Renewable Energies in the World
Global warming, increasing pollution and instability in oil prices has long
been a headline in all humanity's agenda. It is obvious that the world
can no longer continue with existing resources and headed towards
renewable energies. The largest target was set by European Union Energy
Commission for Renewable Energies especially for wind, water, solar and
biofuel.
Right Time to enter Turkish market
According to OECD reports Turkey's average economic growth rate is forecasted at a steady 7.2% per year up to 2012. Particularly by the expansion of industrial capacities and - in parallel to the increase of the living standards- the rising energy consumption of households an increase of energy demand is estimated of 7.5% to 8.2 % annually for 2008 till 2015. Already for 2009 is a supply shortfall expected. Medium term plans are constructions of about 500 new hydroelectric plants. According to information of the Turkish Ministry of Energy, the rapidly rising demands require investments of at least US $ 3 billion per year.
The government plans the extension of electricity production through the use of alternative energy sources like wind and solar energy, energy from biogas and biomass, geothermal energy and hydropower (with a water reservoir of a maximum 15 qkm).
Turkey is after China, Japan, the United States and Iceland- with 170 geothermal heat zones and approximately 1.000 thermal springs in the possession of the world's fifth largest potential of geothermal energy (Rank 1 in Europe), which leads to high investments of the government.
