Today more than 70% of all energy is used for these purposes in Turkey. Similarly a share of up to 60% of all energy is used for process heating in the manufacturing industry as hot water, steam or direct heat. There is a large untapped potential to reduce this energy demand and diversity its supply by using more renewable energy sources. Today, buildings and industry represent together more than three-quarters of Turkey\u2019s total final energy consumption.\r\n\r\nTurkey is currently experiencing a rapid urbanisation rate of 2% per year on average. This results in new buildings to be added to the stock. The current floor area of the residential building stock of 2.4 billion m<sup>2<\/sup>\u00a0is expected to reach 4 billion m<sup>2<\/sup>\u00a0by 2050. This creates significant opportunities to implement energy efficiency measures and integrate renewable energy technologies.\r\n\r\nTurkey employs a significant capacity of heavy manufacturing industries that produce bulk materials like steel and cement. 32 plants across Turkey produce various types of iron and steel products making Turkey the 8<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0largest producer and 10<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0largest exporter worldwide. As the world\u2019s fourth largest producer, Turkey produces nearly 80 million tonnes of cement each year from around 70 plants. Numerous food, beverage, textile and machinery and equipment manufacturing plants also operate in Turkey. Top strategy for the sector is to utilise the opportunities offered by retrofits and best practice energy efficiency technologies to reduce the rapidly growing demand as Turkey becomes a more industrialised nation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_wp_custommenu nav_menu=&#8221;53&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_row pix_particles_check=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column][vc_single_image source=&#8221;featured_image&#8221; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row pix_particles_check=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]Majority of the energy use in buildings is for heating space, domestic water and cooking.
