Abstract

As most Arab countries produce and export a large share of oil and gas to world markets, it is important to focus in this chapter on these sectors to find out about the economic effects on these economies. In addition, with the development of non-renewable energies and with the major debates and actions undertaken to promote greener economies, this chapter aims to characterize the main trends affecting both renewable and non-renewable energy in Arab countries. The question related to the promotion of greener activities in this part of the world is tackled through the use of Environmental Performance Index in relation to the use of energy. Promising results are attained based on descriptive statistics, trends, and regression analyses. They show that Arab countries need to further account for the knowledge economy to diversify their use of energy and promote better environmental performance.
