After noticing that there are breaks in the regression model, the Hatemi-J test for cointegration is employed to the cases that take into account two possible regime shifts. It is concluded that there is a long run relationship between industrial production and industrial coal consumption with the breaks at 1983:4 and 1998:4. We found a negative relationship between coal consumption and industrial production for the period of 1973:1-1983:4 and positive relationship for 1983:5-1998:4 period. For the last period that covers 1983:5-2011:10, the cointegration relationship turned to negative. In addition, the results show that causal relationship between coal consumption and industrial production changes over time.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closeAccessIndustrial ProductionEnergy ConsumptionCoal ConsumptionCointegration with Two BreaksReview Article16861236127WOS:0003111848000532-s2.0-8486547342610.1016/j.rser.2012.07.002Q1Q1
