초록

파리 협정의 채택으로 전 세계적으로 CO2 감축의 중요성이 증대되고 있다. 또한 2013년부터는 경제성장과 CO2 배출 사이의 탈동조화현상이 나타나기 시작했다. 이러한 상황에 주목하여 경제성장뿐 아니라 다른 변수의 CO2 배출에 대한 영향을 분석하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 1인당 CO2 배출량에 대해 경제자유지수, 재생에너지 발전율, 1인당 에너지 소비량 및 GDP가 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위해 패널 데이터를 활용하여 실증 분석하였다. 분석기간은 2005년부터 2013년까지이며 총 111개 국가를 대상으로 패널 분석을 수행하였다. 모든 설명변수를 사용한 모형(Model 1), 1인당 에너지 소비량을 제외한 모형(Model 2), 1인당 GDP를 제외한 모형(Model 3)의 3가지 모형으로 분석을 수행하였다. 그 결과, Model 2에서만 경제자유지수가 유의한 값을 보였다. 재생에너지 발전율은 모든 모형에서 CO2 배출과 유의한 음의 상관관계를 보였으며, GDP 및 에너지 소비량의 경우 검토한 모든 모형에서 CO2 배출과 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다.

Abstract

The importance of reducing CO2 emissions worldwide has increased after adopting the Paris Agreement. The decoupling between economic growth and CO2 emissions is also observed from 2013. In view of this situation we wanted to analyze the effect of other variables on CO2 emissions as well as economic growth. In this study we used panel data to analyze the effect of economic freedom index, renewable energy generation rate, per capita energy consumption and GDP on per capita CO2 emissions. For the panel analysis, we used panel data from 2005 to 2013 in 111 countries. Three models were investigated: including all variables (Model 1), excluding energy consumption (Model 2), and excluding GDP (Model 3). As results, the economic freedom index was only significant in Model 2. Renewable energy generation rate showed meaningful as negative correlation with CO2 emissions. GDP and energy consumption showed significant positive correlations in all models.
