Özet:

Energy is a fundamental source of life that continues to grow from the existence of mankind to the present day. As a result of the rapid growth of industrialization in the world and the very rapid progress of technological developments, the number of energy-based wars has increased. Energy is a strong requirement for countries to ensure sustainable growth and development. Therefore, the energy supply for a country must be supplied by safe sources and routes, without interruption and at a reasonable price. Turkey’s energy demand growth rate is in the first place among the EU and OECD countries, and in the world after China is in the second place. Turkey imports a large portion of the oil it consumes and almost all of the natural gas it consumes. Turkey imports more than 75% of its energy. In this case, the security of energy supply for Turkey is a national issue. In the last 10 years, Turkey has paid an average of $55 billion per year for energy imports. The costs that Turkey has paid for energy imports are variable parallel to the drop in oil prices in the world and the fluctuations in the currency rate in Turkey. Energy security and national security are properly proportionate. In order to ensure the security of energy supply, Turkey must supply its energy primarily by domestic and national technologies, from its own resources. The main subject of this study is to emphasize the importance of local and renewable resources, the diversity of resources, nuclear energy (with national technologies and/or technology transfer), the energy pipeline that is planned to pass through and pass through Turkey. The result of this study is that, along with local and renewable resources, within the framework of the geopolitical position of Turkey, the energy pipeline lines built and continued to be built on Turkey (BTC, TANAP, Turkish Stream, etc.).Analysis of the impact of Turkey on national energy security.
