This study aims to fill the gap of previous research in the form of developing studies between fuel oil consumption, green economic growth and environmental degradation in 6 selected Asia Pacific countries (Australia, China, India, Indonesia, South Korea and Thailand) by considering the determinants during the period 2007-2020 by using a simultaneous panel model approach. The important findings of this study are grouped into 3 analytical models. First, green economic growth, environmental degradation and cleaner energy have a negative effect on fuel oil consumption, while GDP per capita has a positive effect. Second, fuel oil consumption, environmental degradation and militarization have a negative effect on green economic growth, while technological innovation and cleaner energy have a positive effect. Third, green economic growth and cleaner energy have a negative effect on environmental degradation, while fuel oil consumption, health expenditure and poverty have a positive effect. The policy implication that can be applied is to utilize renewable energy such as biofuel oil to implement a clean development mechanism because the increasing demand for fuel oil consumption will result in CO2 emissions which are a factor causing increased environmental degradation and decreased green growth in a country. © 2021 WITPress.
