THE SOLAR CITY PROJECT

Global climate change, burning of fossil fuels, human resources such as land use changes, deforestation and industrial processes rapid increase in greenhouse gas accumulations released into the atmosphere through activities As a result of strengthening the natural greenhouse effect, the average surface area of ​​the earth It refers to the increase in temperatures and changes in climate. Person CO2 produced by activities is the biggest cause of global warming. By 2020, its atmospheric concentration is 48% above pre-industrial levels. has been released. 2011-2020, recorded in date It has been the hottest decade ever. Global average temperature, pre-industrial According to the report, a 2°C increase will have serious effects on the natural environment and human health and well-being. It is predicted that it will cause negative effects.

To combat climate change and lead a warming world Adaptation is the priority issue of the whole world. Extreme weather in some areas events and precipitation become more common, while extremely hot weather occurs elsewhere waves and drought are observed. Climate change is a very serious threat and its consequences affect many different aspects of our lives.

As Melikgazi Municipality, we work with Climate Change Another original project was implemented within the scope of the struggle. "The Solar City Project" has received grant support from the European Union. Lithuania Center with the support of the European Union Project Management Agency (CPVA), together with German GIZ, in the Western Balkans and In order to support the climate change efforts of municipalities in Turkey “Small-Scale Project Implementation In The Fields Of Energy, Climate” Grant titled "Protection and Transport For Municipalities and Cities In Türkiye" The Solar City Project, submitted by Melikgazi Municipality, to the call The project is entitled to receive grant support from Turkey with a total budget of 167,186.98 Euros. It became one of the 2 municipalities.

The project will meet the municipality's energy needs from solar energy. It is based on providing Solar energy installed with the project power plants and electric vehicle charging stations and climate change. The struggle continued without slowing down.

realized with the project named “The Solar City” The work was completed in 4 steps.

1. Step: Our Municipality Energy consumption of one agricultural irrigation facility, bill expenses of which are covered by A solar energy system was established to meet the need.

2. Step: A 100 kWe solar energy panel was installed on the roof. The energy obtained A large part of our municipality's energy needs are met.

3. Step: An electric car charging station was installed outside. given to the charging station Energy is provided by solar panels.

4. Step: In the 4th step, we use 1 electric motor to be used by our Environmental Protection and Control Directorate. A garbage collection vehicle was purchased. 100% Recycling waste is collected with an electric vehicle.

The Solar City Project's application, follow-up, implementation and Processes such as reporting are carried out by Melikgazi Municipality Research and Development Directorate. Provided by.
