Full textAbstract:
Europe is in the middle of an energy crisis, exacerbated in large part by skyrocketing gas costs. Renewable energy is critical in this environment for decreasing Europe’s reliance on imported energy; boosting renewables in Europe requires a ‘New Energy Compact’—a coordinated effort throughout Europe to build more renewable energy capacity. The purpose of this research is to examine the structure of renewable energy production in Romania between 2010 and 2020, as well as the green employment produced by the renewable energy sector in Romania between 2010 and 2019. Using the Markov chain approach, it was predicted that in 2025, the hydropower industry’s employees would account for the biggest proportion of the overall average number of workers engaged in the renewable energy production sector in Romania (74.68%). Solar energy production employees will account for 14.31% of the average number of workers in the renewable energy production sector, biomass energy production employees will account for 5.8%, and wind energy production employees will account for 5.2% of the average number of workers in the green energy sector.

Full textAbstract:
Greening the economy requires green innovations, and innovations require investments. Most countries of the world are still relying on conventional (fossil-based) sources of energy. The transition toward green or renewable energy sources is an effective and innovative way to meet ever-increasing demand as a result of the rising population. Another reason for innovations in the field of green energy is the need to mitigate climate change and avoid pollution, especially in developing countries. The monitored investments into renewable energy sources are usually public. Therefore, this paper aims to determine whether the selected countries of the world produced renewable energy efficiently, considering the investments made by public financial institutions and installed electricity capacity for renewable energy sources, for the period 2013–2017 (for a deeper analysis, the year 2017 was chosen). For this purpose, the Stochastic Frontier Analysis model in the logarithmic form of the Cobb-Douglas production function is used, which helps to judge the competitiveness of countries based on effectively transforming the inputs into outputs. Results suggest that the effect of the first variable “installed electricity capacity” on electricity generation was highly statistically significant, and the impact of the second variable “public investments” was characterized as statistically insignificant. The monitored countries were divided into 10 groups according to the different range of estimated output-oriented technical efficiency from 0.00 to 1.00. Most countries should increase the renewable electricity generation approximately by 40-49%, given the level of inputs (16 countries of 6th group with estimated output-oriented technical efficiency 0.51-0.60) for the year 2017.

Full textAbstract:
Policies to promote renewable electricity are increasingly seen as a way to reduce the negative environmental impacts associated with electricity consumption and meet growing electricity demand. This paper reviews the international experience with one such policy, namely, renewable energy certificates, and considers important design aspects of a national green certificate system. Within a South African context, a green certificate system would provide a mechanism with which to verify compliance with any future renewable energy obligations, and would encourage renewable electricity generation in the current monopoly environment. In terms of a national green certificate framework, international experience has shown that renewable energy certificates must be both accredited and standardized, with enforcement of penalties for non-compliance with renewable energy quotas. Above all, a long-term and stable policy environment is crucial for developing renewable energy markets.

Full textAbstract:
This study explores the impact of green energy strategies on natural resource sustainability in Pakistan, utilizing data from 1999 to 2022 and applying the ARDL estimation technique. The primary focus is on understanding how renewable energy consumption and production influence natural resource rents. Empirical results indicate a complex relationship: renewable energy consumption is negatively correlated with natural resource rents, suggesting that increased consumption of renewable energy may reduce the exploitation of natural resources. Conversely, renewable energy production shows a positive correlation with natural resource rents, implying that boosting renewable energy production can enhance the value derived from natural resources. These findings underscore the dual role of renewable energy in promoting sustainability. On the consumption side, a shift towards renewables can alleviate pressure on natural resources, fostering long-term ecological balance. On the production side, investing in renewable energy infrastructure appears to complement the efficient use of natural resources, potentially increasing economic rents. Policymakers should encourage renewable energy consumption through incentives and subsidies, reducing dependence on non-renewable resources and mitigating environmental degradation.

