Nevertheless, the tourism activities are linked to increased emissions, due to the sector\u2019s energy intensity, especially in the transport and commercial sectors. The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between final energy consumption in the whole economy, the transport, commercial and public services sectors, and the tourist activity in the 15 countries with the highest number of international tourist arrivals in the world, in 2000\u20132019 period. The Energy\u2013Environment Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis extended with tourism has been tested. Obtained results show non-linear relationships between energy consumption and production levels. There is evidence in favor of the energy EKC hypothesis, and in favor of an inverted N-shaped relationship for transport and commercial and public services sectors. The results also show a positive, increasing relationship between energy consumption and tourist arrivals for the whole economy. However, there is some evidence of the tourism energy EKC hypothesis when considering the transport, commercial and public services sectors. Therefore, economies of scale are observed in these sectors. Accordingly, it is highly advisable to increase the economies of scale, coupled with a greater awareness on the use of renewable energy. Negative relationships are found between energy consumption and tourism receipts. Therefore, it is advisable to establish policies that encourage high quality tourism to control the economy\u2019s energy consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Energy consumption<\/li><li>Tourism<\/li><li>Transport<\/li><li>Tourism arrivals and receipts<\/li><li>Environmental Kuznets Curve<\/li><li>Panel data<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Autores: Pablo-Romero, M.P.; S\u00e1nchez-Braza, A.; Garc\u00eda-Soto, M.A. Datos de publicaci\u00f3n: Economies,&nbsp;2023, vol.11 (10), pp. 263. https:\/\/www.mdpi.com\/2227-7099\/11\/10\/263 Abstract Tourist activity has strategic importance in the global economy.
