Evaluation of Floating Renewable Energy Potential for Sustainable Energy in Türkiye

Energy is an increasing necessity due to the change in needs and the development of the industry with the rapid growth of the world's population. Today, the energy supply usually meet from non-renewable (fossil-based) sources. This situation causes adverse effects globally and a decrease in the fossil resources that future generations need. Sustainable, efficient, and clean energy will only be possible using renewable resources. Installation of renewable energy systems requires large areas, but suitable terrestrial for onshore are not always available. Therefore, in our country, it is necessary to increase floating renewable energy power plants. In the study, the offshore installation potential of solar, wind, and wave renewable energy required for sustainable energy production in Türkiye was examined. A qualitative evaluation was conducted for solar, wind, and wave energy generation. It has been concluded that coastal areas and stagnant water surfaces of Türkiye are suitable for the installation of floating energy systems. This study aims to emphasize the necessity of floating renewable energy systems for Türkiye. It also provides essential contributions to the studies to be carried out on floating energy systems in Türkiye.
