Issue Type

  • [X ] New Data Source

Countries

Turkey

Affected plant(s)

Possibly all built since 2014 but I am not certain.

Database field(s)

Definitely: Province, licence number(this could go in the "other" field)
Possibly but not certain: Name, commissioning year, capacity, company name, fuel type, number of units

Description

Source shows additional power but unfortunately not a complete current list.

Source Information

Energy Ministry: energy investments - a spreadsheet for each year since 2014

Data Provider

(Select one or more with x between brackets)

  • Official Government Data

Data Format

(Select one or more with x between brackets)

  • [X ] Machine-readable format (Excel, CSV, XML, ...)

Data Location

Energy investments

Additional Info

You might be able to use the licence number to cross ref with the non-government source you already have and take the names and company names from that as obviously they might have changed since the capacity was added. I don't know any automated way to tell if a plant has been retired if its licence is still valid but I suspect few plants have retired since 2014.

Thank you for sharing this. It looks like there could be some useful information in these reports, just have to get a better understanding of the context and field meanings. I will investigate further next week.

It looks like these are reports of investments that took place each year. Column J (İLAVE KURULU GÜÇ MWe) handles the change in capacity from investment/upgrade. Column H (ÜNİTE GÜCÜ MWe) seems to be the column that reports the capacity, though the algebra needs to be executed.

Database v1.1.0 has about 60% of Turkey's installed capacity, so this may be a really helpful source for discovering unknown plants. ~30 GW of capacity for Turkey is not in the final database, we know of ~10 GW that is un-located (resources/WRI/Turkey.csv) and therefore not in the final database. There is ~22 GW of 'additional capacity' (Col J) in these reports from 2014-2017. We are certainly dealing with the correct magnitudes to make some leaps on Turkish coverage. Thanks for contributing this source.

There is also a 5 year forecast published annually which seems to include the amount of electricity generated by each new plant e.g. appendix 2 on pages 89 and 90 of TÜRKİYE ELEKTRİK ENERJİSİ 5 YILLIK
ÜRETİM KAPASİTE PROJEKSİYONU
covers new plants in 2016.
