This scientific research is devoted to the analysis of the impact of the development of the energy industry on economic growth in Kazakhstan. The work assesses the economic development of the country using the example of a comparative analysis of the state of the GDP level from 2011 to 2023. Particular emphasis is placed on increasing industrial production of finished goods. It stands out here that to ensure economic growth, the rapid pace of development of the domestic energy sector is not enough. The study emphasizes that electricity generation mainly comes from thermal power plants using coal. There is a high level of equipment depreciation and wear and tear, which leads to significant harmful emissions, delivery losses and a decline in electricity generation. Some attention is paid to intensifying the construction of renewable energy sources. Here, an economic and mathematical model was built and forecasting was implemented in order to determine the factors affecting the growth of electricity generation in Kazakhstan. To solve energy shortage issues and achieve economic growth, an investment mechanism is proposed using the example of PPP infrastructure energy projects. In order to enhance the influx of investment in the reconstruction and construction of new Kazakh energy facilities, mutually beneficial cooperation between the state and business within the framework of PPP approaches is justified. Key problems are identified and measures for economic growth and stimulation of development of the energy complex are proposed. It is recommended to intensify investments in the construction of nuclear power plants, new renewable energy facilities and innovative power plants.

Environmental concerns need to be addressed to make economic growth sustainable. Theories in the literature attempt to establish the relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation. These theories are not deterministic, as concepts like the inverted U-shaped or N-shaped Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) have yielded different results for different economies. This study attempts to validate the shape of the EKC and simultaneously test for an asymmetric relationship between economic growth and carbon dioxide emissions. To achieve this, the study uses the simple and non-linear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) method on data from 1965 to 2021. The study finds evidence of an inverted U-shaped EKC but finds no evidence of an N-shaped EKC for India. Additionally, the study reports an asymmetric relationship between economic growth, energy consumption, and carbon dioxide emissions. Based on these findings, the study provides suitable policy recommendations.
要使经济增长具有可持续性,就必须解决环境问题。文献中的理论试图确定经济增长与环境退化之间的关系。这些理论并不是决定性的,因为倒 U 型或 N 型环境库兹涅茨曲线(EKC)等概念对不同的经济体产生了不同的结果。本研究试图验证环境库兹涅茨曲线的形状,同时检验经济增长与二氧化碳排放之间是否存在非对称关系。为此,本研究使用简单的非线性自回归分布滞后(ARDL)方法对 1965 年至 2021 年的数据进行了检验。研究发现了印度存在倒 U 型 EKC 的证据,但没有发现 N 型 EKC 的证据。此外,研究还报告了经济增长、能源消耗和二氧化碳排放之间的非对称关系。基于这些发现,研究提出了适当的政策建议。

With the characteristic of natural gas as a clean, non-toxic, and valuable energy source, its use has been increasing in recent years. Thus, maintaining stable natural gas security requires a reliable long-step price forecasting indicator with less error. We propose a hybrid theory of Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) with Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to perform multi-step forecasting focusing on 30 to 90 steps of the daily Henry Hub natural gas price as a dataset. Using four widespread error measurements, the proposed model provides excellent results compared to no-decomposition as the benchmark model. The proposed model provides 50% lower error results than the single LSTM. EEMD_LSTM brings values below 10 in the MAPE indicator, even up to 90-step prediction. The Diebold-Mariano test also confirms that EEMD_LSTM outperforms the single LSTM on every step with the majority of 90% confidence level. We also simulated the model by analysing the box and whiskers plot of RMSE, which shows that the variance of predicted values ranges between 1.11%. These results show that the proposed forecasting model provides robust results for the case of medium-term natural gas prices with excellent forecasting results.

In the African context, achieving sustainable development while fostering economic growth and environmental conservation presents a formidable challenge. This article employs Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to assess the environmental efficiency of 34 African countries from 2013 to 2022. Using key economic indicators such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), Logistics Performance Index (LPI), and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) relative to CO2 emissions, the study evaluates the ability of African nations to optimize economic output while minimizing environmental impact. The analysis reveals significant heterogeneity in environmental efficiency levels among countries, with some demonstrating high efficiency, while others exhibit room for improvement. Factors such as FDI, LPI, and GDP play pivotal roles in shaping environmental outcomes, highlighting the need for sustainable investment practices and infrastructure development. Peer comparison and output slack analysis provide further insights, identifying opportunities for enhancing efficiency and promoting sustainable growth. Case studies of South Africa, Mali, and Zambia underscore varying degrees of environmental efficiency and offer valuable lessons for sustainable development across the continent. Overall, the findings contribute to a deeper understanding of environmental efficiency in Africa and provide a roadmap for policymakers to pursue greener and more inclusive development trajectories.

