Türkiye'de elektrik tüketiminin belirleyicileri

The main aim of this study is to determine electricity consumption in Turkey. We used annual data from 1960 to 2016 for electricity consumption level, per capita income, industrialization level, financial development, education level, carbon emission, price, urbanization, trade openness. The estimation is done by using the Phillips and Hansen's (1990) Fully Modified OLS (FMOLS) and Park's (1992) Canonical Cointegrating Regression (CCR) models. The estimations attained the results of income and carbon emission having a positive effect while urbanization and price employed a negative effect on the consumption of electricity in Turkey. The other variable showed no statistically significant results.
