Summary
This study aims to assess the effects of renewable and non-renewable energy, green technologies, environmental taxes, political stability, foreign direct investment, trade openness, forest area, urbanisation, and population growth, as control variables, on green growth across 33 OECD countries from 2000 to 2019. Unlike previous studies, this research employs the green growth index as a measurement of green growth. The findings indicate that renewable energy, green technology, political stability, and environmental taxes positively influence green growth, whereas non-renewable energy negatively affects it.
