“…Their results show a significant relationship between electricity consumption, economic growth, and technological innovation, which is in line with the applicability of endogenous growth theory to the energy sector. Fei et al economic growth and energy pollution (Akbostanci et al, 2009;Jalil and Mahmud, 2009;Narayan and Narayan, 2010;Jaunky 2011), while others focus on the relationship between economic growth, energy use, and environmental degradation (Soytas et al, 2007;Ang 2007Ang , 2008; Apergis and Payne, 2009;Sadorsky, 2009;Apergis et al, 2010;Hatzigeorgiou et al, 2011;Hamit-Haggar, 2012;Ozcan, 2013). Numerous studies also indicate that energy use is the main contributor to carbon emissions (Shahbaz et al, 2013a, b, c, d;Al-Mulali et al, 2015;Dogan and Turkekul, 2016).…”

“…Numerous studies incorporate trade openness in the relationships among environmental pollution, economic growth, and energy use (Ang, 2007;Apergis and Payne, 2009;Acaravci and Ozturk, 2010;Nasir and Rehman, 2011;Jayanthakumaran et al 2012;Kasman and Duman, 2015;Dogan and Turkekul 2016). Trade openness effects have been linked with output, non-renewable energy use, and pollutant emissions, and they are considered an effective determinant of carbon emissions (Esty, 2001;Mukhopadhyay, 2009).…”

This study explores the relationship between economic growth and CO2 emissions in the so-called European Union 5 (EU-5) countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom) for the 1985-2016 period. In doing so, we employ a carbon emission function to investigate the environmental Kuznets curve phenomenon, which describes a relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation. The empirical results confirm the existence of an N-shaped relationship between economic growth and CO2 emissions in the EU-5 countries. We incorporate additional variables such as renewable electricity consumption, trade openness, natural resource abundance, and energy innovation to augment the carbon emission function. Renewable electricity consumption, natural resources, and energy innovation improve environmental quality, while trade openness and the interaction between economic growth and renewable electricity consumption exert a positive impact on CO2 emissions. This study is novel in that it presents an interaction between economic growth and renewable electricity consumption. We also confirm the need for renewable energy regulations related to increasing renewable sources and promoting energy innovation to reduce the negative effects of energy and fossil energy resources on environmental degradation.

“…The existing literature has been dominated by a discussion of the relationship between environmental pollution and economic growth, with a fundamental emphasis on the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis (see Akbostanci et al, 2009;Diao et al, 2009;He & Richard, 2010) 1 . Existing literature also considers the nexus between economic growth, environmental pollution and energy consumption (Jumbe, 2004;Ang, 2007;Odhiambo, 2009aOdhiambo, , 2009bApergis & Payne, 2009;Menyah & Wolde-Rufael, 2010;Ozturk & Acaravci, 2010;Bölük & Mehmet, 2015;Begum et al, 2015) and connections between energy consumption and economic growth (Mehrara, 2007;Esso, 2010).…”

(ii) ICT interacts with CO 2 intensity to negatively affect inclusive human development and (iii) the net effect on inclusive human development is positive from the complementarity between mobile phones and CO 2 emissions per capita. Conversely, we also establish evidence of net negative effects. Fortunately, the corresponding ICT thresholds at which these net negative effects can be completely dampened are within policy range, notably: 50 (per 100 people) mobile phone penetration for CO 2 emissions from liquid fuel consumption and CO 2 intensity.Theoretical and policy implications are discussed.

“…Notable among these studies are (Stern and Cleveland, 2004;Sahir and Qureshi, 2007;Apergis and Payne, 2009;Apergis and Payne, 2010;Zaleski, 2014;Soytas et al, 2015) etc. Vast literature has written extensively on the relationship between energy consumption and economic growth.…”

Article HistoryThe relationship among CO2 emission, Economic Growth and Energy Consumption were examine in this study. This study specifically examines the combine impact CO2 emission, and Economic Growth on Energy Consumption. The study uses a dynamic panel data of esteem the time series analysis on 1980. Our result shows that Economic Growth is positively related to Energy Consumption. But when CO2 emission is interacted with Economic Growth the combine impact is increasing in energy consumption. The study therefore recommend that appropriate policy should formulated by the government to drive up energy consumption.Contribution/ Originality: The paper contributes the first logical analysis in the existing literature of the relationship between Co2 emission, economic growth and energy consumption. The study departs from other studies by examining the combined impact of Co2 emission and economic growth on energy consumption in SubSaharan African countries during the period of the study. There is also robust use of system GMM developed by Arellano and Bond (1991) which gave consistent and efficient estimates.