Full textAbstract:
Governments and businesses in many countries are orienting their strategies in accordance with meeting the sustainable development goals (SDGs), due to current global development. In a dynamic environment and competitive markets, this strategy orientation is seen as a way to succeed and ensure long-term sustainability. In this context, renewable energy has gained a lot of attention and interest. The promotion and use of renewable energy depend crucially on government policies. Different incentives such as subsidies, tax incentives, renewable energy targets, and regulations that encourage or require the use of renewables can significantly boost their adoption. Renewable energy technologies, such as solar panels, wind turbines, and energy storage systems, have advanced and have made their use a more attractive option for consumers and businesses because of their accessibility, affordability, and efficiency. This study aims to present and give a comparative overview of renewable energy investments in the Balkan Countries with a focus on green energy. Green energy is a sub-category of renewable energy that refers only to two sources: sun and wind. Even though green energy is part of renewable energy, it might have specific characteristics that are interesting to be known. The objective of this study is to analyze the relationship of the main factors that impact the consumption of green energy in Albania compared to four EU countries. Following the previous research conducted and after identifying the main factors that impact the consumption of green energy, a panel data regression model is used to analyze how these factors are related to the consumption of green energy in 5 countries: Albania (non-EU country), Croatia, Bulgaria, Greece, Slovenia (EU countries). The study results found that the electricity price and education index positively impact the consumption of green energy, while CO2 emissions negatively impact it.

Full textAbstract:
Energy demand has grown rapidly with increase of global population. Surge in energy consumption is mainly driven by both economic and technological advancement. The conventional fossil fuels sources (coal, oil, and natural gas) and nuclear energy are depleting in nature known as non-renewables. Burning of fossil fuels contribute significant amount of greenhouse gases emissions, which negatively impact the global ecosystem. Access to energy is essential for modern civilization, yet we must seek alternative energy sources to protect our planet by controlling the emissions. Capturing harmful Green House Gases (GHG) with the help of advanced technologies helps reduce the risk to some extent. However, alternative energy sources must be renewable and sustainable. Renewable energy resources vary by geographical location and include solar, wind, hydro, and bioenergy, among others. The most appealing primary benefits of renewable energy include its low environmental impact, consistent availability even in challenging weather conditions, and its effectiveness in reducing pollution. Additionally, renewable energy contributes to economic growth, fosters job creation, and enhances energy security. However, there are challenges associated with renewable energy storage, which scientists are actively working to address. In addition, public opposition for the installation of renewable energy infrastructure also create difficulties. Increasing public education and awareness regarding the advantages of renewable energy can assist increasing the acceptability, which can further help policymakers in making well-informed decisions. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of diverse renewable energy sources and their current advancements in development. This review further finds that effective government policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, coupled with improved technology and storage solutions, the adoption of renewable energy will expand significantly in the coming years.

PurposeThis study explores the interplay among climate change, economic growth and energy consumption in G20 countries by considering the role of green energy.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses various empirical tools to determine the association between carbon emissions, economic growth, renewables, non-renewables, population and urbanization for a panel of G20 countries between 1990 and 2014.FindingsEmpirical outcomes from various empirical tools reveal a positive and significant impact of economic growth, non-renewable energy consumption and urbanization on carbon emissions, and their increase will further lead to the deterioration of environmental quality. The elasticity coefficient of renewable energy coefficient is negative and significant implying an increase in its consumption will improve environmental quality. Panel causality test results reveal the existence of both short-run and long-run causality among the variables. Therefore, results infer that a reduction in the consumption of non-renewable and substitution with renewables will have a significant impact on carbon emission mitigation.Originality/valueThrough this study, the authors suggest the sustainable use of renewables as they are sustainable, secure, efficient, environmentally justifiable and economically viable sources of energy. Therefore, replacing traditional non-renewables with modern renewables has the potential in avoiding the dangerous impacts of greenhouse gases (GHGs) particularly in the G20 countries. This paper intends to guide policymakers regarding the environmental quality and renewable energy consumption required to hold back the fossil fuel dependence for a cleaner and greener planet.

