This article estimates the ties between green fiscal policies and energy efficiency in COVID-19 era. For this purpose, data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach is considered and applied. The study findings show that green fiscal policies, such as public supports and tax rebates, have significant role in reducing energy poverty of different international countries by advancing energy efficiency. Therefore, a panel data ranging from 2010 to 2020 is used. Our findings indicate that the aggregate degree of green fiscal policies help to decline energy poverty. Renewable energy companies had larger series of net fiscal competence and size efficiency, and their levels of energy efficiency were greater than 0.457%, with the 16% effect of current public supports and 11% effect of taxation rebates supported to diminish energy poverty with 29.7% in different international economies. This is a positive effect by green fiscal policies. The study also presented policy implications suggesting effectively implementing green fiscal policies for more efficient carbon reduction and making climate change supportive for peoples in post COVID-19 period.
本文旨在探讨新冠疫情时代绿色财政政策与能源效率之间的关系。为此，我们采用了数据包络分析（DEA）方法。研究结果表明，绿色财政政策（如公共支持和税收优惠）在提高能源效率方面发挥了重要作用，有助于降低不同国家的能源贫困程度。因此，我们使用了 2010 年至 2020 年的面板数据。我们的研究结果表明，绿色财政政策的综合程度有助于降低能源贫困。可再生能源公司具有更大的净财政能力和规模效率系列，其能源效率水平大于 0.457%，当前公共支持的 16%和税收优惠的 11%效应有助于降低不同国际经济体 29.7%的能源贫困。这是绿色财政政策的积极影响。本研究还提出了政策建议，即有效实施绿色财政政策，以实现更高效的碳减排，并在后新冠疫情时代为人们应对气候变化提供支持。
