Abstract

The European Union has set ambitious goals for both energy efficiency and renewable energy use as part of its strategy to combat climate change. Using a panel data regression model that spans from 2012 to 2021, this study aims to evaluate how energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy sources impact greenhouse gas emissions and economic growth in the member states of the European Union. The findings confirm that energy efficiency and renewable energy production effectively reduce greenhouse gas emissions while also positively influencing economic growth. However, it is important to note that the impact of renewable energy production on economic growth is limited. Therefore, it is crucial to emphasise the role of energy efficiency policies for sustainable development within the European Union. In addition, these findings support the implementation of policies that promote responsible energy consumption and encourage economically and environmentally sustainable development.
欧盟成员国能源效率和可再生能源对温室气体排放和经济增长的影响分析
作为应对气候变化战略的一部分,欧盟为能源效率和可再生能源的使用制定了雄心勃勃的目标。本研究采用 2012 年至 2021 年的面板数据回归模型,旨在评估能源效率和可再生能源的使用如何影响欧盟成员国的温室气体排放和经济增长。研究结果证实,能源效率和可再生能源生产在有效减少温室气体排放的同时,也对经济增长产生了积极影响。不过,需要注意的是,可再生能源生产对经济增长的影响是有限的。因此,强调能效政策对欧盟可持续发展的作用至关重要。此外,这些研究结果还支持实施促进负责任的能源消费和鼓励经济与环境可持续发展的政策。