Full textAbstract:
Excessive consumption of traditional fossil energy has led to more serious global air pollution. This article incorporates renewable energy green innovation (REGI), fossil energy consumption (FEC), and air pollution into a unified analysis framework. Using China’s provincial panel data, a spatial measurement model was used to investigate the spatial effects of renewable energy green innovation and fossil energy consumption on air pollution in China from 2011 to 2017. The global Moran index shows that over time, the spatial correlation of air pollution has gradually weakened, while the global correlation of renewable energy green innovation and fossil energy consumption is increasing year by year. ArcGIS visualization and partial Moran index show that air pollution, renewable energy green innovation, and fossil energy consumption are extremely uneven in geographic space. The spatial distribution of air pollution, renewable energy green innovations, and fossil energy consumption are all characterized by high in the east and low in the west and they all show a strong spatial aggregation. Applying the spatial adjacency matrix to the spatial Durbin model gave the results that China’s air pollution has a significant spatial spillover effect. Replacing fossil fuels with clean renewable energy will reduce air pollutant emissions. The Environment Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis has not been supported and verified in China. The partial differential method test found that the spatial spillover benefits can be decomposed into direct effects and indirect effects. The direct and indirect effects of renewable energy green innovation on air pollution are both significantly negative, indicating that green innovation of renewable energy not only inhibits local air pollution, but also inhibits air pollution in nearby areas. The consumption of fossil energy will significantly increase the local air pollution, while the impact of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and soot (DS) pollution in nearby areas is not obvious. It is recommended to increase investment in renewable energy green innovation, reduce the proportion of traditional fossil energy consumption, and pay attention to the spatial connection and overflow of renewable energy green innovation and air pollution.

Full textAbstract:
Research background: As an outcome of a global consensus on combating climate change, green finance is expected to play an important role in promoting green growth and innovation progress. Some studies note that green credit policy yields a negative influence on green innovation, while how green finance affects renewable energy innovation has received scant attention in academia. This study focuses on the impact of green finance on renewable energy innovation. Purpose of the article: This research investigates the influence of green finance on an economy's renewable energy innovation by using green bond data from the Climate Bonds Initiative. This research further tests whether it varies for different kinds of energy types and economic development levels. Given that policies are key to renewable energy technology development, this research checks whether government stability changes the relationship between green finance and renewable energy innovation. Methods: Using the panel fixed effects model and big-scale data from 64 economies worldwide during the period 2014-2019, we investigate green finance's impact on renewable energy innovation. In the robustness test, the dynamic panel model and the panel Tobit model are employed. Findings & value added: This research finds that green finance has a positive effect on renewable energy innovation. This effect is prominent in non-OECD economies as well as middle-income and low-income economies. Government stability enhances the influence of green finance on renewable energy innovation. Moreover, the results indicate that green finance mainly promotes innovation progress for wind energy and produces little effect for other renewable energies. The subsample analysis also sheds light on the heterogeneity of the role of green finance in promoting renewable energy innovation.

The main problem confronting the world is human-caused climate change, which is intrinsically linked to the need for energy both now and in the future. Renewable (green) energy has been proposed as a future solution, and many renewable energy technologies have been developed for different purposes. However, progress toward net zero carbon emissions by 2050 and the role of renewable energy in 2050 are not well known. This paper reviews different renewable energy technologies developed by different researchers and their potential and challenges to date, and it derives lessons for world and especially African policymakers. According to recent research results, the mean global capabilities for solar, wind, biogas, geothermal, hydrogen, and ocean power are 325 W, 900 W, 300 W, 434 W, 150 W, and 2.75 MWh, respectively, and their capacities for generating electricity are 1.5 KWh, 1182.5 KWh, 1.7 KWh, 1.5 KWh, 1.55 KWh, and 3.6 MWh, respectively. Securing global energy leads to strong hope for meeting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as those for hunger, health, education, gender equality, climate change, and sustainable development. Therefore, renewable energy can be a considerable contributor to future fuels.

Abstract The increase in industrial activities is followed by an increase in complex environmental problems, such as air pollution due to factory exhaust fumes, which are mostly produced in industrial areas such as in Surabaya, Indonesia. Based on data from iqair.com, three industrial areas in Surabaya fall into the category of moderate to unhealthy sensitive groups. The Tandes industrial area is in the unhealthy category for sensitive groups with an AQI index of US 104. Meanwhile, Kertajaya and Benowo are in the moderate category with US AQI indexes of 61 and 86 respectively. It is necessary to implement a green economy program. The existing renewable energy power plants in Indonesia will support the industry to switch to the use of electricity-based machines from renewable energy which will reduce air pollution that causes greenhouse gas emissions. The purpose of this study is to analyze the factory environment and application of a green economy through the use of electricity-based machines. Qualitative method is employed in this study. The results showed that the application of electricity-based machines can reduce the level of air pollution in Surabaya and potentially increase renewable energy in Indonesia.

