Present Status and Future Projections of Electrical Energy in Turkey
In Turkey, electricity is generated from thermal, hydro, wind and geothermal power plants. There is no commercial nuclear power plant yet. Turkey’s energy demand has grown rapidly almost every year and, it is expected to continue growing. According to the high scenario, the total installed capacity and gross electricity generation of Turkey will reach to 91,827 MW and 450,152 GWh by the year 2017, respectively. On the other hand, net electricity consumption of the country will increase to 355,600 GWh. For meeting this rising energy demand, Turkey gives a great importance to the private sector investments. In this paper, present situation of Turkey’s electrical energy and future projections are investigated in order to give some help to energy planners in the country. Key Words: Electricity consumption, electricity generation, future projections, installed capacity, Turkey.
Keywords:
Electricity consumption, electricity generation, future projections, installed capacity Turkey,
