Opportunity: Turkey Can Scale Up
Renewable Energy Dramatically
Solar Power:
Huge Global Potential, Largely Uncharted
Total Solar energy potential:
120,000 TW
Global energy demand: 15
TW
Total Current Solar Energy
Capacity: 0.009 TW
Solar Power: Both PV and CSP
Applications Have Potential
Conventional PV Solar for
Residential Water Heating
Concentrating Solar Power (CSP)
Parabolic Troughs – Nevada USASolar Power Tower – Seville, Spain
Solar PV – Serpa, Portugal
Global Solar Energy Use:
Small, but Growing Rapidly…
Most favorable areas for
CSP

Commercial viability requires still high tariffs (US cents
30-40/ kWh) – which will fall as technology advances
Enabling Environment for Private
Solar Power Investment in Turkey
• Basic Framework in Place:
– Renewable Energy Law – feed-in tariff system,
assured purchase arrangements
– Regulatory framework
• Some Possible Next Steps:
– Higher feed-in tariffs
– Concessional finance
– Clear and transparent framework for licensing,
evaluation methodology etc.
