In a move to meet its target of reaching 30% of its power from renewable sources by 2023 , Turkey implemented a long-awaited renewable energy law.

The law first adjusts and increases the Turkish Feed-in tariffs , fixed as follows:

Renewable source

Power plant capacity

Period of time

Feed-in tariff rate in USD/kWh

Installation capacity cap

Wind

All sizes

10 years

0.073

N/A

Hydropower

Geothermal

0.105

Biomass

0.133

Biogas

Solar PV

600 MW by 2013

Such tariffs replace previous rates ranging from EUR 0.05 to EUR 0.055/kWh that used to apply to all renewable technologies.

Tariffs apply for a ten-year period to power generators completed in 2005 to 2015. Renewable producers will also benefit from a 85% discount on transmission costs for 10 years.

The 2010 RE Law also includes bonus payments for hardware components made in Turkey to support and boost the national manufacturing sector. Companies the facilities of which rely on locally produced equipment/components receive a bonus to their feed-in tariff, fixed as follows:

Renewable hardware components

The U.S. Army Just Called China’s Bluff in the Rare Earth War

Just recently, in a span of about six weeks, one impressive company was selected by the U.S. Army to build and operate rare earth processing facilities on an American military base…the first time the Army has ever done this. That same company closed $100 million in institutional financing, giving it a war chest of roughly $130 million. It was also formally added to the Russell 3000 Index. And it locked in MOU’s for feedstock agreements covering billions of tonnes of rare earth-bearing material from sources across Wyoming, Appalachia…

Oil Prices Ignore the Warning Signs in Physical Markets

Oil price movements since the start of March this year have become the topic of dozens of discussions. Many have been puzzled by futures prices and why they haven’t gone through the roof given the severe disruption in Middle Eastern supply. It appears the reason is sheer optimism and a bet on market adaptability. However, there is a problem with that. Adaptability has limits. Many commentators like to compare the current oil price—and supply—situation to 2022, when Russia’s incursion into eastern Ukraine prompted an actual…

The World’s Largest Sand Battery Is Now Online

Modern power grids require a constant, real-time balance between supply and consumption. Unfortunately, the integration of wind and solar energy makes power grids unstable due to the intermittent nature of renewable energy generation. To prevent localized grid blackouts or harmful voltage spikes, utilities are increasingly pairing renewables with battery storage and/or rapid-response natural gas plants to smooth out fluctuating supply. However, Finland has now come up with a rather eccentric method to store excess renewable energy and release it…

Refined Fuels, Not Crude, Are Driving the Oil Market Crunch

Oil prices have just come off a fresh two-month high as the crude oil market has tumbled this week amid signals of de-escalation in the U.S.-Iran conflict. Despite the slump in crude prices and the extreme volatility in the past five months, the refined product market continues to tighten with refining margins at record highs because the supply of petroleum products is much tighter than crude supply. Refining margins held at record highs even as crude oil prices soared last week to $100 per barrel. That’s because global gasoline, diesel,…
