Energy consumption and economic growth: the case of post-Soviet era Central Asian Countries

Öz:
The aim of this study is to estimate the impact of energy use, employment, and capital formation on realGDP for four Central Asian countries: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan using paneldata analysis between 1990 to 2018. This study uses ARDL1 approach to investigate the long-runrelationship among real GDP and energy use, employment, and capital formation. The results show an inverse relationship between real GDP and energy use, but a positive relationship real GDP and otherindependent variables, employment and capital formation. The Dolado-Lütkepohl Causality Test has beenapplied to determine the causality among the variables. Test results show that electric consumptionincreases real GDP. A unidirectional causality has been found between capital formation and real GDP.The results also show a unidirectional causality between capital and employment, confirming capitalaccumulation is a vital factor in economic growth.

Enerji tüketimi, altyapı yatırımları ve ekonomik büyüme: Sovyetler Birliği sonrası Orta Asya Ülkeleri

Öz:
Bu çalışmanın amacı, dört Orta Asya ülkesi için enerji kullanımı, istihdam ve altyapı yatırımlarının reel Gayri Safi Yurtiçi Hasıla (GSYİH) üzerindeki etkilerini belirlemektir. Kazakistan, Kırgızistan, Tacikistan ve Özbekistan için 1990-2018 dönemi panel veri analizini kullanarak Otoregressive Dağıtılmış Gecikme modeli (ARDL) ile reel GSYİH, enerji kullanımı, altyapı yatırımları ve istihdam arasındaki uzun vadeli ilişkiyi araştırmak için kullanılmıştır. Sonuçlar, reel GSYİH ile enerji kullanımı arasında ters bir ilişki olduğunu, ancak istihdam ve altyapı yatırımları ile reel GSYİH arasında pozitif bir ilişki olduğunu göstermektedir. Değişkenler arasındaki nedenselliğin belirlenmesi için Dolado-Lütkepohl Nedensellik Testi uygulanmıştır. Dolado-Lütkepohl test sonuçları, elektrik tüketiminden reel GSYİH'ya doğru bir nedensellik olduğunu göstermektedir. Altyapı yatırımları ile reel GSYİH arasında da tek yönlü bir nedensellik bulunmuştur. Sonuçlar ayrıca altyapı yatırımlarının ile istihdam arasında tek yönlü bir nedensellik olduğunu göstermektedir. Sonuçlar, bu ülkeler için altyapı yatırımlarının ülkelerin ekonomik büyümesi ve gelişmesinde önemli bir faktör olduğunu doğrulamaktadır.
