The 238 renewable energy projects in Turkey have the potential to generate some 9.2 gigawatts of capacity and 110,000 new jobs, a new report from Ernst & Young prepared with the support of the European Climate Foundation highlighted Wednesday.
The report entitled "A Clean COVID-19 Recovery: Global Opportunity for G20 Leadership" covers 47 countries in terms of their renewable project pipelines but with an emphasis on the U.K., Turkey and South Africa.The analysis on Turkey reveals that the 238 shovel-ready renewable projects account for an investment volume of $19.4 billion (TL 168.42 billion), the majority of which is expected in wind and solar energy.
"A green recovery focused on renewable energy could deliver large-scale job creation in the near term whilst supporting sustainable employment in the long term in Turkey," it said.
It added that this green recovery could create many positions in renewable energy that currently exist in the coal industry if Turkey continues to strengthen the local supply chain and its renewable energy manufacturing capabilities - link
