The objective of this thesis is to examine the incentive mechanisms that are applied for the renewable energy across selected countries and to put forward a set of suggestions for the future revision of incentive policy, ...

In the last decade, Turkey has made significant progress in energy efficiency. Despite the introduction of many laws, regulations and directives, the use of energy in our buildings is well above the equivalent consumption ...

The CO2 emissions associated with electricity generation has been increasing in parallel to the increase in electricty demand in Turkey. Various targets are identified to reduce the emissions and strategies are developed ...

In recent years, wind energy systems become an important source for energy production around the world with increasing installations. When Turkey’s wind energy potential is taken into consideration, wind energy systems ...

A 14 nm - thick aluminum film is coated on a glass substrate by using an e-Beam Evaporation system, Then onto the top of the aluminum layer, hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin film is deposited by using Plasma ...

Single crystal n-type silicon wafer with (100)-orientation was texturized by using nanosecond pulsed, Ytterbium doped fiber laser with the master oscillator power amplifier architecture (MOPA), operating at the peak ...

In the present study, the effect of dust deposition and shade on 5 Watt mini photovoltaic (PV) panels was analyzed through outdoor fieldwork and indoor laboratory experiments. For the outdoor field tests, two groups of ...

Day after day renewable energy investments are gaining importance in our country as in the world. It is aimed to increase investments within the scope of certain legislation and incentive models due to the decrease in ...

In this study, the unused wind energy potential in Central Anatolia Region was determined and modelling studies have been done. During the study, long term data were obtained from Windographer program and analyzed in the ...

Within the scope of the thesis, it has been evaluated that solar water pumping (SWP) systems can be used instead of conventional irrigation systems (generator or grid electricity). In this context, SWP system was designed ...
