Energy Blue Print team: Turkey’s first Energy [R]evolution report proves that it is possible to protect both economy and climate.

"Turkey’s first Energy [R]evolution report proves that it is possible to protect both economy and climate.

Greenpeace and EREC (European Renewable Energy Council) published the first long-term climate friendly scenario for Turkey. According to the scenario through renewable and energy efficiency, we can both protect the economy and the climate.

2nd of November 2009, Istanbul- Is it possible for an economy to continue to grow while protecting the climate? Greenpeace and EREC’s Turkey Energy [R]evolution report, which is launched today on the brink of Copenhagen Summit answers “yes” to this crucial question. The report draws for the first time in Turkey a scientific roadmap for the future of the country’s energy sector until 2050. According to the report, if Turkey chooses to switch to renewable energy sources and to take strong measures for energy efficiency, the energy costs will be cheaper in the mid-term."
