Impact of Renewable Energy on Economic Growth and CO2 Emissions-Evidence from BRICS Countries

Qinghua Fu et al.

Summary: The signing of the Kyoto Protocol in 1997 reignited global focus on renewable energy resources, leading to significant progress in production and consumption worldwide. Developing countries, including BRICS, are also endorsing renewable energy as a vital engine of economic growth and societal development. The study explores the relationship between renewable energy use and economic growth in BRICS countries using various econometric models, indicating a bidirectional relationship with GDP and a unidirectional causality relationship with CO2 emissions. This suggests that the increase in CO2 emissions is a major concern for BRICS countries, prompting them to increase renewable energy production and policymakers are recommended to encourage its use through financial incentives.
