the purpose of this study is to investigate the role of oil, natural gas and coal consumption in iran’s economic growth during the periods from 1980 to 2012. the stationary analysis is performed by using adf and phillips-perron unit root test and auto-regressive distributed lag (ardl) approach was used to test for co-integration between the variables. the findings show that the variables are co...

Prediction of residential natural gas consumption in 20 next years was performed in this paper. Artificial neural network (ANN) was used to predict the natural gas in the Kerman, the biggest province in the Iran. The Kerman is included with ten important cities where gas consumption was estimated in each city. The minimum temperature in each year, population growth rate and number of each year ...

Abstract I n this paper we investigated total energy consumption and its individual forms (oil, natural gas, electricity, renewable energies and coal) relationship with real gross domestic product (GDP) in Iran. We employed Hsiao’s (1981) methodology and annual data which cover 1967-2010 for investigation. The empirical findings indicate there is bidirectional causality ef...
