A Long-Run Relationship Investigation of Energy Consumption and Air Pollution in Togo
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 30, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
The world is facing the challenge of global warming and climate change issues. Energy use is crucial to human survival and development. Improvements in lifestyles have historically been associated with increases in energy consumption and the access to appropriate energy services has been seen as a necessary precondition for development. This research dealt with the oil and electricity consumption evaluated the impact of energy consumption on air pollution. It is generally focused on the impact of implementing energy planning policies and measures on sector energy demand and pollutants emissions, particularly CO2. Based on panel data techniques using Eviews, the research investigated a long-run relationship between energy consumption and air pollution as CO2 emission through Togolese annual data for the period 1992-2012.This work that is dealt with the oil and electricity consumption evaluated the impact of energy consumption on air pollution. Results overwhelming showed that CO2 emission and energy consumption moved together in the long-run. Findings appeared that first, energy consumption is granger caused the Co2 emission and Co2 emission is granger caused the energy consumption. Findings also suggested that in long-run, energy consumption would impact on the air pollution.
