Abstract

Using standard models and analyzing the relationship between growth and electricity
consumption, it was found that there is a significant positive impact of nuclear power generation
on economic growth. This is consistent with the first hypothesis that there is a positive influence
relationship between economic growth and the production of electricity from nuclear energy,
and therefore, through the results of estimating the fixed effects model, the model can be
accepted from an economic point of view considering that the economic theory corresponds to
the obtained results.
