Poland's net-zero pathways: Moderating role of carbon tax and renewable energy on electricity generation through a novel multivariate quantile-on-quantile regression approach.

The global effort to meet the Paris Agreement's target of limiting global warming to 1.5 °C and achieving net-zero CO emissions by 2050 is currently off track, with Poland facing significant challenges related to energy inefficiency and rising CO emissions. In Poland, the energy sector is responsible for 43% of greenhouse gas emissions, with transportation and buildings contributing 19% and 16%, respectively (Brzeziński and Kolinski, 2024).

The relationship between external debt and ecological footprint in SANE countries: insights from Kónya panel causality approach.

There are many studies on the relationship between energy consumption and various environmental indicators in Africa, and SANE countries in particular. However, there is a dearth of studies that relate external debt to CO emissions, and even the ecological footprint, which is a more comprehensive environmental indicator. As such, this paper applies advanced estimation techniques to explore the role of external debt in the famous energy-growth-environmental nexus in SANE countries from 1970 to 2018.
