Efficiency Week Special: Energy Efficiency
The efficient use of energy and energy-saving applications reveal the results that make a difference especially in the production stage. As part of energy consumption occurs during production, it is possible to reach serious savings figures in energy efficiency projects in the industry.
When energy consumption and energy efficiency are called, firstly, the following topics are highlighted:
[[T][4]When energy consumption and energy efficiency are called, firstly, the following topics are highlighted:
[
• The energy used in industrial, residential and transportation in our country is covered by import by 70%-75. In summary, Turkey is among highly poor countries in terms of energy resources.

• The energy density of our country is above the world average and 2.5 times the EU average. Therefore, we need to pay special attention to energy efficiency applications.
• Energy saving and efficiency are among the strategic targets of our country 2023. [
[• With energy efficiency studies, Turkey’s energy density (generated energy per mile income) is aimed at at at at at least 20% reduction by 2023 (by 2011).
] The industry sector in Turkey carries about 40% of the total energy consumption of our country and 60% of electricity energy consumption. Therefore, energy efficiency applications in the industry have special importance:[

Home Energy efficiency in the industry means less energy consumption by using more advanced designs and new technologies of existing production plants without reduction in production.
In energy efficiency applications, production, quality and performance lowness is required. On the contrary, some side products that are considered waste can become new resources available with efficiency projects.
[• The most energy consuming sectors in our country are ranked in the form of cement, ammonia, aluminum, glass, steel, fertilizer, paper, ceramic, textile, food and refinery.
• With accurate efficiency investments in Turkey, 95% of industrial facilities can save energy from 5% to 40%.
[• With the record of receiving some measures, it can save energy by about 10 percent even with no investment or a small amount of investment. [
[• In the short run, it is possible to consume less energy from day to day with steps such as energy leakage, insulation solutions, transportation and lighting optimization.
In order to reduce export dependence in energy, it is necessary to give priority to renewable energy solutions.
