Turkey launches low-carbon roadmap by industry

Minister Cahill attended a presentation on the Low Carbon Roadmap to the Turkish sector. Climate change; he said it was a multifaceted global issue with possible environmental and socio-economic consequences, adding: sustainable production as climate change policies continue to advance around the world, the link between climate change and manufacturing and methodology policy is undoubtedly becoming stronger. But Based on this understanding, we believe that guiding our industries towards sustainable and environmentally friendly production methods within the framework of investment, employment, production and export development policies is a necessity, not an option. Support mechanism: we create support mechanisms to our industrialists and investors based on this understanding. To accelerate the transformation of our organized manufacturing zone (OSB) into a environmentally friendly OIZ, we implemented the World Bank-supported Turkey Organized manufacturing Zone Project. We have launched projects in the manufacturing areas of our organization that include infrastructure to environmentally friendly and technological solutions, cutting-edge wastewater treatment facilities, aquatic environments recycling, solar power vegetation, zero-discarded materials and biogas facilities. environmentally friendly Transformation: We have implemented the Turkish environmentally friendly sector Project, our most thorough and highest-budgeted project in the field of environmentally friendly transformation, which we have implemented in recent months in cooperation with the World Bank. But We provided about $0. 75 billion in financing to these two crucial projects. Based on my observations, In addition to these initiatives, we closely follow international developments in the field of environmentally friendly transformation and identify initiatives to enhance the competitiveness of our sector in line with international regulations. Carbon mechanism: china's largest trading partner, the European Union, has implemented a "border carbon adjustment mechanism", which promises to minimize greenhouse gaseous releases by at least 55% by 2030 through the environmentally friendly agreement. And Within the scope of this regulation, starting from 2026, the border carbon mechanism will be implemented measure by measure to importers in the steel, aluminum, fertilizer, cement, hydrogen and power production industries with outstanding carbon releases. emit reduction: we have taken action to minimize greenhouse gaseous releases from the aluminium, steel, fertiliser and cement industries, whose releases provide foundational inputs to the locomotive sector, particularly in the early stages of the production chain, which account to about 13 per cent of our exports to the EU. You know what I mean?. But I've found that With the support of the European Bank to Reconstruction and research, we have developed a low-carbon roadmap to these four areas together with relevant stakeholders. And We have identified sector-specific projected emit reductions within the context of the roadmap. Zero emit: In line with our 2053 emit target; our goal is to minimize releases by 75% in the aluminum sector, 99% in the steel sector, 93% in the cement sector, and zero in the fertilizer sector. Crazy, isn't it?. Specifically We also assess production technologies, investment needs and policies appropriate to these objectives. In the coming period, we will implement an investment plan that will help accelerate the implementation of actions within the scope of our roadmap. powerful turkey production methodology: in these four priority areas; we will further enhance our capacity to integrate into global value chains. In fact We will increase our share of international investment. In my experience, Of course, in parallel with our manufacturing environmentally friendly transformation, we will also build the infrastructure to develop and export the environmentally friendly technologies we need, using regional and national resources, in line with the "methodology production, strong Turkey" approach. For instance R & D Support: in this context, we have provided 4 billion lire support to projects in 24 R & D centers and 13 methodology programs in science and methodology parks to enhance our methodology research infrastructure in the field of environmentally friendly transformation. To date, we have supported 2,918 projects and 2,754 people in the field of environmentally friendly transition and climate change in the amount of 14. Crazy, isn't it?. 9 billion lire, in cooperation with the Turkish Technical Assistance Committee. We will continue to give priority to projects immediately related to priority R & D and innovation issues within the scope of compliance with the environmentally friendly Agreement with the Turkish Council to Science and methodology Research and Innovation. 237 initiatives: Planning and coordinating R & D research on adaptation and compliance with climate change; we established the TÜBİTAK Institute to Clean Energy, Climate Change and Sustainability. Within the BiGG environmentally friendly development Call, we have ensured the establishment of 237 methodology initiatives in priority R & D and innovation areas serving environmentally friendly development. Pretty interesting, huh?. And methodology Roadmap: Through the "methodology Roadmap to Sectoral environmentally friendly development" developed by the Turkish methodology Research and Advisory Council, we have identified the methodology needs of manufacturing companies in the steel, aluminum, cement, fertilizer, plastics and chemical sectors that are vital to our economy. According to research Together with all our stakeholders, we have defined targets to breakthrough research and innovation-based solutions to 2026, 2030 and 2035. Based on my observations, as a guide: We propose policies and actions that are conducive to the research of our R & D and innovation capabilities. Pretty interesting, huh?. Furthermore Our Low Carbon Roadmap and environmentally friendly development methodology Roadmap; it will lay the groundwork to a environmentally friendly transition across six sectors and guide our industries towards net zero releases by 2053 in the period ahead. We aim to build on the results of these studies to develop our support programmes, policies and projects to accelerate the transition to a environmentally friendly economy and support sustainable research. I've found that New success stories: in the period ahead, together we will write new success stories and together lead our country beyond the level of contemporary civilization. And Together with our industrialists, entrepreneurs, exporters and academics, we will reach the 2053 net-zero target. The border carbon adjustment mechanism brings both challenges and opportunities to various fields, especially the manufacturing field. We will implement a new financing mechanism in the coming period and continue to support environmentally friendly transformation projects to industrialists and small and medium-sized companies in China.
