    Renewable electricity consumption and economic growth: a cross-income panel ARDL analysis with implications for energy transition
    (İstanbul Okan Üniversitesi, 2025-06-02) Brown, Mustapha Abekah; Taşbaşı, Aslı
    The transition to renewable energy and the corresponding use of electricity generated from renewable sources is an inevitable solution that must be adopted to mitigate the effects of the climate crisis. The extant literature on the energy-economic growth nexus present mixed findings – some studies suggest the existence of a relationship while others find no significant relationship. Nevertheless, a growing number of recent studies provide evidence of an existing relationship. This study employs the panel ARDL techniques PMG, MG and DFE to investigate the short-run and long-run dynamics between renewable electricty consumption (RELC) and economic growth over the period 2000-2022 across 48 countries classified by income level. The results clearly indicate that the use of green electricity has a positive effect on economic growth across all income levels, albeit with varying magnitudes. Findings of the study provide particularly encouraging empirical evidence for a green transition in developing countries, underscoring the need for more attention to the unique challenges and opportunities faced by these economies.

    Economic dynamics of air pollution in Türkiye and Pakistan: an empirical assessment of the Environmental Kuznets Curve and pollution-led growth
    (IGI Global, 2026) Taşbaşı, Aslı; Akhtar, Maham
    Türkiye and Pakistan, despite differing levels of economic development, face similar macroeconomic challenges such as income inequality, inflation and debt. Both countries also experience environmental pressures from industrialization and rapid urbanization, with air pollution emerging as a critical concern affecting economic productivity and sustainable development. This study conducts a comparative analysis of air pollution in Türkiye and Pakistan from 1980 to 2023, using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) bounds testing approach to examine the short and long run relationships between air pollution, urbanization, industrialization, energy consumption and macroeconomic policies. The analysis tests the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) for Türkiye and the pollution-led growth hypothesis for Pakistan. Findings reject the EKC for Türkiye but confirm pollution-led growth in Pakistan, offering insights for effective environmental regulation and sustainable development strategies.
