Energy Consumption and Economic Growth Nexus: Insights from EU Member States by Dalina-Maria ANDREI

“…It searches for some short/long term relationships of these through a panel type model, based on the Cobb-Douglas neoclassic production function. Reference examples in the literature and tests applied for unit roots and cointegration determine our option for an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model able to identify both common coefficients of long-term relationship between variables and individual (specific to each EU member country) coefficients on short-term relationships. …”