There is a growing interest in green hydrogen, with researchers, institutions, and countries focusing on its development, efficiency improvement, and cost reduction. This paper explores the concept of green hydrogen and its production process using renewable energy sources in several leading countries, including Australia, the European Union, India, Canada, China, Russia, the United States, South Korea, South Africa, Japan, and other nations in North Africa. These regions possess significant potential for “green” hydrogen production, supporting the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy and promoting environmental sustainability through the electrolysis process, a common method of production. The paper also examines the benefits of green hydrogen as a future alternative to fossil fuels, highlighting its superior environmental properties with zero net greenhouse gas emissions. Moreover, it explores the potential advantages of green hydrogen utilization across various industrial, commercial, and transportation sectors. The research suggests that green hydrogen can be the fuel of the future when applied correctly in suitable applications, with improvements in production and storage techniques, as well as enhanced efficiency across multiple domains. Optimization strategies can be employed to maximize efficiency, minimize costs, and reduce environmental impact in the design and operation of green hydrogen production systems. International cooperation and collaborative efforts are crucial for the development of this technology and the realization of its full benefits.

Investment in the renewable energy industry has huge market potential and economic benefits. In order to technologically upgrade, industrialize, and marketize renewable energy projects, it is necessary to build a good green policy environment and a reasonable green policy support system. This paper studies the effects of the green policy environment on renewable energy investment and conducts effect evaluation on the green policies. First, a coordinated energy planning and investment strategy was proposed against the green and low-carbon background, and the influence mechanism of the green policy environment on renewable energy investment was elaborated. Then, a multistage optimization model was constructed for renewable energy investment in the green policy environment, and the model reconstruction and solution were also given. After that, the steps to evaluate the effects of green policies for renewable energy power generation were also explained in detail. The experimental results verified the effectiveness of the constructed model. The relevant research results can enrich and improve the theoretical research framework of the green policy environment system, and fully promote the strategy transformation of energy and high-quality economic development.

Full textAbstract:
Growing population and limited energy resources have impacted energy consumption. Limited fossil fuel resources and increased pollution threaten national and human societies. These elements emphasize energy sources. Renewable energy use affects growth. All new energy sources, including renewables, are crucial for global economic growth. Economic and environmental issues have led to new approaches in international environmental law, including the green economy. This study employs structural vector auto-regression (SVAR) to compare the effects and outcomes of increasing the use of renewable energy in the context of economic growth and greenhouse gas emissions in middle income countries (MICs) and high income countries (HICs). The results show that these indicators demonstrate that the production of energy from renewable sources has positive short-term and long-term economic effects with varying contributions. However, renewable energies have a greater impact on the green economy in selected MICs than in selected HICs. Therefore, the promotion of macroeconomic indicators is viewed as one of the reasons for the development of policies to increase energy production from renewable sources in selected countries.

The adoption of Renewable Energy Technologies (RETs) constituted a win-win situation, as renewable is not only green and job-generating, but also sustainable with a higher environmental benefit. Renewable fuels such as wind, solar, biomass, tides, and geothermal are inexhaustible, indigenous and are often free as a resource. They just need to be captured efficiently and transformed into electricity, hydrogen or clean transportation fuels. The renewable energy sources have hardly any carbon footprint and are environment-friendly and do not require environmentally-damaging mining and transport. The paper highlights various sources of clean energy in the context of sustainable economic, environmental, and social development besides focusing on the importance of renewable energy in the modern world.

Abstract: Green building is not just a matter of assembling a collection of the latest green technologies or materials. Rather, it is a process in which every element of the design is first optimized and then the impact and interrelationship of various different elements and systems within the building and site are re-evaluated, integrated, and optimized as part of a whole building solution. By blending the right mix of green technologies that cost less with green technologies that cost the same or slightly more, it is possible to have a very green building project that costs the same as a conventional one. Often the key to a cost effective green building and site design lies within the interrelationships and associated cost and performance trade-offs that exist between different building systems. It is also paramount to separate the role of the different participants in ensuring that the building consumes minimal resources during its life cycle and that it poses a minimal threat to the environment by minimizing the ecological footprint. The main aim of this project is to add various renewable energy sources to green building and create a 3D model on Autodesk Revit Architecture. Keywords: Green Building, Revit Architecture, Suzlon One Earth, Micro Hydroelectric Power Plant.

