Energy consumption, economic growth and CO2 emissions in Azerbaijan

Abstract

The primary goal of this research is to investigate the link between carbon dioxide emissions, energy consumption, and economic growth in Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan's economy is growing, and people have noticed that the country is using more energy. However, the issue of how this increase affects carbon dioxide emissions is controversial. The analyzes show that there is a linear relationship between energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. That is, as energy consumption increases, carbon dioxide emissions also increase. In addition, it is stated in the study that Azerbaijan focuses on fossil fuels in energy production and that this situation has an impact on carbon dioxide emissions. Policies such as increasing the use of renewable energy sources and increasing energy efficiency in Azerbaijan can help reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Finally, the Azerbaijan analysis shows that there is a linear relationship between energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions, and policies such as the use of renewable energy sources and increasing energy efficiency can help reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
