Çalışma, ekonomik büyüme, doğal kaynak rantı ve yenilenebilir enerji tüketimi gibi faktörlerin, ekonomilerde daha yüksek çevresel sürdürülebilirliği gösteren yük kapasitesi faktörünü artırmaya katkıda bulunup bulunmadığını incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma, 1990-2021 dönemi için veri topladı. Ampirik çalışmalar için çalışma, panel kesit bağımlılık test teknikleri, panel eğim homojenlik test teknikleri, panel ikincil birim kök test teknikleri, eş bütünleşme test teknikleri, panel kantil uzun dönem tahmin test teknikleri ve panel nedensellik teknikleri dahil olmak üzere çeşitli panel ekonometrik yöntemler uyguladı. Genel sonuçlar, ekonomik büyüme, doğal kaynak rantı ve yenilenebilir enerji tüketiminin, yük kapasitesi faktörünü artırarak hem ekonomik hem de çevresel sürdürülebilirliği sağlayabilen çevre dostu faktörler olduğunu göstermiştir. Çalışma ayrıca gelişmiş ülkelerin, panel grubundaki gelişmekte olan ülkelere çevresel ve ekonomik sürdürülebilirliği sağlamada yardımcı olabileceğini de ortaya koymuştur. Ayrıca, panel nedensellik testi tekniklerinden elde edilen sonuçlar, ekonomik büyümeden yük kapasitesi faktörüne ve yük kapasitesi faktöründen doğal kaynak rantına doğru tek yönlü nedensellik ilişkisini, yük kapasitesi faktörü ile yenilenebilir enerji tüketimi arasında ise çift yönlü nedensellik ilişkisini ortaya koymuştur. Çalışma, mevcut çalışmadan elde edilen genel bulguların bir sonucuyla son bulmaktadır.

The study intends to examine whether the factors including economic growth, natural resource rent and renewable energy consumption can contribute to enhance the load capacity factor which indicates the higher environmental sustainability in the economies. The study collected data for the period between 1990-2021. For empirical studies, the study applied several panel econometric methods including panel cross-sectional dependence test techniques, panel slope homogeneity test techniques, panel secondary unit-root test techniques, cointegration test techniques, panel quantile long-run estimation test techniques and panel causality techniques. The overall results indicated that economic growth, natural resource rent and renewable energy consumption are all environmentally friendly factors that can ensure both economic and environmental sustainability by enhancing the load capacity factor. The study also revealed that developed countries can help developing countries in the panel group to ensure environmental and economic sustainability. Furthermore, the results obtained from panel causality test techniques indicated the unidirectional causality relationship from economic growth to the load capacity factor and from the load capacity factor to natural resource rent, while the study indicates the bidirectional causality relationship between the load capacity factor and renewable energy consumption. The study ends with a conclusion of the overall findings obtained from the current study.
