Energy Consumption and CO2 Emissions in Indonesia's Human Development

Abstract

This study analyzes the causality relationship between energy usage, education, health, and CO2 emissions in Indonesia. In a 21-year data analysis from 2000 to 2020, "autoregressive vectors" were used to represent the causal link between variables. The World Bank contributed the data for this research. In this study, we look at investigates the causality link between electricity usage, education, health, and CO2 emissions in Indonesia. We found that energy usage has a significant positive relationship with CO2 emissions, which means that the higher the energy consumption in Indonesia, the more threatened environmental sustainability in Indonesia is. Energy usage also has a negatively impact on the health and education of the Indonesian population. Education itself significantly increases the efficiency of energy use in Indonesia so education plays a crucial function in the efficiency of energy consumption in Indonesia. Health does not have a significant impact on environmental sustainability. Indonesia needs to make energy consumption efficient and protect the environment. The human capital that is enhanced through education is an important factor in maintaining environmental sustainability and energy consumption efficiency in Indonesia.
