Bu nedenle çalışmamızda enerji verimliliği, ekonomik büyüme, globalleşme ve ekolojik ayak izi arasındaki eşbütünleşme bağlantısı Pedroni ve Westerlund eş bütünleşme testleri ile araştırılmıştır. Eşbütünleşme testlerinin ardından genişletilmiş ortalama grup (AMG) ve ortak bağıntılı etkiler ortalama grup (CCEMG) tahmincileri ile katsayı tahmini yapılmıştır. Nedensellik ilişkisi için Dumitrescu ve Hurlin nedensellik testi uygulanmıştır. Eşbütünleşme testlerinin sonucunda ise değişkenlerin eşbütünleşik olduğu bulunmuştur. Tahmincilerin sonucunda ise ekolojik ayak izini enerji verimliliğinin azalttığı, ekonomik büyümenin ise artırdığı belirlenmiştir. Globalleşmenin enerji verimliliği üzerindeki etkisinin pozitif ancak anlamsız olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Dumitrescu ve Hurlin nedensellik testi sonucunda, enerji verimliliği ve ekolojik ayak izi arasında çift yönlü pozitif nedensellik ilişkisi ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu doğrultuda analize konu olan ülkeler için politika yapıcılar enerji verimliliği ve çevre temelini göz önüne alan ekonomi politikaları izlemelidir.

Therefore, in our study, the cointegration link among energy efficiency, economic growth, globalization and ecological footprint was investigated with Pedroni and Westerlund cointegration tests. Following cointegration tests, coefficient estimation was made with the extended mean group (AMG) and common correlated effects mean group (CCEMG) estimators. For causality relationships, Dumitrescu and Hurlin causality tests were applied. As a result of cointegration tests, it was found that the variables were cointegrated. As a result of the estimators, it was determined that energy efficiency reduces the ecological footprint and economic growth increases it. It has been specified that the impact of globalization on energy efficiency is positive but insignificant. In consequence of the Dumitrescu and Hurlin causality test, a bidirectional positive causality relationship emerged between energy efficiency and ecological footprint. In this regard, policymakers for the countries subject to analysis should follow economic policies that take energy efficiency and environmental basis into consideration.
