This paper investigates the dynamics between financial development, governance quality, renewable energy consumption, urbanization, oil prices, and environmental quality in 123 selected countries during the period 1990-2017. In particular, we examine the conditional effect of governance quality...

Purpose – The paper aims to fill the gap on energy and growth literature for Mongolia. The high growth rate over last decade has substantially increased the energy demand and as a result has increased the carbon-dioxide (CO2) emission. This observed emission trend has possible negative...

Researchers have suggested that the relationship between the emission of carbon dioxide per capita and the real gross domestic product per capita follows an inverted-U-shaped (so-called environmental Kuznets) curve. Studies have generally used polynomial regression (quadratic or cubic form) to...
