Küresel ısınma en önemli çevre sorunlarının başında gelmektedir. Küresel ısınmanın temel nedenlerinden birisi, fosil yakıt kullanımı neticesinde oluşan CO2 emisyonudur. Hem bu soruna çözüm getirmek hem de enerji kaynaklarının kısıtlı olması, toplumları fosil yakıt kullanımına alternatif olabilecek enerji kaynaklarını kullanmaya yöneltmiştir. Bu durum ise yenilenebilir enerjilerin CO2 emisyonu üzerindeki etkilerinin belirlenmesini gündeme getirmiştir.
Global warming is at the forefront of environmental problems. One of the main causes of global warming is CO2 emissions resulting from the use of fossil fuels. Both bringing solutions to this problem and the limited energy resources have directed communities to use energy sources that can be alternative to the use of fossil fuels. This has led to the determination of the effects of renewable energies on CO2 emissions.
Global warming is the most important environmental problems. The most important reason for global warming is the CO2 emission resulting from the use of fossil fuels. Both the solution to this problem and the limited resources of energy have led the societies to use the energies that could be an alternative to the use of fossil fuels. This situation necessitated the determination of the effects of renewable energies on CO2 emissions. In this paper, the relationship between the carbon dioxide (CO2) emission of hydroelectric energy use, which is one of the renewable energy source, has been examined for USA. Morlet wavelet coherence model which is one of the wavelet coherence methods has been used as the method of analysis. In the analysis, hydroelectric energy consumption, total biomass energy consumption, industrial production index, total fossil fuel consumption, nuclear energy consumption and total CO2 emission were preferred as variables. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that the use of hydroelectricity (while TBiomass, TFossil, Nuclear and IP were control variable) decreased the CO2 emission in the 1 ~ 3 frequency band, 2015: 1-2015: 12 period. In this context, it is foreseen that more efficient production can be achieved from hydroelectric energy in terms of CO2 emission.
