Özet:

Abstract – This study compares the state of renewable energy sources in our country in comparison with the world in general while also examining their usage areas. Renewable energy sources with a potential for generating energy in our country are solar energy, hydraulic systems, geothermal energy, biomass energy and wind energy. Especially wind and solar energy potentials have received significant attention. The installed power based on renewable energy in Turkey and the electrical energy generated have been examined comparatively. Information was provided about the general potential of the installed WEP in Turkey, the cost effectiveness of energy generation, development of energy generation technology in addition to the necessity of clean environment and clean energy. Turkey has a rich potential with regard to renewable energy sources. The problems with regard to energy deficit in our country will be minimized when the renewable energy sources that have received significant attention in recent years are used actively. Thus, the energy problem in our country will have been partially solved while also decreasing foreign-source dependency in the field of energy.
