Abstract: Energy is an essential factor for countries to accomplish sustainable development and the importance of renewable energy has enhancing day by day. Over the last three decades the relationship between renewable energy consumption (RNW) and economic growth as well as energy consumption (EC) and financial development (FD) has intensely studied. In this paper the relationship between RNW, non-renewable energy consumption (non-RNW) and FD is investigated for top emerging countries of Bloomberg. The financial system deposits to GDP, deposit money bank assets to GDP and private credit to GDP have considered as FD indicators in the paper that investigates the period of 1980-2018. The long-term relationship between the variables was studied with Westerlund (2007) panel cointegration test and the direction of this relationship was examined with Pesaran (2006) CCE-MG panel cointegration estimator. The existence of causality among the variables was analyzed with Dumitrescu and Hurlin (2012) panel causality test. According to the cointegration test results, a positive long-run relationship was found between RNW and FD. Also, there is a bidirectional causality finding between RNW and FD, and there is a one-way causality finding from FD to non-RNW.
