Abstract

Bu çalışmanın ana amacı 1990-2016 yılları süresince Asya-Pasifik Ekonomik İşbirliği (APEC) ülkelerinde yenilenebilir enerji arzının hava kirliliği kaynaklı erken ölümlerin refah maliyetleri üzerindeki uzun dönemli etkilerini dinamik panel veri teknikleri kullanarak incelemektir. Uzun dönem esneklik sonuçları yenilenebilir enerji kaynakları arzındaki artışların hava kirliliğinin refah maliyetlerini azalttığını ortaya koymuştur. Uygulama sonuçları, yenilenebilir enerjinin sadece sürdürülebilir bir enerji kaynağı olarak görülmemesi, aynı zamanda kirliliğin muhtemel dışsallıkları ile baş etmenin etkin bir yolu olarak da değerlendirilmesi gerektiğini ortaya çıkarmıştır.

Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to determine the possible long run impacts of renewable energy supply on the welfare cost of premature deaths caused by air pollution in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) countries during 1990-2016 by using dynamic panel data techniques. The long run elasticity results showed that the increasing supply of renewable energy sources reduces the welfare cost of air pollution. Empirical findings revealed that clean energy should not just seen as a sustainable energy source but also considered as an efficient way to struggle with possible negative externalities of pollution.
