The aims of study are to reveal that how renewable energy consumption impacts on the GHG emissions and test the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis for Turkey. For this purposes, series of CO2 emissions, GDP and electricity generated using renawebles between 1960 and 2013 are used. The unit root tests with structural breaks have been performed and cointegration tests have been used. Finally, DOLS estimation method has been used to find out long run relationship. Model results show that renewable electricity production has negative and significant effects on the carbon emmissions and results supported the validity of Environmenal Kuznets Curve hypothesis for Turkey.
