Renewable Resource Curse Hypothesis: Could Renewable Resources Foster Sustainable Development?
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study explores whether the resource curse hypothesis applies to renewable energy by introducing a novel metric of renewable resource rent. Using a panel dataset of 46 countries (2010–2022), we define renewable rent as the product of electricity generation and the gap between industrial electricity price and levelized cost (LCOE).
