Yeşil Hidrojen Üretimi ve İhracatı Açısından Balıkesir’in Potansiyelinin Değerlendirilmesi

Öz

Bu çalışma, Balıkesir İli’nin yeşil hidrojen üretimi ve ihracatı için bir merkez olma potansiyelini değerlendirerek, onu Türkiye’nin yenilenebilir enerjide lider olma yönündeki daha geniş stratejisi içerisine yerleştirmektedir. Coğrafi, ekonomik ve teknolojik analizlerden yararlanan bu çalışma, Balıkesir’i yeşil hidrojen tesislerinin, özellikle de rüzgâr ve güneş enerjisi gibi bol yenilenebilir enerji kaynaklarının geliştirilmesi için uygun bir yer haline getiren temel faktörleri belirlemektedir. Araştırma, bölgedeki yeşil hidrojen projelerinin fizibilitesini etkileyen altyapıyı, politika ortamını ve yatırım eğilimlerini değerlendirmek için veri analizini paydaş görüşmeleri ile birleştiren karma yöntem yaklaşımını kullanacaktır. Bulgular, Balıkesir’in hem yerel hem de küresel olarak hidrojen dağıtımını kolaylaştıran önemli endüstriyel pazarlara ve ihracat limanlarına yakınlığı da dâhil olmak üzere stratejik faydalarını vurgulamaktadır. Ancak yapılan literatür taramasında, bu faydaların gerçekleşmesi için önemli miktarda mali harcama gerekliliği ve özel teknoloji ve yeteneklerin geliştirilmesi gibi önemli engelleri tespit etmiştir. Ayrıca büyüyen hidrojen ekonomisini desteklemek için gereken düzenleyici değişiklikleri analiz etmiştir. Bu çalışma, Balıkesir’in yeşil hidrojene geçişi için düzenleyici öneriler ve işbirliği modelleri de dâhil olmak üzere bir yol önererek sürdürülebilir enerji üretimine ilişkin bilimsel söyleme katkıda bulunmaktadır. Aynı zamanda yatırımcılara ve düzenleyicilere hidrojen teknolojisinin bölgesel bağlamlarda ölçeklenebilirliği konusunda faydalı bilgiler de sağlayacaktır.

Evaluating Balıkesir’s Potential for Green Hydrogen Production and Export

Öz

This research evaluates Balıkesir Province’s potential for producing and exporting green hydrogen, aligning with Turkey’s renewable energy plan. This research examines the fundamental variables that make Balıkesir a favorable site for green hydrogen facilities, notably the development of plentiful renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power. The study takes a mixed-methods approach, combining data analysis with stakeholder interviews to assess the infrastructure, policy environment, and investment patterns influencing the viability of green hydrogen projects in the region. The findings emphasize Balıkesir’s strategic benefits, including its closeness to key industrial markets and export ports, facilitating local and worldwide hydrogen distribution. However, the literature study revealed considerable impediments to attaining these benefits, such as the requirement for large financial investment and the development of specialized technologies and expertise. The report also examines the regulatory adjustments required to enable an expanding hydrogen economy. This study offers regulatory suggestions and collaborative models for Balıkesir’s transition to green hydrogen, adding to the scientific discussion on sustainable energy generation. It also offers vital information for investors and regulators about the scalability of hydrogen technology in regional contexts.
