Analysis of CO2 emission and economic growth as potential determinants of renewable energy demand in Nigeria: A nonlinear autoregressive distributed lags approach
Analysis of CO2 emission and economic growth as potential determinants of renewable energy demand in Nigeria: A nonlinear autoregressive distributed lags approach
Concerned by the environmental and economic threats posed by fossil fuels as the source of energy, this study uses the case of Nigeria economy to understand the extent to which economic growth and carbon emissions matters for renewable energy demands. Exploring both the linear and nonlinear ARDL modelling framework, the main empirical findings are that the amplified responsiveness of the consequence of climate change has led to increase in the demand for renewable energy particularly when the un