This study aims to identify trends in the role of coal and solar energy consumption on climate change through existing and forecasting analysis as new evidence for the sustainable development goals launched by 2030. This research targets countries in the Asia Pacific, especially coal exporters (Indonesia and Australia) and coal importers (China). The basic model uses panel regression as the existing condition, which covers the period 2008-2023. Meanwhile, the forecasting analysis uses the ARIMA method, which covers the period 2024-2030. The findings of existing conditions include coal energy consumption contributing to increasing climate change. Meanwhile, solar energy consumption can reduce climate change. Furthermore, the forecast findings on average are climate change conditions of 5.237 million tons and coal energy consumption of 33,830 exajoules, but on average the annual growth rate is relatively small (0.91 percent for climate change and 1.46 percent for coal energy consumption). Meanwhile, solar energy has also increased with a small quantity of 2.40 exajoules, but the growth rate is relatively high (29.61 percent). This research recommends that the government massively increase the transition of clean energy consumption towards solar so that the mix can dominate for greater reductions in climate change in achieving sustainable development goals.

The advent of climate change has evolved into a paramount challenge for humanity, prompting extensive endeavors to mitigate its consequences. This research delves into the influence between gross capital formation (GCF) and carbon dioxide emissions in Somalia, spanning the years 1991-2019. To scrutinize the long-term associations among the variables under consideration, the study employed autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model. Additionally, to ensure the robustness of the study, both dynamic ordinary least squares and fully modified ordinary least squares were applied. Contrary to expectations, the findings indicate that GCF does not exert a significant influence on carbon dioxide emissions. The study advocates for the implementation of a comprehensive environmental policy framework that considers a spectrum of contributing factors beyond GCF. To address the multifaceted nature of environmental challenges, the study recommends initiatives such as diversification of energy sources, technology transfer, promotion of sustainable practices, and integration of climate resilience.

In the modern world, emerging economies are examining how technological progression and carbon neutrality goals can encourage sustainable production and consumption. Striving for carbon neutrality requires using energy storage technologies and alternative energy sources. This study investigates Indonesia’s ecological sustainability, focusing on CO2 emissions and air quality index-related smog pollution, with renewable energy adoption, energy storage technology, and environmental innovation as primary influencing factors. The study employed the Quantile Autoregressive Distributed Lag (QARDL) method to explore long-term and short-term correlations between the predictors and the resultant variables. Findings reveal a significant negative correlation between adopting renewable energy (REA), using renewable energy, and EST and CO2 emissions across various quantiles in Indonesia. However, globalization was found to have a positive and significant relationship with CO2 emissions, but this association was only seen at higher quantiles. The long-term analysis revealed that environmental conservation efforts, renewable energy utilization, and environmental taxes could significantly reduce PM2.5 level haze pollution in Indonesia. The QARDL method also supports a negative long-term correlation between REA, ALT, and EST, while globalization is linked to increased CO2 emissions in Indonesia, exacerbating environmental sustainability concerns. In summary, this research concludes that practical innovation, renewable energy consumption, and environmental taxation decrease carbon emissions, while globalization increases them in Indonesia.
在当今世界,新兴经济体正在研究如何通过技术进步和碳中和目标来鼓励可持续生产和消费。努力实现碳中和需要使用能源储存技术和替代能源。本研究调查了印度尼西亚的生态可持续性,重点关注二氧化碳排放量和与空气质量指数相关的烟雾污染,并将可再生能源的采用、储能技术和环境创新作为主要影响因素。研究采用了量子自回归分布滞后法(QARDL)来探讨预测因素与结果变量之间的长期和短期相关性。研究结果表明,在印度尼西亚,采用可再生能源(REA)、使用可再生能源、无害环境技术和二氧化碳排放量在不同量级之间存在明显的负相关。然而,研究发现全球化与二氧化碳排放量之间存在着显著的正相关关系,但这种相关关系只出现在较高的量级上。长期分析表明,环境保护工作、可再生能源利用和环境税可显著降低印尼的 PM2.5 级灰霾污染。QARDL 方法还支持 REA、ALT 和 EST 之间的长期负相关,而全球化与印尼二氧化碳排放量的增加有关,加剧了环境可持续性问题。总之,本研究得出结论:在印尼,实用创新、可再生能源消费和环境税减少了碳排放,而全球化增加了碳排放。

