“…In existing literature, numerous studies have used foreign direct investment (FDI) as a measure of foreign capital inflows while investigating the foreign capital inflows-energy consumption nexus. For example, Mielnik and Goldemberg (2002), Chima (2007), Hubler (2009), Zheng et al (2011), Erdem (2012), Elliott et al (2013) reported that FDI is negatively linked with energy consumption. On contrarily, a positive impact of FDI on energy consumption is confirmed by Sultan (2012), Tang and Tan (2014), Omri and Kahouli (2013) and Leitão, (2015).…”

This study investigates the relationship between foreign capital inflows and energy consumption by incorporating economic growth, exports and currency devaluation in energy demand function for the case of Pakistan. The long-run and short-run effects are examined via ARDL bounds testing procedure. Foreign capital inflows and currency devaluation (economic growth and exports) decrease (increase) energy consumption in long-run. The results confirm a feedback effect between foreign capital inflows and energy consumption. These findings would be helpful to policy makers in designing comprehensive economic and energy policies for utilizing foreign capital inflows as a tool for optimal use of energy sources to enhance economic development in long run.

“…For a long time, the Chinese government has been vigorously attracting foreign investment: diverting foreign funds to develop manufacturing, and absorbing production technology and management experience of foreign-funded enterprises. Erdem [26] also confirmed that the technology diffusion effect of FDI can improve the energy efficiency of enterprises in host country.…”

As the largest manufacturer in the world, China has attracted much attention in the green transformation of manufacturing. This paper firstly designs an evaluation index system (EIS) of green total factor manufacturing energy efficiency (GTFMEE), which covers the three industrial wastes as the undesired output. Based on the EIS, the directional distance function (DDF) was adopted to measure the GTFMEEs of 30 provincial administrative regions (provinces) in China from 2010 to 2017. Then, the Tobit model was introduced to empirically analyze the driving factors of the GTFMEE. The results show that: The different provinces varied significantly in GTFME; the high GTFMEE provinces concentrated in the eastern coastal area, while most inland provinces had undesirable GTFMEEs. The eastern, central, and western regions exhibited different dynamic trends of GTFMEE; the eastern region had much higher GTFMEE than the central and western regions. The GTFMEE has a significant positive correlation with economic growth, technological progress, and opening-up, a significant negative correlation with energy structure, and urbanization level, and an insignificant correlation with human potential.

“…On the other hand, former researches focused more on the sensitivity of the economic growth to the energy consumption and how the Foreign Direct Investment could be involved in it (Mielnik and Goldemberg 2002) [29] and (Saidi, and Hammami 2014) [22]. After analyzing the causality between the impact of FDI and the energy exchange of a country, some researches such as Chima (2007) [7], Hai (2009) [17], Hubler (2009) [18], Zheng, Qi, and Chen (2011) [49], Lee (2013) [25] and Erdem (2012) [12] confirmed that a negative relationship relates the Foreign Direct Investment to the energy consumption. In other words, the FDI appeared was not related to an excessive energy practice.…”

This paper aims at analyzing the short and long run relationships between energy consumption and foreign capital inflows. This relationship is investigated after studying the impact of the three main variables: the economic growth, the export and the currency devaluation on the energy consumption, for Tunisia during the period 1971–2020. The ARDL bound testing approach is used in the presence of structural breaks in order to test the different interrelationships. Our preliminary results show that a long-run relationship exists between the above-mentioned variables. The performed causal analysis led to conclude that a bidirectional effect exists between foreign capital inflows and energy consumption, between energy consumption and the economic growth, and between foreign capital inflows and the economic growth. Thus, the resulting suggestion of this paper concern the Tunisian energy industry and encourages the possible change within its policies stressing the importance of the role of foreign capital inflows in reducing the energy consumption in Tunisia.
