摘要
Renewable energy sources are essential in reducing carbon emission levels and promoting a global green economy. The aim of this study is to examine the sustainability of renewable energy consumption per capita in South Africa by using the annual data for the period 1965-2018. For this purpose, in addition to traditional unit root tests, various unit root tests considering different structural changes are utilized in the study. According to the obtained results, the renewable energy consumption series in South Africa is found to be stable. Thus, it is concluded that sustainability is valid because the effects of one-unit shocks in energy use are not permanent.
