Özet

The integration of renewable energy sources into the electricity grid has gained significant attention due to environmental concerns and the need for energy security. Photovoltaic (PV) systems have emerged as a prominent renewable energy technology, contributing to cleaner energy generation. However, the intermittent nature of solar power generation presents challenges to grid stability and reliability. To address these challenges, the combination of PV systems with electricity storage systems has emerged as a potential solution. This study conducts an economic analysis of such integrated systems within the context of Turkey. The objective of this research is to evaluate the economic viability and potential benefits of integrating electricity storage systems with PV installations in Turkey's energy landscape. The study utilizes a case study approach, incorporating real-world data and parameters specific to the Turkish energy market. A comprehensive techno-economic analysis is performed to assess the costs, benefits, and overall feasibility of these integrated systems. Various key factors, including capital costs, operational and maintenance expenses, energy generation profiles, and grid interaction, are considered in the analysis. Through a detailed economic analysis tailored to the Turkish context, the study offers valuable insights into the feasibility and potential benefits of such integrated systems. The research contributes to the ongoing dialogue on optimizing renewable energy utilization and fostering a sustainable energy future for Turkey. The implications of this research extend beyond the immediate financial considerations. The findings can guide policymakers, energy planners, and investors in understanding the potential role of PV and storage integration in achieving Turkey's renewable energy and sustainability goals.
