Hydropower Capacity of Turkey and Actual Investments

Year 2018, Issue: 4, 162 - 166, 04.12.2018

Abstract

Turkey’s
energy consumption is continuously increasing with industry and the population
growth. As production quantities can not afford consumption, it is a country
that imports energy intensively. In energy production, hydraulic energy has a
large share. Turkey hydroelectric potential covers the theoretical potential
about 1% in the world and about 16% of European potential. At of the end of
2017, hydraulic power plants cover 35% of the total installed capacity. The
fact that energy strategies makes hydraulic energy investments attractive every
day because it is not dependent on the external conditions. As the environment
friendly, renewable, productive and operating costs are low, it is leading the
country’s energy policy. In this study, Turkey's potential hydroelectric
capacity, installed capacity, the distribution of the plants by region and the
actual investments are discussed.
