Abstract
In this study, the influence of various factors on CO2 emissions in Uzbekistan during the period 1992-2020 was studied. The study examines the effect of forest area, urban population growth, renewable energy consumption, fossil fuel energy consumption, per capita energy consumption and industrial activity on observed CO2 emissions. Data were analyzed using multivariate linear regression, the D'Agostino skewness test, and the Anscombe-Glynn kurtosis tests. The results show that forest area has a significant negative correlation with CO2 emissions, suggesting that increased forest cover helps reduce emissions. Urban population growth shows a positive correlation with CO2 emissions, emphasizing the need for sustainable urbanization practices. Renewable energy consumption has been found to have a negative impact on emissions, promoting the adoption of clean energy sources. Fossil fuel energy consumption reveals a complex relationship, with different fuels contributing differently to emissions. Per capita energy consumption and industrial activity contribute significantly to emissions, requiring the adoption of energy-efficient technologies and sustainable industrial practices.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy (IJEEP) is the international academic journal, and is a double-blind, peer-reviewed academic journal publishing high quality conceptual and measure development articles in the areas of energy economics, energy policy and related disciplines. The journal has a worldwide audience. The journal''s goal is to stimulate the development of energy economics, energy policy and related disciplines theory worldwide by publishing interesting articles in a highly readable format. The journal is published bimonthly (6 issues per year) and covers a wide variety of topics including (but not limited to): Energy Consumption, Electricity Consumption, Economic Growth - Energy, Energy Policy, Energy Planning, Energy Forecasting, Energy Pricing, Energy Politics, Energy Financing, Energy Efficiency, Energy Modelling, Energy Use, Energy - Environment, Energy Systems, Renewable Energy, Energy Sources, Environmental Economics, Oil & Gas .
