Also, energy intensity flows must be kept up more closely since the empirical results point out its substantially positive contribution in terms of air pollution Therefore, policy implications should be strengthened towards more installation of renewable energy and a convergence of environmental policies towards more efficient energy use among EU countries. Energy intensity flows must be kept up more closely since the empirical results point out its substantially positive contribution in terms of air pollution.
