The Turkish energy policy requires a strategic framework for sustainable economic growth, energy security and to meet the continuously rising energy demand. The 2030 energy plan of Turkey has a target to achieve 30% of its electricity generation from renewable technology with a significant reduction in global Green House Gas emissions by utilizing local renewable energy resources and clean technologies. Also, the Turkish energy network requires a significant contribution from other technologies such as combined heat and power and integrated energy systems to develop a strong, efficient and effective renewable energy network.

This case study involves a techno-economic, policy and environmental assessment of a combined heat and power system for the Izmir Institute of Technology. It highlights the inefficiency of the existing system and proposes a CHP system to meet the current and future energy requirement. Two systems were taken into consideration, a gas turbine and a reciprocating engine based combined cycle systems to analyze the best possible scenario to achieve sustainability.

The result shows that the reciprocating engine based system provided a reduction of 77% of CO2 emissions with increased overall efficiency of 47% and 0.166 million USD annual savings in comparison with the grid-based system and gas turbine with a reduction of 8% of CO₂ emissions and increased overall efficiency of 43.5%. The outcome depict the importance of the CHP system on universities, institutes, and residential applications and emphasize on the modification of the policies towards the 5th generation energy network, including a combination of different technologies to achieve the energy and environmental targets for strengthening the Turkish energy network.
