The dynamics of oil markets are influenced by both international and local contexts, which determine their potential for success and sustainability. This article uses a conceptual methodology to analyze the characteristics that are present in successful energy markets. These characteristics can help identify inhibitors and barriers that may hinder the growth and development of the market. The analytical-propositive methodological design consists of three phases: firstly, a diagnosis is conducted to describe the costs associated with oil production, which will allow for the identification of economic characteristics. Secondly, attributes of the Colombian oil market are identified through a documentary and regulatory analysis. Finally, strategic guidelines are inferred, which can be used as inputs for the formulation of energy policies. The results highlight that sustainable development policies must involve both public and private actors to strengthen decision-making and the quality of processes, thereby providing greater scope.

Spillover Effects between Oil, Gold, Stock, and Exchange Rate Returns in Thailand: An Extended Joint Connected TVP-VAR Approach
Authors: Harnphattananusorn Supanee
Published: September 2024

The objective of this study is to analyze the spillover effects among the returns of oil, gold, the stock market, and exchange rates in Thailand. Using the time-varying parameter vector autoregression model (TVP-VAR) with extended joint connectedness and data from April 2002 to March 2024, our analysis reveals a moderate level of the dynamic linkage among these returns. We observe that the dynamic connectedness among all returns varies over time, influenced by global economic events and country situations. Notably, in Thailand's landscape, stock market and gold returns act as net shock transmitters, with the stock market exhibiting the highest volatility among all variables, while oil and exchange rate markets function as net recipients. These insights significantly contribute to understanding asset and commodity markets and offer valuable policy implications for effectively managing these markets.
Examining the Impacts of Grid Tariff on the Economic Viability of Photovoltaic Energy: The Case of Residential Power Generation in Brazil
Authors: Branco José Eduardo Holler , Junior Paulo Nocera Alves , Okamura Fernando , Melo Isotilia Costa
Published: September 2024

On-grid photovoltaic systems (PVs) hold immense potential as source of renewable energy, particularly in nations with abundant solar irradiation and large territories. Brazil, in particular, has emerged as a noteworthy example, driving an annual PV capacity installation rate above 150% since 2013. However, the recent Normative Resolution 1.059/2023, stablished by the National Electricity Energy Agency, has introduced grid tariff for utilizing grid infrastructure in Brazil. In light of this, our study aims to assess the impacts of this policy on the economic feasibility of medium-sized residential PVs (rooftops). Our finds demonstrated that the financial indicators for investing in on-grid PVs within medium-sized family homes in Brazil were very attractive prior to 2023, with an average Internal Return Rate (IRR) of 22.7% and a payback of 5.0 years. However, as consequence of the new policy these indicators will deteriorate and reach an average IRR of 15.7% and an average payback of 7.2 years, progressively until 2030. Additionally, it will increase almost 50% the PV electricity levelized cost. We recommend further research directions for policymakers and researchers encompassing several strategies for encouraging again the PV energy in the country, such as promoting joint procurement initiatives, and implementing subsidies for reducing photovoltaic system prices.

Published: September 2024

In this article, we investigate the dynamics the intricacies of fluctuations during periods of economic expansion and contraction, and examining the connections between the length of energy cycles and the influential factors could affect them. Utilizing the extended BBQ algorithm, we firstly identify turning points and, then apply the Cox hazard Model to analyze factors that affect the cycle phases, including geopolitical conflict and economic situations over the period from January 1990 to July 2022. The results reveal the presence of asymmetry in growth phases, highlighting the need for policymakers to understand the factors driving these phases. Market expansion is driven by positive interest rate and US dollar shocks, while stability relies on competent management. During economic contractions, energy costs are influenced by economic growth. Geopolitical risks and economic uncertainty require effective risk mitigation, and policy changes significantly impact the energy market during expansion phases. The study also suggests that Conferences of Parties (COP) meetings have a nuanced influence on the energy market, warranting further research.

Published: September 2024

This study identifies key elements that facilitate the transition of power generation from non-renewable to renewable sources. Annual data from 1977 to 2018 and an autoregressive distributed lag model are used in the study. The gross domestic product, industrialization, urbanization, fuel, and power prices, as well as the dollar exchange rate, are employed as independent variables. The study takes the Iran-Iraq War and nuclear sanctions into account. The findings show that, in the short run, all variables—aside from the exchange rate—have an impact on the generation of electricity from renewable sources. Only natural gas prices, industrialization, and gross domestic product are effective in the short run, for power generation from non-renewable energies. In the long run, all variables, with the exception of electricity price, are effective in producing power from renewable sources, and all variables, with the exception of fuel prices and industrialization, are effective in producing electricity from non-renewable sources. The findings also indicate that nuclear sanctions have a detrimental impact on the production of electricity from renewable sources and a beneficial impact on the production of electricity from non-renewable sources.

