Exploring the Impact of Exports on Clean Energy Consumption in China: An Empirical Study

Understanding the influence of export volume in improving a country’s clean energy consumption requires systematic search method to characterize crucial role ensure environmental sustainability. The present study employed an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) bounds testing approach and vector error correction model (VECM), by using data from 1985-2018. analysis revealed that long-run increase exports per capita technological innovation can enhance consumption, overcome issues. Surprisingly, economic growth does not display significant effect. In short run progress reduces consumption. outcome causality tests reveals unidirectional term. Along similar line, results prove feedback link among indicating is core factor driving improve use, long run. To enable success improvement, policymakers China should take proper initiatives trade, adjust pattern, patent incentive technology, sustainable development.
