Results indicate that the variables under consideration become stationary after taking first difference, affirming their stability. Employing FMOLS and DOLS models, the research reveals a negative effect of technical advancement and Government quality on green growth, interestingly, economic growth is found to impede green growth in SAARC countries positively. In conclusion, the study advocates for increased emphasis on technological innovation to foster green growth, urging governments and policymakers to invest in and encourage the development of innovative renewable resources
