Implementing digitalization to improve energy efficiency and renewable energy deployment in Turkish distribution networks
Funder: British Council
Duration: February 2021 - February 2023
Funder: British Council
Duration: February 2021 - February 2023
The aim of this project is to increase welfare of low-income population in Southeast Turkey by achieving savings in the distribution network that serves them. This will come from digitalizing the energy systems and decreasing power losses. It will allow more renewable energy installations, leading to long term economic benefits.