Authors: Kerrouche Noureddine , Zehri Chokri
Published: September 2024

Companies’ Investments in Renewable Energy (CIRE) offer well-known environmental and social benefits, but their economic impact remains unclear, particularly at the microeconomic level. Using the Generalized Method of Moments approach, our empirical study of 93 companies in Saudi Arabia from 2000 to 2023 assessed CIRE’ effects on GDP growth, FDI inflows, employment, and exports. Our findings indicate that increased investments in renewable energy have significantly boosted GDP growth, attracted higher FDI inflows, and generated new employment opportunities, suggesting a favorable investment environment. However, the potential for export growth within this sector appears limited. Robustness checks and instrumental variables confirm these findings. The study provides policy recommendations for maximizing economic benefits from CIRE in Saudi Arabia.

Published: September 2024

This study investigates the dynamic relationships between renewable energy consumption, labor force, gross fixed capital (GFC), and GDP across ASEAN-5 nations from 1984 to 2020. Utilizing data from the World Development Indicators (WDI), the Energy Information Agency (EIA), and national labor statistics, we employ unit root tests, ARDL bound testing for cointegration, and Toda-Yamamoto causality procedures. Our findings indicate significant long-term cointegration between the studied variables in Indonesia and the Philippines, suggesting persistent economic relationships, while results for Malaysia show no cointegration and remain inconclusive for Thailand. The economic analysis reveals that GFC robustly drives GDP growth across these countries, whereas the impacts from labor force and renewable energy consumption are more variable. Causality tests further demonstrate that renewable energy consumption significantly fosters GDP growth in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore, aligning with the growth hypothesis. Conversely, findings for the Philippines and Thailand support the neutrality hypothesis, indicating no direct causal impacts. These insights underline the crucial role of tailored renewable energy strategies to enhance economic growth and sustainability in ASEAN-5, providing valuable policy implications for regional energy governance.

Authors: Truong Loc Dong , Nguyen Anh Thi Kim , Friday H. Swint , Doan Nhien Tuyet
Published: September 2024

This study is devoted to investigating the asymmetric effects of oil prices on stock returns for Hanoi Stock Exchange (HNX). The data used in this study are weekly series of HNX-Index, WTI crude oil prices and geopolitical risks (GPRs) Index covering the period from January 2, 2010 to December 31, 2023. This study employed a nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) bounds testing approach to estimate the short-term and long-term asymmetric effects of oil prices on the market returns. We found that in the short-term, oil prices have negative asymmetric effects on the market returns. Specifically, one percent increase in positive changes of oil prices immediately leads to 0.0085 percent decrease in the market returns. However, one percent increase in negative changes of oil prices is associated with 0.1487 percent decrease in the market returns. In the long-term, the estimated results confirm that both the negative and positive changes of oil prices have significantly negative effects on the market returns. Finally, the results obtained from the error correction model (ECM) indicate that 81.54 percent of the disequilibria from the previous week are converged and corrected back to the long-term equilibrium in the current week.

Authors: Suárez Santa Cruz Liliana Del Carmen , Puican Rodriguez Victor Hugo , Ferré López Diego Isidro , Inoñan Olivera Juan José
Published: September 2024

Through an empirical analysis of the impact of determinants on energy efficiency and electricity prices using monthly data, we compare the outcomes of energy strategies in Ecuador and Peru from 2014 to 2023. OLS regression models with Newey-West matrices are applied in two contexts: Energy efficiency and energy prices. Energy efficiency is explained through variables such as the proportion of renewable energies, national income, and the international oil price. The results indicate that in Ecuador, the proportion of renewable energies is positively related to energy efficiency, whereas in Peru, energy efficiency mainly depends on the trend component capturing changes in productivity and the decline in fuel prices. Furthermore, electricity prices are sensitive to fluctuations in oil prices, especially in Peru, due to its dependence on thermoelectric generation. The energy strategies of both countries, including the integration of renewables and the management of fossil fuel costs, play crucial roles in determining energy efficiency and prices. This study provides a comprehensive view of how various economic and structural factors influence the performance of the energy sector in both nations, highlighting the differences in their approaches and outcomes.

