Establishing alternative energy sources is one of Turkey's main goals, as stated by the Eleventh Development Plan (2019-2023). Therefore, understanding the possibility of applying such options is a need in the field. The thesis focuses on identifying the non-technical barriers and solar heat opportunities for industrial processes (SHIP) in Turkish industrial parks (IP). The thesis is expressly framed to support the definition of a European Common Research and Innovation Agenda (ECRIA) on SHIP as part of the European Horizon 2020 project Integrating National Research Agendas on Solar Heat for Industrial Processes (INSHIP). Firstly, the renewable energy (RE) technology potentials and the RE political and regulatory framework of Turkey is summarised. After setting the background, the research continues with two methods of field research in the Kayseri IP. By looking at the current prosumer models, driving, and the barriers to adopting SHIP technologies are examined. These factors feed into a discussion on what is required for prosumer models to increase and be sustainable in the long term. Therefore, they aim to generate a more robust policy discussion on future prosumer models for SHIP technology. The objective is to use the prosumer expertise in developing, producing, and applying SHIP technologies to drive growth in Turkey's renewable energy capacities and markets, and be a major supplier for these domestic and export SHIP markets. In the existing situation, the most popular project is PV rooftop systems with Feed-in-tariff (FiT) for prosumer in the IP. The thesis results show that the lead investor created a virtuous cycle and synergy, whereby word-of-mouth marketing by existing investors can complement and amplify the governmental investment promotion activity. According to the collected data set, incentives and financial support are top drivers for industries' self-production and consumption choice. Industries are interested in solar thermal energy for their heating and cooling demand. They have a desire to be energy self-sufficient and have a secure energy supply. However, the identified barriers, such as lack of clear policy and regulatory framework, lack of awareness about SHIP technologies, inhibit the deployment of solar thermal usage in the IP. To sum up, the outcomes indicate that the potential of SHIP exists and requires enterprises willing to take a step forward and move into a potentially innovative industry. By taking into account barriers and opportunities, there is an opportunity for the government to promote the growth of industrial prosumers and deployment of SHIP technology. On the whole, solar thermal offers a win-win approach for companies and also governments to boost their industry and at the same time contributing to both decarbonisation of the energy sector and sustainable development by bringing clean energy sources into their power supply while meeting heating and cooling needs.

THE ROLE OF COMMUNITY ENERGY PLANNING IN DECENTRALIZATION POLICIES OF TURKEY
Erkan, Esengül; Senol Balaban, Meltem; Department of Urban Policy Planning and Local Governments (2022-1-27)
The thesis examines the applications of renewable energy towards community energy as an urban policy in the local governments of Turkey. A comprehensive study was conducted on the energy production and consumption from renewable energy in the world and in Turkey, and the increase in global renewable energy activities in recent years was discussed together with issues such as climate crisis and localization. In the discussions on political, administrative, and financial decentralization and privatization pol...
Solar energy R&D, technology and economics in Turkey
Taşdemiroğlu, E (Elsevier BV, 1990-1)
The solar energy potential of Turkey is assessed. Solar energy R&D programs and technology and the present market for flat-plate solar collectors are briefly reviewed. The potential share of solar energy in the total energy budget is estimated.
Assessment of renewable energy based micro-grids for small communities
Sadati, S.M. Sajed; Taylan, Onur; Sustainable Environment and Energy Systems (2016-7)
Deploying renewable energy systems to supply electricity faces many challenges related to cost and variability of the renewable resources. One possible solution to these challenges is to hybridize renewable energy systems with conventional power systems and include energy storage systems. In this study, the feasibility analysis of two cases for electricity generation systems as (i) photovoltaic (PV)-battery-pumped hydro system (PHS) and (ii) PV-wind-battery are presented as a Renewable Energy Micro-Gr...
Preliminary Study on Site Selection For Floating Hybrid Wind And Solar Energy Systems In Turkey
Yerlikaya, Nevzat Can; Çakan, Çağatay; Başara, Ilgın; Caceoğlu, Eray; Huvaj Sarıhan, Nejan (2021-09-08)
It is well-known that even though fossil fuels are the main energy resource in Turkey, use of sustainable energy resources such as wind and solar energy has been increasing in the past years and expected to continue on this trend in the next years to come. The suitable land for land-based wind turbines and photovoltaic (PV) systems could also be convenient for various other purposes, such as agriculture. This study aims to investigate the suitable sites for a combined floating wind and solar systems in the ...
Hydroelectric power potential and its use in Turkey
Taşdemiroğlu, Erol (Elsevier BV, 1988-7)
Hydroelectric development in Turkey is briefly reviewed. The results of estimates of gross and economically exploitable hydroelectric power potentials are compared. Dam sites and their order for construction are identified. Present and future developments in the power sector are analyzed and projections are given for electricity consumption and production to the year 2010. Hydraulic, thermal and nuclear contributions to total electricity generation are discussed. Finally, problems associated with hydroelect...
