Because of the rapidly growing economy and high population growth; electricity consumption in Turkey increased by 2.2% in 2018 compared to the previous year, 304.2 billion kWh, while electricity generation increased by 2.2% compared to the previous year and amounted to 304.8 billion kWh. As of the end of September 2019, the installed capacity of our country has reached 90,720 MW. As of the end of September 2019, the distribution of our installed capacity according to resources; 31.4 percent hydraulic energy, 28.6 percent natural gas, 22.4 percent coal, 8.1 percent wind, 6.2 percent solar, 1.6 percent geothermal and 1.7 percent are other sources. Although our energy needs increase day by day, our country meets 76% of primary energy demand through imports. If our energy needs are met with our own resources, it will be possible to reduce the dependence of our country's economy on foreign sources and to reduce costs. Turkey's biomass waste potential of about 8.6 million tons oil equivalent (MTOE) and the amount of biogas that can be produced is estimated to be 1.5 to 2 MTOE. Biomass, which is one of our domestic energy resources, has a significant potential for our country and it is obvious that the development of biomass-oriented energy policies will provide significant gains in the production of sustainable, domestic, cheap and clean energy in our country. In this study, current waste biomass potential determined and the amount of energy obtained by the incineration of waste in Turkey are calculated on the waste scope. Animal, agricultural and urban organic, timber, wood industrial production of wood based panels and treatment waste sludge amounts were determined and combustion energy values of wastes, which are a good alternative in terms of energy production, were calculated in the Turkey. As a result, combustion energy values of biomass wastes, which are a good alternative in terms of energy production, were calculated in Turkey is 184,647 in 2018. In addition, it is concluded that the development of the technologies and the infrastructure necessary for the clean and efficient incineration of chicken wastes will be important for obtaining sustainable and clean / cheap energy in Turkey.
