Abstract

This study principally attempts to investigate the relationship between electricity consumption on the one hand and economic growth, energy prices and technology innovation in Malaysia on the other over the period, 1970–۲۰۰۹٫ The results of this study indicate that electricity consumption and its determinants are cointegrated. Specifically, the empirical results show that income positively affects electricity consumption, while energy prices and technology innovation negatively affect it in Malaysia over a long run. The Granger causality results reveal that technology innovation Granger-cause economic growth and electricity consumption in Malaysia. Moreover, we find that electricity consumption and economic growth Granger-cause each other both in the short and in the long run. Therefore, policymakers should increase investment in electricity infrastructure to ensure that electricity supply is sufficient for economic growth and development and at the same time encourage technology innovation to minimise the usage of fossil fuels. This could strike a balance between environmental quality and economic growth in Malaysia.

۱٫ Introduction

Over the past decades, many empirical studies on energygrowth nexus have been published. Generally, they all involved the use of conventional variables with mere changes in the data span. Karanfil [1] emphasised that changing the data span is an insufficient contribution to literatures and effective policymaking. Ozturk [2] and Payne [3] highlighted that omission of relevant variable(s) and methodological flaws are two major factors that cause conflicting estimation results.
