 This paper examined the relationship between electricity consumption from renewable and non-renewable sources and the load capacity factor, LCF, of BRICS-T countries over the period 1990 to 2018. The authors found that renewable energy consumption had a positive effect on LCF, while electricity consumption, economic growth, and industrialization had negative effects. Additionally, the authors found that the non-linear effect of renewable energy consumption was significant and increased the LCF. Based on their findings, the authors recommended policies that promote renewable energy consumption and discourage electricity consumption, economic growth, and industrialization.
