Özet

The article examines whether a long-run relationship between per capita renewable electricity consumption and gross domestic product (GDP) exists employing panel integration and cointegration techniques for a dynamic heterogeneous panel of 19 Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries over the period 1980-2008. Our findings support the existence of a long-run equilibrium relation between renewable electricity consumption and GDP. Further, the evidence points to unidirectional causality from a GDP to renewable electricity consumption.
