Electricity consumption in Australia: the role of clean energy in reducing CO₂ emissions

Electricity consumption is the primary source of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in Australia. Hence, this research study aims to analyse role clean energy on CO2 and electricity Australia by making use yearly data, 1980–2014 a battery time series econometric techniques. The autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) method employed investigate short- long-run estimates, while Bayer Hanck (2013) test used examine cointegration relationship among variables. results from ARDL technique show that 1% increase reduces per capita 5.50% 1.19%, respectively long-run. findings also confirm significant association As such, it emphasized government should take further initiatives towards wider deployment use, along with sustainable urbanization reduce
