“…The environment degradation–economic growth–energy consumption nexus has long attracted the attention of numerous scholars (Acheampong, 2018; Khan et al, 2020; Mohsin et al, 2021; Mujtaba et al, 2022; Safitri et al, 2022; Vo & Vo, 2021). This section reviews the environment–energy–growth linkage briefly and then sheds light on the importance of urbanization and financial development in this linkage.…”

“…The empirical results indicate that the ecological footprint is significantly impacted by economic growth, trade openness and non-renewable energy consumption. Likewise, Safitri et al (2022) also shed light on this important topic for the ASEAN countries using ecological footprint as a proxy for environmental degradation. The results show that the ecological environments of the ASEAN countries are positively correlated with fossil fuels consumption, electric power, energy imports and economic expansion.…”

Renewable Energy, Urbanization, Financial Development and Environmental Degradation in the ASEAN Countries

The ASEAN countries have increasingly become a new economic force in the global economy. Economic growth and development have significantly improved living standards. However, environmental degradation in the region has been significantly deteriorating. This study examines the long-term effects of renewable energy consumption, urbanization and financial development on environmental degradation in ASEAN countries from 1995 to 2020. Various econometric techniques are used, including the fully modified OLS, dynamic OLS, canonical cointegration regression and Ganger’s causality relationship. The empirical results indicate that increased renewable energy consumption and extended urbanization reduce environmental degradation. However, economic growth and financial development lead to increased environmental degradation. Granger’s causality relationship analysis confirms a bidirectional linkage between renewable energy consumption and urbanization, urbanization and financial development, and urbanization and environmental degradation. Financial development and urbanization also have a bidirectional causality relationship with economic growth. Finally, the results confirm a unilateral causality relationship between environmental degradation financial development and urbanization. The governments of the ASEAN countries will need to consider the significant roles of renewable energy usage and urbanization in their policies in achieving sustainable economic growth and development and improving environmental quality.

“…Some studies have explored the consequences of using carbon tax revenue for investment capacity-building in all sectors, or specifically in the clean energy sector, as well as transferring it to households to improve income distribution [22]. In ASEAN, research results show that there is a significant positive correlation between fossil fuel energy use, electricity use, energy import and economic growth and carbon (CO 2 ) emissions, and it has an impact on the ecological environment of ASEAN countries [23]. The results show that even if there is no clear climate policy, taking into account resource efficiency, the preference for sustainable production methods and investment in human development, the year 2100 may be more conducive to a renewable energy supply, less land use and lower anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions than 2010 is [24].…”

Measurement and Spatial-Temporal Characteristics of Inclusive Green Growth in China

In the context of the widely recognized concept of inclusive green growth, it is of great practical significance to study the measurement of inclusive green growth, its temporal characteristics and its spatial heterogeneity. However, it should be noted that most existing studies only consider the situation of China when constructing inclusive green growth indices, and such studies lack international comparators. The index selection dimension is relatively single, and the temporal characteristics and spatial heterogeneity are rarely studied simultaneously. In this study, a spatial correlation analysis method is introduced, and the time series characteristics and spatial heterogeneity of inclusive green growth are deeply analyzed by means of a Moran’ I and LISA agglomeration diagram. The results show that: (1) Economic development, fair opportunity, green production and consumption and ecological environment protection are important factors affecting the level of inclusive green growth, but their development is not balanced; (2) Inclusive green growth has obvious time series characteristics, but there are great differences between provinces and regions; (3) The inclusive green growth has significant spatial heterogeneity. From 2010 to 2019, the inclusive green growth level has a dynamic evolution process. Moran’s I Index Global Spatial Test results show that inclusive green growth has obvious spatial autocorrelation, that is, it has great spatial differences. Local spatial test results also show that the inclusive green growth in China has obvious spatial aggregation characteristics. Therefore, it is important to coordinate the development of inclusive green growth between provinces and regions and improve the overall level of inclusive green growth in the future.

“…Moreover, for a panel of 25 selected African countries, Zoundi (2017) concluded that carbon emissions are found to increase with income per capita. Again, using the PMG ARDL and FEM to investigate the impact of energy consumption and economic growth on the ecological environment of ASEAN countries over the period 1989-2019, Safitri et al (2022) concluded that economic growth has a positive impact on carbon emissions and affects the ecological environment of ASEAN countries.…”

Purpose While there are enormous studies on the determinants of environmental degradation, empirical studies on the effect of renewable energy consumption and economic growth on the environment remain limited. The purpose of this paper is to examine the asymmetric effect of renewable energy consumption and economic growth on environmental degradation in 31 selected sub-Saharan African countries spanning from 1990 to 2018. Design/methodology/approach To examine possible asymmetric effects of the exogenous variables on environmental degradation, we used the panel nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag approach and secondary data was sourced from the World Bank (2021). Findings The cointegration test results suggest that there is a long-run cointegration among the variables whereas our main findings indicate that environmental degradation responds asymmetrically to changes in renewable energy consumption and economic growth. The results further reveal that both positive and negative shocks in renewable energy consumption reduce environmental degradation. On the other hand, positive and negative shocks in economic growth increase environmental degradation in the long run. Research limitations/implications The implications of this study include the need for policymakers in sub-Saharan Africa to encourage the utilization of renewable energy as it reduces environmental degradation. Also, governments in the subregion should gradually replace the usage of fossil fuels by adapting renewable energy sources so as to achieve higher economic growth. Originality/value The positive and negative shocks of renewable energy consumption and economic growth on environmental degradation are examined to ascertain their asymmetric relationships.
