  • Includes Data and Indicators Annex for Water and Energy
    The United Nations World Water Assessment Programme (WWAP) is hosted and led by UNESCO and brings together the work of 31 UN-Water Members as well as 34 Partners in the United Nations World Water VOLUME 2 Development Report (WWDR) series. The WWDR 2014 marks the transition of the series to an annual publication cycle with a theme for each year FACING THEFACING CHALLENGES – ‘Water and Energy’ for 2014. This edition of the Report seeks to inform decision-makers within and beyond the water–energy nexus about the interconnections and interdependencies between water and energy; the inevitable trade-offs experienced when providing water and energy for basic human needs and to support sustainable development; and the need for appropriate responses that account for both water and energy priorities, particularly in the context of post-2015 targets on increasing access to water and energy. It provides a detailed overview of major and emerging trends from around the world, with examples of how some of these have been addressed and the implications for policy-makers, and actions that can be taken by various stakeholders and the international community. Like the earlier editions, the WWDR 2014 contains country-level case studies describing the progress made in meeting water- and energy-related objectives.

  • Renewable Energy Policy in Turkey
    Renewable energy policy in Turkey S.Kucukali1,*, K.Baris2 1 Cankaya University, Department of Civil Engineering, Balgat, 06530 Ankara, Turkey 2 Zonguldak Karaelmas University, Zonguldak, Turkey * Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This study aims to explore the availability and potential of renewable energy sources in Turkey and discuss the government policies and economic aspects. Turkey is a country which has the highest hydropower and wind energy potential among European countries. Current energy policy of Turkey primarily aims to maximize geothermal, wind and hydropower potential of the country in next 15 years. In Several incentives were developed for electricity generation from renewable energy sources by the publication of Law No. 5346 in 2005. The most important ones are: ease of land acquisition and feed-in-tariffs which promises purchasing of electricity generated by legal entities with a price of 5-5.5 €c/kWh. Since Turkey is a European Union (EU) candidate its laws and regulations must be compatible with EU. As the legislation in EU member states is investigated it is apparent that Law No. 5346 should be restructured. This should include: (i) redetermination of feed-in-tariff amount according to type and capacity of renewable energy source, (ii) taking installed capacity into account instead of reservoir area for hydroelectric power plants as renewable energy source, (iii) making detailed Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report obligatory for renewable energy plants. The emphasis has been given on hydropower and wind energy. The renewable energy policy of Turkey has been compared with the advanced economies in Europe like Germany and Norway Keywords: Renewable energy, EU policy, Turkey.

  • Seminar Program 2007
    EUROSOLAR Turkey – INFORSE WORKSHOP European Union Renewable Energy Policies and Turkey 15-16 December 2007, Istanbul European Union had made a lot of progress in the last years and still continues to make progress in regulations on energy efficiency and renewable energy resources within the areas energy security, energy resource diversity and combating climate change. Along with advancements already made, EU constantly improves its objectives and increases the portion of renewable energy resources in the energy system. EU considers the subject also as a new and growing economical sector and employment opportunity, and aims at changing its current energy paradigm and energy system through a well-prepared plan. The aim of this workshop is to discuss the regulations Turkey, a candidate for EU, has been doing on account of the adaptations on this matter; and make an evaluation of all renewable energy resources considering the regulations and the national legislation which targets the efficient use of energy. Main topics to be discussed in the meeting: - The Regulations in European Union concerning Renewable Energy Resources and Energy Efficiency - The Renewable Energy Resources Law in Turkey and its Applications - The Evaluation of the Energy Efficiency Law and Draft Regulations - Introduction of the regulations that would lead to maximising the utilisation of Renewable Energy Resources in Turkey Presentations: EU Renewable Energy Regulations and Turkey By Dr. Baha Kuban & Dr. Tanay Sidki Uyar • A General Outlook on “Energy” in EU • History
