The widespread consumption of non-renewable energy, along with the widespread increase in economic activity over the past few decades, has had broad environmental implications. These consequences include rising global temperatures, climate change, rising sea levels, and ultimately escalating international disputes. In recent years, some countries have begun extensive efforts to make more use of renewable energy potentials. These efforts have been in line with the greater benefits of using these energies as well as observing international agreements to reduce global temperatures. Indeed, in recent decades sustainable economic growth has become an important goal for most of the world's economies. To this end is necessary to stabilize or reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This necessitates the transition from polluting energy-based economic activities to less environmentally-friendly, technology-based and consumer-friendly economic activities. CO2 was selected by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) in selected countries using a static, dynamic, and long-term coefficient of combined data over the period 1990–2016. The results of this study showed that technical innovations and non-renewable energies had a positive effect on CO2 emissions, but the effect of renewable energies on CO2 emissions was negative and significant. Also, the effect of economic growth on CO2 emission is Positive and significant.
