Türkiye’de Yenilenebilir Enerji Tüketimi, Tarım ve CO2 Emisyonu İlişkisi

Bu çalışmanın amacı, tarımsal katma değer, ekonomik büyüme, yenilenemez ve yenilenebilir enerji tüketimi, kentleşme oranı, dışa açıklık oranı ve CO2 emisyonunu ilişkisini Türkiye için 1968-2014 yıllarını kapsayan dönem için ARDL sınır testi kullanılarak açıklamaktır. Analiz sonuçları, modele dâhil edilen değişkenler arasında uzun dönemli bir ilişki olduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca, Türkiye’de ÇKE hipotezinin varlığı doğrulanmıştır. Ayrıca, tarımsal katma değerin, yenilenemez enerji tüketiminin, ticari serbestleşmenin ve kentleşmenin hem kısa hem de uzun dönemde CO2 emisyonunu artırdığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Diğer yandan, yenilenebilir enerji tüketiminin kısa dönemde karbon emisyonunu azalttığı ancak uzun dönemde yenilenebilir enerji tüketiminin etkisinin istatistiksel olarak anlamsız olduğu görülmektedir.

Renewable Energy Consumption, Agriculture and CO2 Emissions Nexus in Turkey

The purpose of this study is to explain the relationship between agricultural value added, economic growth, non-renewable and renewable energy consumption, urbanization rate, trade openness rate and CO2 emission in Turkey over the period 1968-2014 using ARDL bound test. Analysis results showed that there is a long-run relationship between the variables included in the model. In addition, it is confirmed the existence of the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis in Turkey. In addition, it is concluded that agricultural value added, non-renewable energy consumption, trade openness and urbanization increase CO2 emissions in both short and long-run. On the other hand, renewable energy consumption reduces carbon emissions in the short-run, but the impact of renewable energy consumption on CO2 emission in the long-run is statistically insignificant.
