Bu çalışmada elektrik tüketimi, karbon emisyonu ve ekonomik büyüme arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir. Çalışmada 1995-2014 aralığında karbon emisyonu dünya ortalamasının üzerinde olan ülkeler kullanılarak Panel Vektör Otoregresif (VAR) tekniğiyle analiz yapılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre karbon emisyonu ve enerji tüketimi arasında negatif ve anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu bulunmuştur. Bu sonuca göre seçilen ülkelerde elektrik tüketiminde yaşanan bir gelişmeyle karbon emisyonları etkilenecektir. Yapılan nedensellik testi sonuçlarına göre elektrik tüketiminde yaşanacak gelişmeler CO2 emisyonları üzerinde etkili olacaktır. Yani elektrik tüketiminden CO2 emisyonlarına doğru tek yönlü nedensellik ilişkisi bulunmuştur. Elektrik tüketimi CO2 emisyonuna neden oluyorsa, ülkeler ekonomik büyümeyi olumsuz etkilemeden emisyonları azaltmak için elektrik verimliliğini artırmaya yönelik yatırımlara ağırlık vermelidirler.
This study examined the relationship between electricity consumption, carbon emissions and economic growth. The study was analyzed using the Panel Vector Otoregressive (VAR) technique using countries with carbon emissions above the world average in the period 1995-2014. The results showed that there was a negative and meaningful relationship between carbon emissions and energy consumption. According to this conclusion, an increase in electricity consumption in selected countries will affect carbon emissions. According to the results of the causality test, the developments in electricity consumption will be effective on CO2 emissions. There is a one-way causal relationship between electricity consumption and CO2 emissions. If electricity consumption leads to CO2 emissions, countries should emphasize investments to improve electricity efficiency to reduce emissions without negatively affecting economic growth.
This study, the relationship between electricity consumption, carbon emission and economic growth is investigated. In the study, by using countries with carbon emissions above the world average in the period of 1995-2014, Panel Vector Autoregressive (VAR) technique was used. According to the results obtained from the panel VAR analysis, it was found that there was a negative and significant relationship between carbon emission and energy consumption. In addition, according to the results obtained from the causality test conducted in the study, one-way causality relationship was found between electricity consumption and CO2 emissions. According to these results, it can be interpreted that an improvement in electricity consumption in selected countries may affect carbon emissions. The countries involved should support investments in order to reduce emissions, do not adversely affect their economic growth and develop policies to ensure energy efficiency.
