5 TH INTERNATIONAL WORLD ENERGY CONFERENCE, Kayseri, Türkiye, 12 - 13 Aralık 2025, ss.1-5, (Tam Metin Bildiri)
As in all areas
around the world, the importance of sustainability in the field of energy is
increasing, and for this reason, the transition to renewable energy is
supported by all countries. Many factors such as the
climate crisis, the inadequacy and depletion of resources, and the increase in
the world population are further accelerating the transition to clean and
renewable energy, that is, the green transformation process. All
developed and developing countries that are trying to manage these processes in
the best way possible include important targets and projects for the transition
to renewable energy in their policies and development plans. Türkiye is a
country with high geographical diversity and rich energy resources and all
kinds of projects and breakthroughs in the field of renewable energy are being
rapidly realized. The motivation of the study is to
observe Türkiye's energy efficiency and development in the field of renewable
energy in comparison with other countries. In this study, countries (a total of
201 countries) were grouped according to their similarities in terms of
renewable energy efficiency and Türkiye's energy efficiency was evaluated
comparatively. In the study, GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model)
algorithm was used as a method in the grouping phase and parameters such as
countries' renewable energy capacities, renewable energy share
of electricity capacity (%) were considered. In addition, by
using the specified parameters, a future projection was drawn by making forecasting
in terms of renewable energy efficiency for Holt’s Linear Trend method. The
results obtained from the study provide realistic and important predictions for
the future in terms of renewable energy efficiency for Türkiye.
