Productive energy consumption and economic growth: an endogenous growth model and its empirical application
Article Abstract:
An endogenous model showing the relationship between economic growth and energy consumption is presented. The model indicates that the economic growth rate increases initially in accordance with productive energy consumption but subsequently declines. It identifies the optimal growth rate as the point wherein energy consumption is equal to the competitive market share. The results indicate that government plays an important role in controlling economic growth by dictating the private sector's energy consumption pattern.
