha et al, 2021; Zafar et al, 2021).…”

“…Currently, renewable energy sources are addressed to be a possible panacea to solve problems of energy security and environmental sustainability through emission reductions. In fact, renewable energy consumption is pointed to as one of the basic explanatory variables of sustainable environmental quality (Iqbal et al, 2021) to represent environmental quality (Ayobamiji et al, 2022;Caglar, 2020;Danish, 2020;Huang et al, 2021;Xiaoman et al, 2021;. There is no consensus in the literature for the effect of natural resources on environmental quality.…”

COP27 perspective of resources management: From conflict to COVID-19 of emerging countries

“…Therefore, these variables are empirically examined in this study. Following the empirical steps of Nathaniel and Adeleye (2021) and Iqbal et al (2022) , this study develops the following model: where the slopes and intercept of the model are denoted via , respectively. While the cross-section (BRICS) and time-span (1989–2021) are depicted via i and t , respectively.…”

“…Further, the study emphasized emission strategies for better environmental quality ( Matar et al, 2023 ). Iqbal et al (2022) assessed the renewable production impact on environmental quality using NARDL analysis. The empirical estimates depicted that renewable production has an asymmetric effect on carbon emissions in Pakistan.…”

Low-Grade Thermal Energy Harvesting and Self-Powered Sensing Based on Thermogalvanic Hydrogels

“…The world has been meeting an ever-increasing electricity demand by burning more fossil fuels since the second Industrial Revolution [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 ]. Therefore, the accelerating consumption of non-renewable resources for energy production has led to an urgent need for increased energy production from renewable resources [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 ]. On the other hand, heat can be considered renewable in that it is ubiquitous and inevitable.…”
