Renewable Energy Consumption and Carbon Emissions: Evidence from an Oil-Rich Economy by Shahriyar Mukhtarov (19325662)

“…The results reveal that renewable energy consumption has a negative impact on CO₂ emissions, while real GDP per capita has a positive effect. According to the findings, a 1% increase in renewable energy consumption leads to a 0.26% decrease in consumption-based CO₂ emissions, while a 1% rise in real GDP per capita leads to a 0.46% rise in consumption-based CO₂ emissions. …”
