ANALISIS DECOUPLING KONSUMSI LISTRIK DAN DETERMINAN EMISI KARBON: STUDI KASUS NEGARA ASEAN

Abstract

During 2000 – 2018, electricity played an important role in increasing carbon emissions in ASEAN. In this final project, the emission control factor was seen from the energy supply, electricity consumption, GDP, and the total population in ASEAN-9. The purpose of this study is to examine the status of the decoupling between electricity consumption and economic growth because most of the electricity sources in ASEAN are fossilized. As a result, 9 countries have experienced expansive negative decoupling or an increase in electricity consumption that is higher than the increase in national income. This explanation illustrated that the increase in national income still depended on electricity consumption. On the other hand, the source of electrical energy mostly comes from fossils which has the potential to cause an increase in carbon emissions.  Furthermore, seeing the empirical estimation of long-term and short-term use of FEM and ECM methods by Eviews 10.  the results of the regression show that the supply of energy has a positive effect on carbon emissions in both long and short term. An increase in energy supply will have an impact on increasing carbon emissions. Electricity consumption also has a positive effect on carbon emissions in the short term.
