“…It has been empirically tested that technological innovation in the energy sector could help in achieving sustainable environmental conditions with sustainable economic development. These empirical results are aligning with the studies of [33,34]. It is a matter of physical capital and human capital investments and policy, regulatory, R&D, and other stakeholders' support and involvement.…”

During the time before the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are achieved, the international community has set goals to improve people’s lives worldwide. This is in line with the United Nations’ 2030 ambitions to strengthen and advance human society’s sustainable development. Goal number 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy), goal number 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure), and goal number 13 (Climate Action) are highly correlated to each other. The current study investigates the role of human capital and technological innovation in achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs) through a carbon-free energy system. A 19-year dataset covering the years 2000−2018 for the G7 economies has been utilized by using the composite index, Multi-criteria decision analysis, and Quantile Autoregressive Distributed Lag (QARDL) methods. The study’s outcomes indicate that the human capital index and technological innovations contribute positively to SDGs in G7 economies. Both indicators also contribute positively to the carbon-free economy by contributing to carbon-free energy sources. The financial index and energy index results also indicate a positive association with the carbon-free economy in G7 nations. This study suggests policy guidelines for developed as well as for developing economies based on human capital and technological innovation to fulfill the SDGs.

“…Results reveal that the higher the amount of fiscal shelter in these economies, the more significant the deterioration in the environment and the lower it is for SDG achievement. These results are also consistent with (Liao et al, 2019) on the empirical review of Guangdong's province using panels of 21 cities from 2000 to 2016 and (Wen and Dai, 2020) for China's environmental and fiscal imbalances during 1990-2016. Thus, global leaders devoted their resources, time, and money to emphasize the relevance of fiscal imbalance in SDGs.…”

The global community has set intensive targets in Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to better people’s lives after closing the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). It corresponds to the 2030 aspirations of the United Nations to enhance and promote the sustainable development of human society. The current paper explores the impact of fiscal hedging and R&D in energy Using a green-energy system in SDGs. To do this, we used TOPSIS and QARDL methodologies on a 21-year dataset of South and Southeast Asian economies from 2000 to 2020. The study results show that fiscal hedging contributes favourably to the environmental degradation of the underlying economy. Research and development (R&D) in renewables has contributed negatively to ecological degradation and SDGs in the economies of South & Southeast Asia. This study suggests policy guidelines for advanced and developing economies based on fiscal stability and technical innovation through R&D to meet SDG.

“…Based on Ma et al. [ 24 ] and Wen and Dai [ 71 ], environmental regulation E is measured from the effect of environmental regulations, mainly expressed as GDP/pollution emissions, GDP/energy input, etc. Here, GDP/CO 2 is adopted as the indicator of environmental regulations, denoted as ln E_CO 2 , and GDP/comprehensive pollution loss and GDP/energy input are used for the robustness test, denoted as Ln E_pul and ln E_energy respectively.…”
