Improving Energy Efficiency in Industry in Turkey Turkey is establishing a regulatory and institutional framework to promote energy efficiency, including a National Energy Efficiency Strategy and Energy Efficiency Law. Based on this framework, efforts have been made to improve energy efficiency (EE) in energy-intensive sectors such as steel, cement and paper. However, these efforts were largely made by the companies of the designated energy- intensive sectors only and the dissemination of the efforts and outputs of EE needs concerted efforts covering all industry, especially including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that form the bulk of industrial enterprises in Turkey. Various finance, capacity, technology and policy barriers still stand in the way of the widespread adoption of energy-efficient processes and technologies. comprehensive and integrated approach that will focus on: (1) Contributing to the implementation of the EE Law by strengthening the institutional-regulatory framework and promoting a national Energy Management Standard; (2) Enhancing capacity and creating awareness in Turkish industrial companies as well as financial service and energy service providers; (3) Implementation of energy audits in large industry and SMEs; (4) Demonstration of state-of-the-art management practices, EE measures and technologies and appropriate business a

Umbrella project for the phase-out of R141b from the PU sandwich panels and R22/142b in XPS (PU) RIGID FOAM PRODUCTION IN THE MANUFACTURING OF PU INSULATE OF EXTRUDED POLYSTYRENE BOARDSTOCK  The Government of Turkey has decided to implement an accelerated phase-out of HCFCs in the manufacturing sub-sector in advance of the Montreal Protocol schedule. With regard to the refrigeration servicing sub-sector, the proposed reduction and phase-out are foreseen to be achieved by the date of Turkey#s accession to the European Union. At present, the legislation has not introduced HCFC restrictions applicable to refrigeration servicing activities, as in the case of the manufacturing sub-sector, except for the licensing and quota allocation to reach the freeze in consumption. The strategy for addressing HCFC consumption in the servicing sector will be presented in the HPMP to be submitted to the 64th Meeting. Although Turkey could meet the 2015 control level by addressing only HCFC-141b, the Government is proposing to phase out 99.0 ODP tonnes of HCFC-141b and 159.1 ODP tonnes of HCFC-22 and HCFC-142b used in the foam sector. On this issue, UNIDO indicated that the circumstances for achieving the phase-out targets established under the national legislation are correlated with the future accession of Turkey to the European Union and the ongoing process of harmonizing national legislation with the European Union#s
Enabling Activities to Review and Update the National Implementation Plan for the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants - in Turkey The overall objective of the proposed Enabling Activities (EA) is to update and review the National Implementation Plan (NIP), and have it endorsed and submitted by the Government to the Stockholm Convention Conference of Parties (COP). Participating stakeholders will be able to manage the additional POPs with newly developed technical skills, expertise and awareness.  The NIP update process will enable Turkey to establish inventories of products and articles containing new POPs and to identify industrial processes where new POPs are employed or unintentionally produced. The EA project will focus on the inventory of the ten (10) new POPs including the available infrastructural and legal framework, their socio-economic, environment and health implications at the national level. The inventory process will also look at the effectiveness of the current NIP implementation process in order to identify gaps or barriers that might persist. During the implementation of the proposed EA project, the information concerning the initial twelve (12) POPs will also be looked at and updated. This comprehensive information on POPs will facilitate the revision of the national priorities and the development of specific action plans for eliminating or reducing the production, use, import, export and releases of the new POPs. The re
GEF UNIDO Cleantech Programme for SMEs in Turkey The project, in addition to creating an enabling policy environment and institutional capacity, will also assist Turkey in the establishment of a supportive innovation ecosystem through the organization of two annual competitions with associated accelerator programmes. These will firstly be organized in a few industry-intensive regions and then gradually be expanded to other regions, dispersing the results and consolidating the newly developed national platform for innovative SMEs. These frameworks and newly built capacity will help Turkey to continue to organize the competition in the future and expand its scope and geographical coverage.  It is expected that each competition will have around 100 to 200 entrants. From these entrants, around 40 semifinalists will be selected, depending on the individual circumstances of each competition. These semi-finalists will then receive support through the accelerator programme as described hereunder. From these 40, 10 finalists will be selected to receive further support as part of the accelerator programme. Winners and runner-ups will then be selected. The selection of winners, runners-up, and finalists will be made by various judge panels based on their evaluation of the business plans or pitches submitted by the finalists and semi-finalists after having received suppo