Authors: Dsouza Suzan , Krishnamoorthy K.
Published: September 2024

The research investigates the impact of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) excellence on the corporate valuation in the oil and gas sector, addressing the problem of quantifying ESG's influence on market worth. The study utilized a comprehensive dataset from the Thomson Reuters database, covering 960 global firms over the period 2011-2022. Through empirical analysis, the study revealed that while ESG excellence directly correlates negatively with corporate valuation, its indirect benefits through enhanced profitability and operational efficiency are significant. Specifically, ESG excellence improves operational efficiency, which in turn positively impacts market value. The study found no direct significant impact of ESG excellence on profitability, but enhanced operational efficiency mediated by ESG leads to increased corporate valuation. These findings highlight the importance of converting ESG efforts into tangible financial benefits, emphasizing profitability and operational efficiency as key mediators. The study concludes that ESG practices, when effectively integrated into business strategies, significantly enhance a firm's market value and operational efficiency. This research provides actionable insights for policymakers, corporate strategists, and investors, promoting the adoption of robust ESG practices to achieve sustainable growth and long-term financial success in the oil and gas sector. Future research should focus on industry-specific analyses, longitudinal studies, and the development of sophisticated ESG metrics to further elucidate these relationships.

Authors: Satrianto Alpon , Ikhsan Akmil , Dirma Evo Yunanda , Candrianto Candrianto , Juniardi Egy , Gusti Mia Ayu
Published: September 2024

Renewable energy has changed the development paradigm by prioritizing environmental sustainability in every stage of the country development. Therefore, this research specifically provides an overview of how the institutional quality is used as a basis for policy in developing countries. The research results show that the institutional quality with indicators of government effectiveness, voice and accountability have a significant effect, while regulatory quality and rule of law do not have a significant effect on renewable energy. Then, tax revenue, foreign direct investment, domestic credit have a significant effect, but government expenditure does not have a significant effect on renewable energy. These results are proof that every country must have strong quality institutions with a clear and comprehensive policy scheme considering that energy transition targets are not carried out easily, so they require large amounts of financing, especially from the private sector. The government fiscal space tends to be narrow, which is an obstacle in developing countries in allocating costs for the energy transition, so it must be directed at financing strategies contained in appropriate policies.

Published: September 2024

Education and electricity access are argued to be important determinants in the income inequality literature, especially with regard to developing countries. This present study explores in Nigeria the roles of both education and electricity access, as well as the interaction of the aforementioned variables for income inequality over the period of 1990 to 2019. Utilizing Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) estimation preceded by the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) unit root test and ARDL bounds test for cointegration, the study found that while there was no long-run relationship between income inequality and it's determining variables, including education and electricity access, in the short run, electricity access was significant for reducing income inequality, while education was not significant for income inequality in Nigeria. On the other hand, education in the presence of greater electricity access was found to play a significant role in raising income inequality in Nigeria. The policy implications derived from the study findings emphasized the need for greater creation of employment opportunities by the Nigerian government, while electricity is made affordable for greater access by the Nigerian populace and is adequate in supply. Recommendations were also proffered based on the findings of the study.

Authors: Hassan Ali Yusuf , Mohamed Mohamed Abdukadir , Mohamed Abdirahman Ahmed , Osman Bashir Mohamed
Published: September 2024

In this study, we investigated the role of the urban population and energy consumption on environmental degradation in Somalia. The study used the ARDL model and Granger causality test with time-series data from 1989 to 2021. The study found that increasing the urban population and domestic investment positively influenced environmental degradation in the short and long run. If the urban population increases, environmental damage will increase as they use more carbon dioxide emissions. Similarly, increasing domestic investment also contributes to environmental degradation. The study also found a causal effect between the urban population and domestic investment, while the urban population and energy consumption caused domestic investment. Moreover, there was a bidirectional causal effect between urbanization and energy consumption. Based on these results, policymakers are recommended to prioritize the development of urban planning and regulatory institutions that focus on environmental consciousness to guide sustainable urban growth. This should include measures to control pollution, preserve green spaces, and promote energy-efficient practices. Furthermore, targeted policies are needed to support domestic investment while ensuring it aligns with environmental preservation goals. Incentives for adopting eco-friendly industries and technologies can be explored to balance economic growth with environmental protection.

