Abstract:
This study investigates the time-varying interactions among climate warming, renewable energy consumption (REC) and rare earth market using TVP-VAR-SV model. We focus on the stock performance in the rare earth financial market. Our empirical results show that the effects of climate warming and REC on rare earth market changes over time and increases significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The REC has short-term positive impact on rare earth market, and the positive impact of climate warming on the rare earth market has a time lag effect. In the long term, climate warming has a significant promotion effect on REC, especially during major events. The short-term positive impact of REC on the rare earth market is prominent after the signing of the Paris Agreement (PA), while its impact shows counter-cyclical fluctuations during the COVID-19 pandemic. The effect of disaggregated REC on rare earth market is obviously heterogeneous. Solar and wind energy consumption are the most important reasons for changes in rare earth market.
