Sustainable development holds the key not to resolve the problems every nation is facing these days but also for long-lasting effects. In the current era of digital age, each nation wants to achieve sustainable development for their future generations. In addition, environmental sustainability is an imperative module to achieve sustainable development. Hence, the present research work scrutinizes the energy efficiency, CO emission, and renewable energy on the sustainable development of SAARC countries through World Bank sample set from 1995 to 2019. The results infer that CO emissions, renewable energy, energy efficiency, GDP, and FDI show a strong correlation with sustainable development in SAARC counties. Furthermore, renewable energy and energy efficiency have been shown to be reliable instruments for reducing CO emissions and achieving sustainable development in SAARC countries. This research will help policymakers take preventative and constructive actions to achieve sustainable development by reducing CO emissions and uplifting the drivers of sustainable development.
可持续发展不仅是解决当前各国面临的问题的关键，也是实现长期影响的关键。在当前的数字时代，每个国家都希望为子孙后代实现可持续发展。此外，环境可持续性是实现可持续发展的必要模块。因此，本研究工作通过世界银行 1995 年至 2019 年的样本集，审查了能源效率、二氧化碳排放和可再生能源对南盟国家可持续发展的影响。结果表明，二氧化碳排放、可再生能源、能源效率、国内生产总值和外国直接投资与南盟国家的可持续发展呈强相关关系。此外，可再生能源和能源效率已被证明是减少二氧化碳排放和实现南盟国家可持续发展的可靠手段。本研究将帮助政策制定者采取预防和建设性行动，通过减少二氧化碳排放和提升可持续发展的驱动力来实现可持续发展。