The hypothesis put forth by Porter and Linde (1995) suggests imposing regulation to promote energy efficiency can lead to improved innovation and performance among firms. This study seeks to explore this theoretical premise in the Indian manufacturing sector by analysing the influence of energy intensity on profitability of firms belonging to the Perform Achieve and Trade (PAT) regulated sectors, with a particular focus on classifying technology oriented firms. The study examines seven manufacturing industries from the first cycle of the PAT policy. Two measures of energy intensity indicators, namely the physical economic indicator and the economic indicator, are included in the study. The empirical analysis is divided into two categories: Firms that import technology (714 firms) and firms that do not import technology (752 firms). The study employs panel data analysis with a fixed effect model to conduct the analysis for the time period 2011-2020. Based on empirical analysis, it appears that firms that import technology exhibit a negative relationship between energy intensity and firm performance. Non-technology importing firms exhibit a similar relationship but with a higher coefficient value for energy intensity. The study also includes control variables such as firm size, age, capital intensity, raw material imports, and market concentration. The results show that relatively small to medium-sized firms, which are also young and striving to expand their market size, achieve energy efficiency gains. This highlights the reluctance of established players to improve their performance efficiency through technological up gradation.
波特和林德(Porter and Linde,1995 年)提出的假设表明,实施促进能源效率的法规可以提高企业的创新能力和绩效。本研究试图在印度制造业中探讨这一理论前提,分析能源密集度对属于 "绩效与贸易"(PAT)监管部门的企业盈利能力的影响,尤其侧重于技术导向型企业的分类。研究考察了 PAT 政策第一周期的七个制造业。研究包括两个能源强度指标,即物理经济指标和经济指标。实证分析分为两类:引进技术的企业(714 家)和不引进技术的企业(752 家)。研究采用面板数据分析和固定效应模型,对 2011-2020 年期间进行分析。根据实证分析,进口技术的企业在能源强度和企业绩效之间表现出负相关关系。非技术引进型企业表现出类似的关系,但能源强度的系数值更高。研究还包括企业规模、年龄、资本密集度、原材料进口和市场集中度等控制变量。研究结果表明,中小型企业,同时也是年轻企业,努力扩大市场规模,实现了能源效率的提高。这凸显了老牌企业不愿通过技术升级来提高能效。

This study seeks to explore this theoretical premise in the Indian manufacturing sector by analysing the influence of energy intensity on profitability of firms belonging to the Perform Achieve and Trade (PAT) regulated sectors, with a particular focus on classifying technology oriented firms. The study examines seven manufacturing industries from the first cycle of the PAT policy. Two measures of energy intensity indicators, namely the physical economic indicator and the economic indicator, are included in the study. The empirical analysis is divided into two categories: Firms that import technology (714 firms) and firms that do not import technology (752 firms). The study employs panel data analysis with a fixed effect model to conduct the analysis for the time period 2011-2020. Based on empirical analysis, it appears that firms that import technology exhibit a negative relationship between energy intensity and firm performance. Non-technology importing firms exhibit a similar relationship but with a higher coefficient value for energy intensity. The study also includes control variables such as firm size, age, capital intensity, raw material imports, and market concentration. The results show that relatively small to medium-sized firms, which are also young and striving to expand their market size, achieve energy efficiency gains. This highlights the reluctance of established players to improve their performance efficiency through technological up gradation.\u0000\u0000\u0000","PeriodicalId":38194,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy","volume":" 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141673326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
The study of the interaction between oil price and precious metals occupies a research activity and pushes various economists to seek implications both on the economic and political level. It is also important to take into account the evolution of the oil and precious metals markets throughout the period of the COVID-19 pandemic and recently the Ukraine-Russian war. In this paper, we examine the link between the oil price and three types of precious metals namely gold, silver and platinum using the rolling window Granger bootstrap causality method. The study is conducted on the monthly data of oil price and precious metals from the period span from January, 2004 to May, 2022. The empirical results lead to a strong unidirectional causality between oil and platinum and absence of causality between oil and the other two metals.
