“…Thus, this partially confirms the findings from Gardiner and Hajek (2020) supporting the existence of bidirectional causality between municipal waste generation and R&D intensity in Europe. Furthermore, it turns out to be in line with Sim (2018), who developed a system dynamic model to capture the R&D investment values of renewable energy in Korea. Accordingly, our time-series result failed to depict the causal effect of innovation in environment-related technologies on the efficiency of waste disposal operations in Korea.…”

The aim of this paper is to assess the causal relationship among innovation in environment-related technologies, per capita income, and three major waste disposal operations (landfill, recycling, and incineration) for Korea. A time-series analysis over the frequency domain (Breitung–Candelon Spectral Granger causality) is applied, followed by Artificial Neural Networks experiments over the 1985–2016 period. Empirical results highlight that economic growth is tightly linked both to the growth of recycled waste and to the increase of environment-related innovations. Findings also highlight that waste recycling operations can spur the level of economic activity.

“…Doytch and Narayan (2021) assert that the growth of the economy is boosted by the use of renewable energy. In South Korea, investment in the production of renewable power has both economic and environmental benefits, according to Sim (2018) and Shan et al (2021) considering the effect of green sector development and renewable energy in Turkey's drive for emissions reduction. Renewable energy, energy use, population growth, and per income per capita are all interconnected in the long run.…”

The last few years have witnessed an explosion of research on Sustainable development. Most of this research is concentrated on the developed countries related to the issues not compatible with developing countries. This paper fills the gap and reviews the literature related to developing and emerging economies and their environmental and social constraints under Renewable energy and sustainable development (RESD). It also investigates how RESD can be implemented in the presence of serious issues pertaining to population increase, shortage of energy supply, lack of transportation, shortage of clean water, less food production and bad environmental systems and these are coupled with war, and hunger and political instability. The main contribution of this paper is to present extensive discussion in the context of hypotheses of economic growth and its association with energy consumption, and renewable energy options for sustainable development.

European Union countries signed the 2030 Climate and Energy Framework Agreement on October 24, 2014. This framework brings with it changes in the expectations of energy consumers and producers that has opened new avenues of research. Because the 2030 Agreement imposed targets to be achieved by 2030, energy companies could increase their R&D expenditures as they search for increased efficiency through a reduction of carbon dioxide emissions and stronger base in renewable sources that promotes innovation. In addition, the risks that arise from climate change can compromise the successful achievement of the targets, such as 27% renewable energy consumption, reduction in emissions of carbon dioxide by at least 40% and to improve energy efficiency. In this study, I conduct an evaluation of the behavior of R&D intensity in this sector. It analyze the behavior of companies related to the electricity sector in two different moments, before and after the 2030 Agreement, by using panel data and comparing the listed companies with headquarters in European Union countries with companies headquartered elsewhere in Europe. The results show that the 2030 Agreement had no effect on R&D intensity in companies in the electricity sector in the countries of the European Union.
