A New Sabanci University IICEC study proposes 10 recommendations towards a stronger energy future for Turkey
IICEC Director of Research Bora Sekip Guray underlined that an efficient growth progress can be enabled by greater private-sector participation towards more competitive electricity and natural gas markets. Guray said that in the TEO Alternative Scenario significant energy efficiency improvements are achieved in energy use by means of policy choices such as transport modal shifts, energy performance contracts in buildings and developing technologies around electric vehicles, digitalization and many others.
Based on the findings, TEO proposes solid policy recommendations such as an attractive investment framework to mobilize energy investments, increased renewable and nuclear power with more flexibility power grids, and increased energy and fuel efficiency across all sectors. It also suggests strong policy initiatives and innovative financing and business models to exploit energy efficiency potential in buildings and industries. Faster uptake of electric vehicles, faster retirement of older vehicles, and enhanced modal shifts from road to rail and marine are key recommendations for the transport energy economy. TEO also assesses clean energy technology options such as an increased uptake of digitalization as well as R&D and manufacturing of advanced energy technologies.
