Solar Energy Potential in Turkey
Solar energy is a type of energy classified as a clean and renewable energy source. The most important factor in benefiting from solar energy is the geographical location of the country and its potential to receive sunlight throughout the year. Various factors such as the angle of incidence of solar rays and the duration of sunlight determine the efficiency and potential obtained from solar energy.
Compared to Europe and other countries in the world, Turkey has a very advantageous position in terms of utilizing solar energy. The sun, which is the source of energy and life for the entire world, manifests itself with high efficiency throughout the year in many geographical regions of Turkey. The energy unit per second of solar rays reaching the world is approximately 170 million MW. According to research results, this value is about 1700 times the energy produced in Turkey in one year, and Turkey spends approximately 110 days of the year very efficiently in terms of solar energy production.
Turkey is located between 36-42 degrees north latitude. This location is a geographic position where solar energy can be used efficiently. The annual average solar radiation duration in Turkey is 2,640 hours, and the annual average solar energy intensity is 1,311 kWh/m²/year. These values show that Turkey has a significant potential for solar energy production.
