چکیده

امروزه اقتصاد دیجیتال را می‌توان منبع اصلی رشد در هر اقتصادی نامید و کشورها به طور فزاینده ای به دنبال راه­حل­هایی برای توسعه اقتصاد دیجیتال و عوامل موثر بر آن هستند. همچنین روند تغییرات در ساختار سیستم انرژی، نوسانات مصرف انرژی و قیمت و امکان جایگزینی سوخت با یکدیگر، صرفه جویی در مصرف انرژی و همچنین کاهش شدت انرژی از اهمیت ویژه ای برخوردار است. بنابراین، هدف اصلی این مطالعه بررسی تاثیر دیجیتالی شدن و شدت انرژی بر رشد اقتصادی در کشورهای منتخب منا است. برای این منظور از شاخص‌های بخش‌های مختلف اقتصاد و روش‌های داده‌های تابلویی شامل تکنیک‌های ثابت، تصادفی و FGLS استفاده می‌شود. دوره زمانی مطالعه سال­های 2021-2000 می باشد. نتایج مطالعه نشان می­دهد که به طور کلی، بهبود دیجیتالی شدن، جمعیت شهری، ارزش افزوده بخش صنعت و باز بودن تجارت تأثیر مثبتی بر رشد اقتصادی در کشورهای منتخب منا دارد و شدت انرژی و تأثیر همزمان آن با شاخص دیجیتالی شدن، تأثیر منفی بر رشد اقتصادی در کشورهای منتخب منا دارد.

چکیده [English]

Today, the digital economy can be called the main source of growth in any economy, and countries are increasingly looking for solutions to development of the digital economy and the factors affecting it. Also, the process of changes in the structure of the energy system, fluctuations in energy consumption and price and possibility of replacing fuels with each other, saving energy in energy consumption, and also reducing energy intensity have special importance. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of digitalization and energy intensity on economic growth in selected MENA countries. For this purpose, indicators of different sectors of the economy and panel data methods including fixed, random and FGLS techniques are used. The study period is 2000-2021. The results of the study showed that in general, the improvement in digitalization, urban population, the added value of the industry sector and the trade openness has a positive effect in economic growth in selected MENA countries, and energy intensity and its simultaneous effect with the digitization index, have a nagative effect in economic growth in selected MENA countries
