Abstract

El objetivo de esta investigación es estimar el efecto de la energía sustentable y no sustentable en el crecimiento económico, tanto a nivel mundial como por grupo de países. Utilizamos datos de panel de 94 países para el periodo 2000-2016. Los países se clasifican según los niveles de ingresos utilizando el Método Atlas del Banco Mundial. Los resultados demuestran que en el periodo analizado, el efecto de las energías renovables son estadísticamente significativas a nivel global, como también en los países de ingresos altos (HIC) y en los países de ingresos medios bajos (MLIC), es decir, que las energías renovables son un importante factor en pro del crecimiento económico tanto en el corto plazo, donde se incrementa la capacidad energética de los países, y también en el largo plazo donde además de tener una mayor capacidad energética, también se contrarresta el deterioro de los recursos naturales y en consecuencia disminuye contaminación, los cuales tienen efectos negativos en el crecimiento económico. El presente estudio contribuye con resultados que aportaran con la formulación de políticas que permitan hacer un cambio estructural en materia energética de los países, incentivando el consumo de energías amigables con el medio ambiente y la economía.
