Abstract:

 

Apperceiving the materiality of energy transition, it is observed an enhancing effort and scoping in this field. Many countries have started stimulating studies and allotted extra budget for transition. In the last decade, some governments determined ambitious goals and applied policies to come true goals determined. Agreed two point are “energy efficiency” and “environment” along all the goals. It is irrefutable fact that policy makers will rev up because of the need of fast-react coming with developing technology. It is expected to occur new, more balanced, clean, clear and sustainable policies in the fallowing period. Paris Agreement has addressed climate change, its effects and necessity of stopping it. Some countries have taken action forthwith not to more arise matters from fossil fuel whereas others are late accordingly. In this study, sustainability of Turkey’s energy policies has been interrogated in terms of energy efficiency and environment. The official data has been collected from reports of Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MENR), International Energy Agency, Strategic Plan (2019-2023) of MENR and so forth. also, current and declared policies for future by MENR have been examined. The comparison of current and prospected situations including attain sustainable energy transition and encountering with their possible costs of delayed actions has been illustrated. The big data collected refers to Turkey needs to; attain sustainability and preserve it with implementation of renewable and environmental energy policies, enhance investment in renewable, nuclear energy power and energy efficiency, continue stimulating and encouraging capital investors to carry its Energy sector to a competitive dimension. Until 2030 the vital challenge in front of Turkey is funding of transition nonetheless Turkey made a huge progress in last two decades. Finally, the most effective movements for achieving the sustainable transition are discussed.
