Ordu province is the leader in hazelnut production in Türkiye and therefore has an important potential in terms of hazelnut shells and husks. The aim of this study is to determine the biomass potential of the province of Ordu, to investigate the energy potential of hazelnut waste and to provide querryable database using geographic information systems. By collecting data on the geographical distribution of hazelnut production areas and their calculated potential for biomass and energy production in the province of Ordu, a database has been created that allows spatial queries. This database was visualized and analyzed through GeoMedia Professional 6.1. It was determined that the districts with the highest biomass production potential are the central province, Ünye and Fatsa, respectively. In addition, the energy potential was calculated at 2,321 GWh, which is significantly higher than the electricity consumption of the province of Ordu, which is 1,375 GWh. The results showed that hazelnut waste, which has low economic value, has a high potential for biomass and energy production. Using hazelnut waste as biomass in the region both promotes sustainable energy production and prevents dependence on fossil fuels by enabling the city to use clean energy sources.
