Economic policy uncertainty, renewable energy and environmental degradation: Evidence from Egypt.

This study contributes to the growing but still limited body of literature on the impact of economic policy uncertainty, renewable energy usage, and economic growth on environmental degradation in Egypt. Using the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) bound test, we examine the existence of cointegration relationships in Egypt over the period 1990-2018. Our results indicate that economic policy uncertainty is positively associated with environmental degradation in both the short and long run. Additionally, we find that economic growth exacerbates environmental degradation in both the short and long term. Finally, renewable energy consumption has a significant negative effect on environmental degradation in the long run. Therefore, ensuring economic policy stability is crucial for maintaining environmental quality. To this end, Egyptian policymakers should prioritize low-carbon research and development techniques, as well as the adoption of renewable energy sources to mitigate environmental degradation.
