Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyze data obtained from agripreneurs in the Dodoma and Singida regions of Tanzania. The findings revealed that while green absorptive capacity is a key factor in shaping the intentions of agripreneurs to adopt precision agricultural technology, green innovation is a significant mediator of the relationship. This suggests that if green innovation is reinforced among agripreneurs through the proper development of green absorptive capacity, agripreneurs will be positively inclined to adopt precision agricultural technology.

The result of the system generalized method of moments (GMM) exposes the concealed mechanism, stating that stringent environmental policy, when connected with innovation in the clean energy sector, generates influential cooperation that fosters the adoption of clean energy sources. The Driscoll-Kraay standard error estimation used as a robust method confirms our baseline results derived from the system GMM method.

While existing research often aggregates various natural disasters or focuses on localized contexts, this study offers a comprehensive global perspective, analyzing how distinct types of extreme weather impact energy consumption patterns. Employing a fixed-effects panel regression model, the findings reveal that floods correlate with increased energy consumption, particularly in developing countries, whereas droughts are associated with decreased energy use. In contrast, extreme temperatures and bushfires do not exhibit a statistically significant impact on energy consumption. Robustness checks using alternative models, such as the Tobit model and two-stage least squares regression, confirm the reliability of these results. The analysis suggests that floods escalate energy demand due to the extensive recovery and mitigation efforts required, while droughts diminish consumption through their detrimental effects on agriculture, industry, and hydropower production. These findings hold significant implications for energy policy and climate resilience, underscoring the necessity to enhance the adaptability of energy systems, improve energy efficiency, and extend support to developing nations facing climatic stressors.
