Abstract
Exploring the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in renewable energy (RE) development is pivotal for seizing technological opportunities and achieving climate objectives. This study uses wavelet analysis to examine the correlation between AI and RE in China. Our findings indicate a co-movement between AI and RE from 2014 to 2016 and a positive influence from AI to RE emerging from late 2018 to 2022. This suggests that AI acts as a facilitator for China's energy transition. Nevertheless, this effect is not constant; it becomes more pronounced with advancements in AI technology. These outcomes align with the techno-economic paradigms framework, implying that China can benefit from AI breakthroughs to accelerate its energy transition. Future policy efforts may focus on fostering collaboration among the government, businesses, and universities to promote AI and RE development.
