Abstract

This study unveils whether access to electricity (ACSEL) causes the education of pupils (EDUPS) across BRICS countries for the period 1993–2018. Granger and Dumitrescu–Hurlin panel causality tests are applied, and their results show that ACSEL causes EDUPS. Further, the Granger results indicate that ACSEL causes EDUPS for only Brazil and China. The findings suggest providing greater access to electricity for the further improvement of education in India, Russia, and South Africa.
