WHY WIND ENERGY?

Wind power, which is one of the most important renewable energy sources, is clean, high in system efficiency, abundant and free of charge. Contrary to common belief, the noise level is pretty low in wind turbines. Now let’s examine the pros and cons of wind power to answer why it should be used.

Pros of wind power

  • It’s an energy type which doesn’t pollute the clean environment, and doesn’t have fuel costs.
  • There is no foreign-source dependency; energy can be produced using only local opportunities.
  • The operation expenses are the lowest among energy sources.
  • They are not complicated machines; they can provide energy without an operator.
  • They do not produce emission or waste that can cause air pollution. It is the least harming energy type for nature.
  • The turbines do not take up lots of space, there is no explosion risk, and they do not emit radiation.
  • Wind turbines start-up in as short time as 3 months after the construction begins.
  • Wind turbines can be produced in desired sizes, and they produce requested amount of energy.
  • Employment rate per kWh unit is higher than other energy sources. (27% more than coal plants, and 66% more than energies combined with natural gas)
  • There are no sudden expenses. Thus it is not a burden to citizens with unnecessary tax increases.
  • We are contributing to the country’s decreasing dependency to foreign sources by investing in internal, renewable and clean energy sources. We provide sustainability and safety in energy supply with our steady portfolio.
  • We carry out all of our actions abiding by codes of conduct and according to the current legislations and regulations.
  • We care about stakeholder engagement. Our inclusive strategy takes the expectations of our stakeholders into consideration as well as reducing the risks, and maintaining long-term, permanent connections. We inform the locals, civil society, and all related stakeholders about the investments thus help them involve in the activities. Besides giving priority to the local employment, we contribute to the regional development by supporting the needs of the region.
  • We provide out workers a favourable working environment and equal opportunities, and invest in their progress by securing their health and safety.
  • We evaluate and assess the environmental and social effects of our investments to natural and cultural heritage, which we use to take measures to decrease these effects. We invest in high technology in regard to fight against climate change, improve our processes by observing energy efficiency, and develop projects.
