This paper examines the relationship among real GDP, CO2 emissions, and energy use in the six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. Using annual data for the years 1960-2013, stationarity, structural breaks, and cointegration tests have been conducted. The empirical evidence strongly...

The scope of the paper is to investigate the relationship among economic growth, carbon dioxide emissions and energy use for the South Caucasus area and Turkey in the 1992-2013 years. We estimate a 3-variable Vector Auto Regressions using a panel VAR technique. Empirical results show that the...

This study examines the relationship between CO2 emissions, energy consumption and economic growth in Italy over the period 1970-2006. Results of unit root tests show that all variables are non-stationary in their level form, but stationary in first differences form. The causal relationship...

The article explores the nexus between carbon dioxide emissions, economic growth, and energy use for 10 Middle East countries over the period 1971–2006. We use a panel VAR technique for the empirical analysis. The three-variable VAR estimate shows that for the six GCC countries the response of...

The paper aims to study the relationship between energy use and GDP in the period 1971-2007 for Israel with a time-series approach. Stationarity and unit root tests reveal that both series are non-stationary, or I(1). Moreover, since both series show the presence of a structural break, the...

This paper analyses the relationship among economic growth, energy use and carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions in Israel over the period 1971-2006. Results of unit root tests show that all variables are integrated of order one. Causality results suggest that real gross domestic product (GDP) drives...
