Solar Energy Investments Increase Rapidly

Investments in alternative sources in energy, which are among the sectors of strategic importance for the Turkish economy, are increasing rapidly with the contribution of state supports. Turkey, which has a high solar energy potential with the advantages offered by its geographical location, has risen to 14th place in the world and 7th in Europe with investments in this field.

Making an assessment of the developments in the sector in recent years, Bursa Tek Energy Chairman of the Board İbrahim Şahintaş said, “Solar Power Plants have become the favorite of companies and homeowners who want to convert the excess energy they produce into investment. Solar energy investors start to make profits in as little as 5 years. In addition to its ease of installation and use, solar power plant investments, which are at the forefront with their environmentalist aspect, will continue to increase rapidly. Our country's solar energy installed power, which is 5.9 gigawatts by the end of 2019, is expected to increase to 15.1 gigawatts in 2024. he said.

GOVERNMENT PROVIDES AN ENERGY RECEIVAL GUARANTEE FOR 10 YEARS

İbrahim Şahintaş stated that efficient electricity consumption has also become an investment tool thanks to the solar power plant systems that generate electricity from solar energy, and said, “Our state gives a 10-year receival guarantee to those who set up the SPP system for the surplus energy they produce. Those who install a solar plant system for their homes or workplaces can get rid of the electricity bill and benefit from the receival guarantee provided over the electricity distribution costs.” he said.

THE ONLY TSE CERTIFIED COMPANY IN SOLAR POWER PLANT SYSTEMS

Drawing attention to the great interest of solar power plant systems both in Bursa and throughout the country, İbrahim Şahintaş said that their company is the only TSE-certified company in Turkey in this field. Stating that the panels installed by Bursa Tek Energy were tested at a weight of 356 kilograms by calculating snow, altitude, and wind load, Şahintaş said, “We successfully passed all the tests under these difficult conditions. These tests are carried out by TSE every year. In this sense, we became the first company in Turkey with the document we received. We also installed a 100 kW solar plant on the roof of our own building. We are receiving high demand for solar power plant investment. Our individual and corporate visitors with an investment plan can examine the system on-site. Our visitors can also closely examine how the assemblies in different systems are made with the modeling we made at the entrance of our company.” used the phrases.

GES WILL FILL TURKEY'S ENERGY GAP

Emphasizing that the energy sector has a significant share in Turkey's current account deficit, İbrahim Şahintaş said, "With renewable energy, our need for energy resources that are harmful to the environment and make our country dependent on foreign sources will decrease. Our state invests heavily in Hydroelectric Power Plants (HEPP). On the other hand, it is trying to get the private sector to invest in solar power plants. Our need for natural gas and coal will gradually decrease when daytime production can be fully achieved from solar energy and nighttime generation from HEPPs. I believe that the heating and cooling systems of the houses will be provided with solar plants in the near future. With all these efforts, our increasing energy needs will be met and a radical solution will be produced in the near future for our deficit in this regard.” he said.