The global climate is undergoing a significant and unprecedented transformation. The phenomenon presents a significant peril to the well-being of the human population, biodiversity, and the overall stability of the global ecosystem. This article explores the relationship and impact between environmental governance, green goods, non-green goods, and eco-innovation on material footprint and renewable energy for the BRICS countries from 2000 to 2019. We apply the FGLS and PCSE approaches to estimate the relationships, and the Dumitrescu and Hurlin test to ascertain causality. The study reveals that eco-innovation and environmental governance produce a statistically significant positive relationship with both material footprint and renewable energy consumption. Economic growth generates an insignificantly positive link with material footprint and renewable energy use. The findings also illustrate that non-green goods generate a significantly negative association with both material footprint and green energy use. Green goods depict a significant and positive relationship with material footprint, but a significantly negative relationship with renewable energy consumption in the BRICS situation. The causality results demonstrate a bi-directional causality association between non-green goods and material footprint, green goods and material footprint, renewable energy use and eco-innovation, renewable energy consumption and environmental governance, and renewable energy use and green goods. Moreover, a uni-directional causality relationship running from eco-innovation to material footprint, environmental governance to material footprint, non-green goods to renewable energy consumption, material footprint to economic development, and renewable energy consumption to economic growth is established. The study’s findings provide light on the association between the parameters and unsustainable and sustainable green practices on material footprint and renewable energy consumption, respectively, within the BRICS framework. These findings offer useful insights for policymakers, emphasizing the need for nations to work together in order to create a balanced and harmonious relationship between economic progress and environmental conservation from an emerging economy scale.

This paper examines the asymmetric impact renewable energy generation and clean energy prices on green economy stock prices by employing monthly data for all three indices end on 2021M07, and start on 2010M12. The nonlinear ARDL approach (NARDL) is applied in order to find short-run and long-run asymmetries. The empirical results indicate that renewable energy generation significant negative impact on green economy stock prices. For the clean energy prices have a positive and negative significant impact on green economy stock prices in selected markets under concern. The short-run coefficients of clean energy stock prices have a significant positive affect on green economy stock prices. The Wald test results confirmed the green economy stock price adjustment is running towards the long- and short-run steady increment regarding positive and negative shocks in renewable energy generation and clean energy. Finally, the dynamic multipliers showed that prices of renewable energy generation have a positive (negative) impact on green economy stock prices. Indeed, clean energy prices respond quickly to the changes (both positive and negative) on green economy prices in all selected markets. In sum, the negative shocks dominate positive shocks in renewable energy generation and clean energy, and results indicate that a positive and negative relationship was noted between these covariates and green economy stock prices.

<abstract><p>In this paper,we investigate the mean and volatility spillover between the price of green bonds and the price of renewable energy stocks using daily price series from 02/11/2011 to 31/08/2021. The unrestricted trivariate VAR-BEKK-GARCH model is employed to examine potential causality,mean,and volatility spillover effects from the green bond market to the renewable energy stock market and vice-versa. The results from the VAR-BEKK-GARCH model indicate that there exists a uni-directional Granger causality from renewable energy stock prices to green bond prices. While the price of green bonds is positively influenced by its own lagged values and the lagged values of renewable energy stock prices,only the past price value of renewable energy stocks has a positive effect on the current price value. We identified a uni-directional volatility spillover from renewable energy stock prices to green bond prices. However,there was no shock spillover from both sides of the market. This research shows that investors in the green bond market should always consider information from the renewable energy stock market because of the causal link between renewable energy stocks and green bonds.</p></abstract>

