“…In a sample of 125 nations, Demiral and Demiral [ 11 ] examined the impact of productive capacities and their sub-components on energy efficiency. These elements include "human capital, transportation, information and communication technology, institutions, the private sector, and structural change".…”

The question of whether productive capacities and institutional quality facilitate or impede progress towards sustainable development is a significant issue that has not been extensively explored in prior literature. Despite their importance, these variables are often overlooked in the literature on sustainable development, yet they play a crucial role in enabling efforts to achieve sustainable development. In this study, we examined how productive capacities affect sustainable development, with a moderating impact of institutional quality. The sample was comprised of 44 Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) economies, covering the period from 2000 to 2018. Using a two-step system GMM, we found that the relation between productive capacities and sustainable development is dynamic, positive, and significant. Additionally, institutional quality played a moderating role in achieving sustainable development, especially among regionally connected countries. Our findings suggest that sustainable development is strongly linked to a country’s productive capacities. Therefore, improving productive capacities and institutional quality may lead to long-term development and sustainability. These results are valuable to academia as they provide new thought regarding the influence of productive capacities and institutional quality on sustainable development, and policymakers may benefit from the suggestions presented regarding productive capacities and institutional quality.

Socioeconomic Productive Capacity and Renewable Energy Development: Empirical Insights from BRICS

Due to the depletion of fossil fuels, empirics began looking at the factors that might encourage investment in renewable energy. Socioeconomic productivity can encourage renewable energy development by encouraging authorities, businesses, and families to rely more on renewable energy sources. Therefore, this analysis is the first-ever effort to detect the impact of socioeconomic productivity on renewable energy development. We have used the panel ARDL and QARDL to examine the estimates. The results of the panel ARDL model predict that national income, financial development, productive capacity index, human capital, ICT, institutional quality, and structural changes are beneficial for renewable energy development in the long run. In the short run, only financial development, productive capacity index, human capital, and ICT promote renewable energy development. Likewise, the panel QARDL model estimates that the national income, financial development, and productive capacity index promote renewable energy development in the long run. However, in the short run, only the productive capacity index and financial development promote renewable energy development. Therefore, by integrating productive assets, entrepreneurial skills, and industrial connections, policymakers must work to boost the productive socioeconomic potential.

“…Effective governance and institutional strength are essential for steering economic activity toward environmental sustainability, with research by Awad (2022), Du et al (2022), Hadj et al (2023), andSahoo et al (2023) highlighting the role of policy and regulation in promoting sustainable practices. The involvement of the private sector in environmental quality, as discussed by Aldieri et al (2020) and Demiral and Demiral (2023), illustrates both the opportunities and challenges of integrating sustainability into business operations.…”

This study examines the complex relation among environmental taxes, productive capacities, urbanization, and their collective effects on environmental quality in Africa, drawing on two decades of data from twenty African countries. It situates the study within the broader discourse on sustainable development and economic growth, emphasizing the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) framework to examine the relationship between economic development, characterized by urban expansion and increased productive capacities, and the adoption of environmental taxes amidst the continent’s diverse economic and environmental environments. Using advanced econometric techniques, including the Cross-Section Augmented Autoregressive Distributed Lag (CS-ARDL) model and the Dynamic Common Correlated Effects Mean Group (DCCEMG) estimator, the study addresses data challenges such as cross-sectional dependence and slope heterogeneity. The results provide important insights into the dynamics of environmental quality in relation to economic and urban growth and the role of environmental taxation. The study proposes tailored policy strategies aimed at strengthening sustainable development initiatives in line with international agreements such as the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals. These strategies advocate for a nuanced application of environmental taxes and the promotion of productive capacities to enhance environmental sustainability across the African continent.
