The Role of Solar Energy in Industrial Facilities
Turkey is one of the most advantageous countries in Europe and the world in terms of solar radiation values. With an average sunshine duration exceeding 2,600 hours per year, photovoltaic systems work extremely efficiently, especially for industrial facilities in Central and Southern Anatolia.
System Components
- PV Panels: Mono or polycrystalline, suitable for rooftop or ground-mounted installations.
- Inverter: Central or string inverters that convert DC generation to AC.
- Monitoring System: SCADA-integrated software tracking instantaneous production, consumption and grid data.
- Battery System (optional): Lithium-ion battery systems for storing energy for nights or cloudy days.
Return on Investment Period
For industrial-scale photovoltaic systems (≥100 kWp), the average payback period is 4–6 years. With a panel lifespan of 25–30 years, the long-term savings are at a very attractive level.
Incentives and Supports
The Turkish Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources offers comprehensive incentive mechanisms. Investment deductions, YEKA tenders and TEDAŞ net metering applications further increase the financial attractiveness of the system.
