Abstract :The concepts of environment and environmental sensitivity, which started to make themselves felt after the second half of the twentieth century, have had a significant impact on almost every discipline, especially since the beginning of the twenty-first century. With the increase in industrialization, the negative impact of both industrial facilities and final industrial products on the environment has opened the concepts of economics and economic development to discussion in this context. The transition from fossil energy sources to nuclear energy and the use of renewable energy sources in production, carbon emissions and economic growth have become a multidisciplinary field of study, which are closely related to each other. In this study, in which data from the period between 1982 and 2020 are used, the long-term relationship between the amount of carbon emissions, per capita gross domestic product, nuclear energy and renewable energy was subjected to panel cointegration test and a long-term significant relationship between carbon emission and economic growth was examined. a relationship has been identified. On the other hand, no significant relationship was found between nuclear and renewable energy production and carbon emissions.
