Özet
Energy is undoubtedly the most key to sustainability of the economic growth of a country. Turkey is today dependent on energy approximately at a rate of 75%. The country is able to meet approximately half of its total electricity demand owing to its own limited resources. Over the past 10 years period, Turkey paid nearly half a trillion dollars for its energy bill. On the other hand, the official reserve assets are equal to 93 billion dollars in the central bank of Turkey in November 2018. New power plants are being installed and planned to decrease the energy dependency in the country, particularly for electricity generation. Of these plants, nuclear energy is currently one of the newest and the most debated issues for the country. Hence, this study mainly focused on the possible outputs of the transiting to nuclear energy such as carbon dioxide emissions, radiation doses, energy demand, economic growths, etc., in the country. Additionally, new shares on electricity generation by the new sources were foreseen with this study after the nuclear plants to be operated in Turkey.
