Abstract

Currently, environmental degradation has become a global issue that needs to address frequently and also needs the attention of recent studies and regulators. Therefore, the present research examines the impact of energy consumption such as fossil fuel energy use, electric power use, and energy import along with economic growth on the ecological environment of ASEAN countries. The current study has gathered secondary data from world development indicators (WDI) from 1989 to 2019. The authors also used the pooled mean group (PMG) panel autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model and (FEM) to explore the association among the constructs. The findings revealed that fossil fuel energy use, electric power use, energy import, and economic growth have a positive association with carbon (CO2) emission and affect the ecological environment of ASEAN countries. This article guides the policymakers while formulating regulations regarding energy use and the ecological environment.
