The aim of this study is to investigate the long-term relationship between primary energy consumption, renewable energy consumption, carbon dioxide emissions, and economic growth in Turkey by cointegration test. In this context, with the help of the ARDL boundary test approach developed by Peseran et all (2001), it was analyzed using annual data for the period 1990-2019. Within the framework of the findings obtained in the analysis, it was concluded that there is a long-term cointegration relationship between the variables. In this context, primary energy consumption and economic growth; It has been observed that the effect on carbon dioxide emissions is positive, but renewable energy consumption has no effect on carbon dioxide emissions. On the other hand, according to the long-term coefficients of the variables obtained, it is among the findings that primary energy consumption in Turkey increases carbon emissions more in the long-term compared to economic growth, that is, it causes more damage to the environment.
