Abstract

Achieving solutions to environmental problems that we face todayrequires long-term potential actions for sustainable development. In thisregard, renewable energy resources appear to be the one of most efficientand effective solutions. Although, Turkey has substantial reserves of re-newable energy resources, actual utilization of these resources is quitelow.The aim of this study is to investigate the renewable energy policiesand the political organizations that shape these policies. In these con-cepts, the renewable energy potential of Turkey, the effective utilizationof this potential, the energy politics, the political organizations, incen-tives, pricing and buying mechanisms, research and development stud-ies, and barriers for development of renewable energy are investigated.In conclusion, proposals and recommendations are given to overcomethe problems.