Authors: Jan Meer , Baloch Amdadullah , Bawazir Abdullah Abdulaziz , Qayyum Abdul , Mgammal Mahfoudh Hussein
Published: September 2024

This study examines the effect of innovation on inclusive growth in 63 developing countries and employs System Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimation techniques. The study used the global innovation index to measure innovation. In addition, we construct an index of inclusive growth. Further, due to the complex nature of inclusive growth, using a single index may not provide the full picture. So, for substantial empirical support, the study uses a set of dimensions of inclusive growth separately. The empirical results show a positive relationship between the measures of innovation with inclusive growth. Further, the study also constructs indifference curves for selected developing economies to measure the inclusiveness in growth. Finally, it is suggested that developing economies should put in policies to promote innovation activities that include poor segments of society to improve the impact of innovation on inclusive growth.

This study aims to determine the effect of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) learning model on students' mathematical reasoning abilities. The population in this study were all students of class VII MTs. Al-Hidayah. The sampling technique in this study was purposive sampling, in which the sample was taken with certain considerations. Then it was found that class VII A had 28 students as the experimental class and class VII B had 28 students as the control class. The research method used in this study is a quasi-experimental (quasi experiment research) with a nonequivalent group design type. The research design at this time used was to provide a pretest and also a posttest in the experimental class and control class. The research instrument used was a test of mathematical reasoning abilities on students, amounting to 5 questions in the description of which the instrument had been tested for validity and reliability. The results of the t-test on the posttest data of the experimental class that have been carried out with a significant level of 5% are obtained by the price of t_ (count)> t table (2.4892> 2.0048) so that H0 is rejected and H1 is accepted, which means that there is an effect of mathematical reasoning ability between students who are given the PBL learning model with those given the conventional learning model. Meanwhile, to determine the effect size of 0.67 with the classification of medium or medium. So it can be concluded that the PBL learning model has an influence on students' mathematical reasoning abilities

The ability of students to understand mathematical concepts is very important, because when students understand mathematical concepts, students can apply and use these concepts to further abilities, for example students can analyze a problem after understanding the concept. If students do not master the concept, it is certain that students cannot continue material that requires abilities beyond the ability to understand concepts. One technique in learning mathematics to improve students' ability to understand mathematical concepts is to use the Think Pairs Share (TPS) learning model developed by Frank Lyman Laura. The Think Pairs Share (TPS) learning model is one of the cooperative learning models. Learning with the TPS method is learning that stimulates student activity to think and discuss the results of their thoughts with their groups and also stimulates students' courage to express their opinions in front of the class. In addition, it can encourage and provide opportunities for students to restate opinions or ideas, listen to other groups, and respond appropriately to the opinions of other groups. The atmosphere generated will be more enjoyable because students learn and exchange ideas with peers so as to improve students' ability to understand mathematical concepts.

One of the learning models that can be used to involve students in solving a problem is a problem based learning model that can be a bridge in the learning process of mathematics. The purpose of this study is to determine whether there is an effect of the problem based learning model on the mathematics learning outcomes of the material of sequences and series in class XI of SMA Negeri 5 Prabumulih. The population in this study were all students of class XI SMA Negeri 5 Prabumulih with a sample of class XI IPA 1 as the experimental class and class XI IPA 2 as the control class. Based on the calculation of student learning outcomes using the problem based learning model, totaling 36 students, the average value = 75,00 and the standard deviation value is = 12,479 and student learning outcomes without using the problem based learning model are 33. students, obtained an average value of  = 53,94 and the standard deviation is = 13,565. After the data were analyzed, the values of tcount = 6.718 and ttable = 1.998 were obtained. This means that t count is in the rejection area of H0, meaning H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. Thus, it can be concluded that there is an effect of the problem based learning model on the mathematics learning outcomes of the material of sequences and series in class XI of SMA Negeri 5 Prabumulih, the truth is accepted.

Ethnomathematics is a study that combines mathematics and culture. Culture is a legacy passed down from ancestors that becomes a characteristic or characteristic of a particular region, one of the regions that has characteristics that are famous for its culture is the city of Palembang. Palembang city has various cultures that are in great demand by outsiders such as the Limas traditional house and jumputan cloth. Discussing about culture, this is certainly inseparable from learning concepts found in everyday life, one of which is the concept of learning mathematics. Where in this case the researcher takes the concept of mathematics on the phytagorean theorem associated with Limas houses and jumputan cloth. The type of research that researchers use is ethnographic qualitative research. Data sources are primary data and secondary data. Data collection techniques through interviews, observations and documentation. The data obtained was then analysed by data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions and verification. The result of this research is that Palembang culture, namely the Limas house roof, has the application of the phytagoras theorem concept. In the motifs of jumputan fabric patterns and the plan of the Limas house looking sideways contains the concept of proving the truth of the phytagoras theorem.
