  1. 21. The Key Drivers of the Final Energy Consumption in the Italian and Swedish Residential Sector

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Författare :Giovanni Poppi; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Residential; Tapio decoupling; LMDI decomposition; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis analyses the energy consumption of the Italian and Swedish residential sector during the last two decades. It has two main purposes: (1) to test the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis that stipulate a decoupling relation between environmental harm and economic growth and (2) to investigate on four factors that could explain such decoupling relation.

  2. 22. The Effect of Entrepreneurship,  Technology, and Innovation on the Environmental Kuznets Curve : An investigation of the N-shaped EKC and its relation to business activities in developed and developing countries

    Magister-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Nationalekonomi; Linköpings universitet/Filosofiska fakulteten

    Författare :Esther Kövendi; Olivia Nagy; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Environmental Kuznets Curve hypothesis; Renewable energy; Technology; Innovation; Entrepreneurship; Sustainable development;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis examines the impact of entrepreneurship, technology, and innovation on the Environmental Kuznets Curve, using data from 2006-2016. Most studies either focus on the relationship between economic growth and CO2 emissions or the relationship between business activities and economic growth. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Environmental Kuznets Curve in Sweden - A regression analysis of the relationship between CO2 emissions and economic growth in Sweden during the years of 1960-2018

    Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för nationalekonomi med statistik

    Författare :Daniel Forsström; Oscar Johansson; [2020-07-06]
    Nyckelord :Environmental Kuznets Curve; EKC; CO2 emissions in Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : The Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) is a theory suggesting the existence of an inverted U-shaped relationship between emissions and economic growth. In today’s world of environmental awareness, it is an interesting topic since it suggests that when economic growth reaches a certain point, pollution actually starts decreasing as economic welfare increases.

  4. 24. An Inverted U: Testing for a Swedish Municipal Environmental Kuznets Curve with an Inequality Perspective

    C-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Författare :Johan Faxner; Carl Edvin Steinvall; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Environmental Degradation; Environmental Kuznets Curve; Income Inequality; Swedish Municipalities;

    Sammanfattning : The Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis suggests a relationship between environmental degradation and economic development where degradation initially increases with economic development until a certain point where additional development is associated with decreasing degradation. In the literature, the effect of economic inequality on this relationship has been studied from both theoretical and empirical viewpoints. LÄS MER

  5. 25. The environmental Kuznets curve : Investigating the relationship between renewable energy and economic growth

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Naturresurser och hållbar utveckling

    Författare :Emil Forsén; [2020]
    Nyckelord :renewable energy; environmental Kuznets curve; granger causality; economic growth;

    Sammanfattning : The environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis describes the relationship between economic growth and environmental degradation through an inverted U-shape where environmental degradation first increases with economic growth, to later stagnate and decline as economic growth reaches specific threshold limits. The aim of this study is to investigate the EKC hypothesis when environmental degradation is measured through a country’s renewable energy implementation. LÄS MER
