Improving Energy Efficiency in Industry
Category: MCF
Project initiated in Turkey on September 26, 2008, aimed at improving industrial energy efficiency.
This project, titled "Improving Energy Efficiency in Industry" in Turkey, aimed to enhance the energy efficiency of the Turkish industrial sector. Its primary purpose was to enable and encourage industrial companies to manage energy use efficiently through various energy conservation measures and the adoption of energy-efficient technologies. The scope included developing an enabling policy and institutional framework, raising awareness, and building capacity within the industry and among private energy service providers. Key activities and expected outputs included: 1. **Policy and Institutional Framework:** Updating sectoral assessments of energy consumption and saving opportunities; adopting industrial energy norms/benchmarks; evaluating and recommending improvements for existing public financial incentives and support mechanisms; and enhancing the capacity of key public authorities (like EIE) and supporting entities (like TTGV, OIZs, KOSGEB) for effective policy implementation. 2. **Awareness Raising and Capacity Building:** Developing a handbook for industrial energy management adapted for Turkish conditions; increasing awareness among industrial management regarding energy efficiency benefits and opportunities; and improving the existing EIE web-portal on energy efficiency. The affected sectors are primarily the industrial sector in Turkey, including industrial companies, relevant public authorities (such as the General Directorate of Electrical Power Resources Survey and Development Administration - EIE), and supporting entities (such as the Technology Development Foundation of Turkey - TTGV, Organized Industrial Zones - OIZs, and Small and Medium Industry Development Organization - KOSGEB). The document outlines an indicative calendar for the project lifecycle, with a submission date of August 28, 2008 (re-submission September 26, 2008), GEF Agency Approval in March 2010, Implementation Start in April 2010, and Implementation Completion in March 2015. These dates pertain to the project's timeline, not regulatory compliance deadlines for industrial companies. The document does not specify the names of particular Turkish regulations or statutes, but refers generally to an "enabling policy and institutional framework," "industrial energy norms/benchmarks," and "public financial incentive and other support (or enforcement) mechanisms."
