CATALAN ALONSO, Horacio. Impact of renewable energies on greenhouse gas emissions in Mexico. Prob. Des [online]. 2021, vol.52, n.204, pp.59-83. Epub 06-Abr-2021. ISSN 0301-7036. https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2021.204.69611.
This article seeks to analyze the relationship between greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, income level (GDP), and consumption of renewable and non-renewable energy in Mexico for the period 1990-2015. The Autoregressive Distributed Lags (ARDL) approach demonstrates that income and non-renewable energies are the main variables that explain the trajectory of GHG emissions. The consumption of renewable energies has a marginal long-term impact, with an elasticity of -0.021. This situation is a significant obstacle to the objective of effecting change in Mexico’s energy matrix towards a sustainable development path that includes a lower carbon intensity.
