Turkey Aims to Boost Renewable Share

Turkey has unveiled an ambitious plan to increase the share of renewable energy in its electricity production, reinforcing its commitment to a more sustainable energy future. This strategic move is part of Turkey's broader efforts to diversify its energy sources and reduce carbon emissions, as the country seeks to capitalize on its rich potential in solar, wind, and hydropower.

Currently, renewable energy accounts for a significant portion of Turkey's electricity mix, but the government aims to further boost this share, especially through solar and wind projects. These renewable energy investments are key to Turkey’s goal of reducing its reliance on fossil fuels, particularly coal and natural gas, which still dominate the country’s energy production. By focusing on renewables, Turkey is also working toward its climate action goals, aligning with global efforts to limit greenhouse gas emissions.

The government has been ramping up efforts to attract both domestic and international investments in clean energy projects. This includes incentives for renewable energy development, which has resulted in a growing number of solar and wind farms across the country. Turkey's energy authorities are also working to strengthen the national electricity grid to better integrate renewable energy sources and ensure a stable supply of green electricity to meet rising demand.

Additionally, Turkey is prioritizing sustainable development and the expansion of its renewable energy capacity as part of its long-term energy strategy. By advancing its energy transition, the country aims to create a more resilient energy system, reduce import dependency, and contribute to global climate efforts.

Turkey's focus on clean energy growth positions it as a key player in the regional energy landscape, with the potential to become a renewable energy hub in the coming years. This push will not only bolster Turkey’s energy security but also provide economic opportunities, supporting sustainable growth and innovation in the energy sector.

Bihar’s First Geopolymer Road

A pioneering geopolymer road in Bihar was recently inaugurated by NTPC Kahalgaon. The first of its kind in the state constructed entirely without cement, the 2.9-km road marks a milestone for the company. It utilised 2,000 metric tonne (mt) of fly ash, a byproduct of power plants, and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) from steel plants, combined with chemicals such as sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate. This eco-friendly approach not only reduces greenhouse gas emissions but also promotes the effective utilisation of industrial waste and sustainable practices. More durable than con..