Purpose The development of green economy is of academic and policy importance to governments and policymakers worldwide. In the light of the necessity of renewable energy to sustain green economic growth, this study aims to examine the relationship between renewable energy consumption and green economic growth, controlling for the impact of trade openness for Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development countries over the period 1990-2015, within a multivariate panel data framework. Design/methodology/approach To investigate the long-run relationship between variables, panel cointegration tests are performed. Panel Granger causality based on vector error correction models is adopted to understand the short- and long-run dynamics of the data. Furthermore, ordinary least square (OLS), dynamic OLS and fully modified OLS methods are used to confirm the long-run elasticity of green growth for renewable energy consumption and trade openness. Moreover, system generalized method of moment is applied to eliminate serial correlation, heteroscedasticity and endogeneity problems. The authors used the panel Granger causality test developed by Dumitrescu and Hurlin (2012) to infer the directionality of the causal relationship, allowing for both the cross-sectional dependence and heterogeneity. Findings The results suggest that renewable energy consumption and trade openness exert positive effects on green economic growth. The results of long-run estimates of green economic growth reveal that the long-run elasticity of green economic growth for trade openness is much greater than for renewable energy consumption. The estimated results of the Dumitrescu and Hurlin (2012) test reveal bidirectional causality between green economic growth and renewable energy consumption, providing support for the feedback hypothesis. Practical implications This paper provides strong evidence of the contribution of renewable energy consumption on green economy for a wide range of countries. Despite the costs of establishing renewable energy facilities, it is evident that these facilities contribute to the green growth of an economy. Governments and public authorities should promote the consumption of renewable energy and should have a support policy to promote an active renewable energy market. Furthermore, the regulators must constitute an efficient regulatory framework to favor the renewable energy consumption. Social implications Many countries focus on increasing their GDP without taking the environmental impacts of the growth process into account. This paper shows that renewable energy consumption points to the fact that countries can still increase their economic growth with minimal damage to environment. Despite the costs of adopting renewable energy technologies, there is still room for economic growth. Originality/value This paper provides evidence on the contribution of renewable energy consumption on green economic growth for a wide range of countries. The paper focuses on the impact of renewable energy on economic growth by taking environmental degradation into consideration on a wide scale of countries.

The paper investigates the economic ways of green energy promotion in the European Union. It is stated that environmental friendliness and economic expediency are the main drivers of renewable energy development. The paper emphasizes that the EU has significant achievements in green energy promotion. The EU encourages the use of renewables in a variety of ways, including tariff and non-tariff instruments. In the research different economic incentives are classified by certain criteria. It is outlined in the research that the feed-in tariff was the first and most widely used mechanism of support for green energy producers. At the same time, it is gradually being replaced by a feed-in premium (a system of allowances for additional generation). The paper also highlights the importance of non-tariff instruments, including tax incentives, green certificate system, investment grants, and subsidies.

In the paper the issues on the renewable energy and green construction in the Arctic are considered. The authors analyze the premises of the green construction in the Northern territories. They propose that the Arctic could be seen as the innovative platform to test the newest technologies for construction and energy generation. The factors impacted on the industrial development are also researched. The authors assess the modern trends of the Arctic construction sphere using the data on housing development, energy consumption etc. They justify that to increase the production of thermal energy in the northern regions of Russia, the green technologies development is the most profitable and long-term. Moreover, the definition of “green technologies” includes not only wooden construction and solar panels, but also many other quite affordable technologies. In the Conclusions the results of the research are performed, including the recommendations on the green construction development considering the specificity of the Arctic territories.

The paper deals with the analysis of the green investment impact on the energy efficiency gap. The findings of the bibliometric analysis proved the increasing trend of the published documents on green investment and the energy efficiency gap. In the study, the author used Scopus Tools Analysis, Web of Science Results Analysis, and VOSviewer for providing the bibliometric analysis. In the paper the author checked the hypothesis as follows: cointegration exists between GDP, energy efficiency, green investment and share of renewable energy; green investment had a positive impact on the percentage of renewable energy; green investment had a positive effect on the countries energy efficiency and decreased the energy efficiency gap. The author used the unit root test for checking the stationarity of the selected variables. Pedroni panel cointegration test used for monitoring the cointegration between variables. Fully Modified Least Square model used for identifying the relationship between variables. The findings proved the stationarity of the data at the first level. It allowed providing the Pedroni cointegration test and long-run covariance test. Thus, the empirical results showed that increasing green investment leads to an increase in energy efficiency by 0.56 points, gross domestic product per capita – 0.18 points, renewable energy – 0.39 points. The increasing of renewable energy allowed increasing energy efficiency by 0.38 points, gross domestic product per capita – 0.19 points, green investment – 0.54 points. Besides, rising of the countries’ energy efficiency allowed growing of gross domestic product per capita by 0.27 points, green investment – 0.31 points, and declining of renewable energy by 1.14 points. If the increase of energy efficiency leads to a decrease in the energy efficiency gap the following could be concluded: increasing green investment leads to reducing of energy efficiency gap; increasing of renewable energy in the total energy consumption allowed declining the energy efficiency gap. In this case, in Ukraine, the mechanisms for improving the investment climate should be developed at the national level, considering the EU experience. Such activities allowed to attract additional green investment in renewable energy projects. Keywords: green investment, cointegration, correlation, green finance.

