We construct the world's centers of gravity for human population, GDP and CO2 emissions by taking the best out of five recognized data sources covering the last two centuries. We also propose a more appropriate two-map representation of the location of the center of gravity, which abstracts from...

The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship among economic growth, carbon dioxide emissions, and energy use for 19 APEC countries over the 1960–2013 years. Using a panel VAR technique, a three-variable VAR is estimated. Empirical findings illustrate that no causal relationship emerges...

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 relationships among information communications technology (ICT), CO2 emissions and economic growth. The panel annual data is constructed from 1991 to 2009 for nine members from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). The paper examines the long-run equilibrium...

We apply a panel vector autoregressive model (PVAR) to assess the relationship between renewable energy, coal, oil and natural gas consumption, carbon dioxide emissions, crude oil prices, and economic growth. The sample contains 15 countries from 1990 to 2019. Granger causality tests demonstrate...

The increased concerns about climate change have made renewable energy sources an important topic of research. Several scholars have applied different methodologies to examine the relationships between energy consumption and economic growth of individual and groups of countries and to analyze...

The efficiency effects of carbon pricing depend on how it impacts distortions in fossil fuel markets, most notably from local air pollution externalities. By offsetting these distortions, carbon pricing may generate significant net economic benefits, so it is in countries own interests to...

I estimate the level of emissions cost pass-through to hourly wholesale electricity prices in Germany, based on spot market data. I control for contemporaneous shocks to demand and supply by constructing a detailed supply curve for fossil generation, and intersecting it with residual demand for...
