Agricultural Biomass Energy Equivalent Potential of Aksaray Province

Abstract

Renewable energy sources are alternative fuel types that are environmentally friendly, healthy and can be used continuously as a solution to the harmful effects of fossil fuels on the environment and the problem of depletion of these fuels. Biomass, which is the residue of agricultural activity or a direct agricultural product, can be converted into a modern energy carrier by biochemical or thermochemical processes. Biomass energy of agricultural origin is an important renewable energy source such as wind, solar, geothermal energy types. Within the scope of this study, the agricultural biomass energy equivalent potential for the province of Aksaray was determined for the years 2011-2020, and the data determined for the aforementioned province were compared with the values reached in the Central Anatolia region and Turkey. Agricultural Biomass resources were examined under five main headings: Fruits - beverage - spice plants, Vegetables, Cereals - other herbal products, Clover and Sugar Beet. The energy equivalent potentials of these sources were determined in MW. In the conclusion part of the study, the average agricultural biomass energy equivalent of Aksaray province was determined as 39,027 MW in total for the five main topics. Also, the energy equivalents of Aksaray province determined in the last ten years were evaluated among themselves under each heading. In addition to all these, the same agricultural biomass energy calculation processes in Aksaray province were applied to Central Anatolia and Turkey as well, and small, medium, and large-scale evaluations were made on the table. In the light of the obtained values, it was concluded that Turkey's agricultural activities were not adversely affected by the negative effects of the pandemic process.
