“…The 13 European developing economies could therefore improve on the level of government effectiveness to boost the attainment of their targets on renewable energy and geothermal power production. This result is supported by the view of Al-Tal and Al-Tarawneh (2021), Evans et al (2021), and Maji and Adamu (2021), who asserted in their studies that geothermal has a good prospect if the emerging good governance could be made sustainable. The implication of this is that when there is an increased level of efficiency and effectiveness in public and civil services, good policy formulation and due implementation, and commitment to the policies is made credible and free of any undue political pressures, the 13 European developing countries will attain growth in their geothermal energy sector (Muhammad and Long, 2021).…”

The European geothermal heating market, at one time dominated by only a handful of countries, is set to experience a purple patch in the coming years as governments scramble to find an affordable alternative to expensive gas-fired heating. The primary focus of this study will be to investigate what effect will worldwide governance factors and economic growth on the geothermal energy output among the 27 European Countries from the time being 1996 to 2021. Using the autoregressive distributed lag, the findings shows that a significant increase in the geothermal energy industry sustainability can occur in European Union 14 (EU14) emerged economies using worldwide governance factors than in EU13 emerging economies. Among additional factors, instability in the political realm, regulatory issues in the area of quality, accountability, and voice-related issues, and the ability to curb corrupt practices contribute more positively to geothermal energy sustainability in EU14 emerged economies than in European Union 13 (EU13) emerging economies. On the other hand, government effectiveness contributes more positively to geothermal energy sustainability in EU13 emerging economies than in EU14 emerged economies. The finding implies that geothermal power sustainability in EU region countries can be significantly increased by mounting the level of worldwide governance determinants to achieve Energy Union aims by 2030. This will finally be spread to combat climate change and environmental pollution. All observations on projected calculations are valid. The confirmation was achieved with the aid of the three estimators used in the study which are the pooled mean group estimator, the mean group estimator, and the third one was dynamic fixed effect approach. This study recommended that these European countries need to put more effort in terms of being effective in worldwide governance indicators which will help in goal attainment at the societal and environmental levels. Those in charge of making laws in the European countries should get more engaged in worldwide governance scopes as this will assist in facilitating the security and sustainability of geothermal energy generation. Those in charge of making policies in the EU countries should as well lay more emphasis on the strategies that could be cointegrated and as well sustainable toward worldwide governance fractionation toward the achievement of the sustainability of geothermal power and this will drastically reduce the need or dependence on fossil fuel and emissions coming from carbon dioxide in the future time.

“…This is supported by [74] who highlighted that time series research is frequently quantitative in nature. Time series analysis is used to describe patterns of change in individuals or other units of measurement over time; establish the direction and magnitude of relationships among conditions, events, treatments, and later outcomes as measured by parameters of independent variable [75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83]. In this study the dependent variable is GDP, while the independent variables are renewable, CO To analyse the relationship between REC and economic growth, the study uses a multivariate framework, this is preferred because it overcomes the omitted variables bias [93], based on the neoclassical production model where gross capital formation (GCF), and energy are taken as separate inputs.…”

This paper concerns itself with the relationship of renewable energy consumption on economic growth in Uganda using data of 1988-2018. Uganda is gifted with renewable energy resources and should be exploring the possibility of meeting the Sustainable Development Goal 7. This paper uses vector error correction model, the augmented Dickey Fuller test for stationarity while for cointegration the Johansen test were used. The Granger test was used to test for causality between the variables of interest. The findings indicate a negative relationship between renewable energy and economic growth. While a positive relationship exist between Gross Domestic Product and gross capita formation, electricity trade, carbon dioxide emissions and Trade Openness that are taken as controls of this model. In conclusion therefore, Uganda need to pursue clean energy policies, while expanding its electricity trade in the East African community in order to absorb the excess electricity supply over peak domestic consumption. This paper will also increase the understanding on the need to integrate energy markets with in the region for greater benefits.

“…1. The reformative effects of reducing the energy subsidies; as it is expected that raising the energy prices and rationalizing its consumption will result in a rise in its efficient use, which shall in turn contribute to enhancing the economic growth in both the short and long terms (Al-Tal and Al-Tarawneh, 2021). This is mainly attributed to saving a significant part of the resources which were allocated to the energy subsidy, and directing this part towards other productive fields such as investment, which shall in turn support the economic growth.…”

In most developing countries, and the Middle East region in particular, "Energy Subsidy" is an issue of special importance for policymakers. To this day, there are no conclusive results concerning the possible impacts of the energy subsidies reform on economic growth. On this basis, this current study aims to examine the impacts of the energy subsidies reform on the economic growth in Egypt. To achieve the study's objective, the impacts of the energy subsidies reform have been divided into the following: (a) indirect impacts: estimated through the use of AMOS OR WARP PLS program, and (b) direct impacts: determined on basis of the Autoregressive Distributed Lag Model. So, this study evaluates the indirect effects of energy subsidy reform on economic growth. So, this current study has concluded that the energy subsidies reform in Egypt has significant negative effects on economic growth in both the short and long terms, whether they are direct or indirect impacts. Therefore, this research recommends that when it comes to reducing the energy subsidies, the Egyptian government shall adopt a lenient approach, to avoid the relevant negative impacts; thus, such measures shall be executed over many stages that extend for a longer period of time, with the provision of a social fund that supports the low-income people more comprehensively.
