Sustainable development has become a major focus of attention worldwide, with numerous initiatives aimed at improving economic development, social equality, natural resource consumption, and social and healthy living while preserving the quality of life. Energy consumption is a crucial input to economic activities, but its impact on sustainable development can be both positive and negative. In this study, the impact of renewable and non-renewable energy sources and CO2 emissions on sustainable development in Turkiye was investigated using time series analysis for the years between 1972 and 2015. The results suggest that increasing the use of renewable energy sources has a positive effect on sustainable development, whereas fossil fuel energy consumption and CO2 emissions have a negative impact. The findings of this research have important implications for Turkiye's energy policy and its efforts to achieve sustainable development goals.