How to promote renewable energy investment is central to energy transformation and green development. To take China’s “green credit guidelines” policy as a quasi-natural experiment, we investigate the impacts of green credit policy on renewable energy investment. Using the samples of 1021 Chinese listed enterprises during 2007–2017, we find that: Firstly, the introduction of the green credit guidelines has promoted renewable energy investment. Secondly, short-term debts play a mediating role in the impacts of green credit guidelines on renewable energy investment, while long-term debts play a masking role, and financing constraints do not play a significant role. Thirdly, the heterogeneous impacts on renewable energy investment are reflected in different ownerships and enterprise scales, with significant impacts on the state-owned enterprises and small ones.

Green bonds play a pivotal role in promoting sustainability by channeling financial resources towards environmentally friendly projects, fostering a greener and more resilient future. This research investigates the role of “Green Bonds” in the attainment of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), focusing on two specific goals: climate action, represented by per capita carbon emissions (CO2), and clean energy, represented by per capita renewable energy production. Using data from 2007, when the first green bond was issued, up to 2021, we employed a one-step generalized method of moments (GMM) model to explore how green bonds impact global emission reduction and the increase in renewable energy production. The findings demonstrate that green bonds have a significant influence on both emissions and renewable energy production. Specifically, green bonds and renewable energy production have a positive and significant association, while emissions exhibit a negative relationship with green bonds. Our results reported a reduction in carbon emissions up to 0.8 tons, while an increase in renewable energy up to 66 kWh. Upon analyzing the data before and after 2015, we observe that prior to 2015, there was no significant effect of green bonds on emissions and renewable energy production. However, after 2015, green bonds substantially impacted both indicators. Furthermore, our results indicate that countries with higher green bond issuance are more likely to achieve their sustainability goals, particularly in terms of renewable energy production and carbon emission reductions. Conversely, countries with lower green bond issuance are struggling to attain their sustainability objectives in these areas.

Indonesia has many green energy potencies to replace the fossil-based conventional energy. However, the use of this conventional energy is still in dominant. It is understandable that older generations are difficult to change their habits in using green energy for various reasons. Whereas the younger generation are expected to starts using environmentally friendly energy, in the form of new and renewable energy. This study aims to determine the tendency of young people to use renewable energy. 60 respondents were selected from department of environmental engineering students, Pasundan University in Bandung, Indonesia. The respondents range from first to fourth year students. Assumption used in respondents selection was student with environmental engineering educational background will have knowledge on renewable energy. This research conducted through questionnaires. The results show that only 10% of the respondents have used the renewable energy, i.e. solar energy. Whereas 90% of respondents do not use renewable energy due to lack of knowledge on how to start using it. Nevertheless, 97% of respondents consider that using green energy is a proud thing. From a variety of green energy alternatives, 50% of the students consider solid waste as the most potential source of renewable energy in Indonesia.

Even though standard economic frameworks suggest that markets and not policy makers should decide winners and losers, we urge to accelerate renewable energy competitiveness, proposing that by limiting the number of renewable technologies where resources are allocated to at government level, we reduce the time within which renewables will achieve technological price parity with fossil fuels. In turn, by analyzing the energy demand and supply curves, the study suggests that this action will also mediate the relation between quantity and price, shifting only the supply curve, leaving the demand curve unaffected. It continues by proposing the standardization of a unique renewable energy supply chain model, later defined as the SURESC model. For such, a deep analysis on existing green technologies will be performed proposing the implementation of a hydrogen through ammonia economy via ammonia for power as key factor for success.
