Abstract The literature reveals that linear models do not accurately represent the asymmetric relationship between economic growth and energy consumption (EC). To fill this gap, we examined EC in a non-linear panel autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) framework of 85 countries as whole sample Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa (BRICS), Next Eleven, Big Four Western Europe, Asia-Pacific...
