Impact Of International Trade On Indonesia's Consume Of Renewable Energy

Abstract

This research intends to look into the exports percent of GDP, imports percent of GDP, and percentage of renewable energy in the GDP's total energy usage. This study uses data from 1999 to 2019 It was constructed using secondary data from the World Bank. The method used is quantitative by modeling the Model for Vector Error Correction (VECM) using exports, imports, and consumption of renewable energy in Indonesia as variables. We found that Causality or causal relationship occurs in renewable energy consumption variables that affect imports, import variables affect exports and vice versa export variables affect imports. This shows that using renewable energy is encourages imports and exports in Indonesia. So that international trade has a significant role in encouraging the renewable energy usage.
