Environmental issues and global warming continue to drive researchers to investigate the validity of hypotheses regarding the environment. The environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) is the most popular hypothesis in the environmental economics, prompting researchers to propose a new hypothesis based on it. In this framework, the renewable energy Kuznets curve (RKC) hypothesis was proposed as a prerequisite for the EKC. According to the RKC, at the beginning of the economic growth process, an economy tends to use fossil fuels and reduce the use of renewable energy (RE) because fossil fuels are cheap. Then, as economic growth process continues and income reaches a threshold/turning point, the economy begins to rely more on RE sources. Such RE use indicates a U-shaped association between income and RE (the RKC hypothesis). Based on this information, the study compares the validity of EKC … |
