Our Energy Databases

OUR ENERGY DATABASES

The great majority of IBS’s work comprises reports which are confidential to its clients. In addition, in working on over 100 such projects, IBS has built up a series of unique and frequently updated database on the energy sector in Turkey.  These include the IBS Industry Base* on Turkey's top companies and their energy requirements.

*Using the Access program

IBS Industry Base




This covers the fuel requirements of over 3,000 top
companies and all organised industrial zones
and includes all 6,200
companies using over 1.2 mn kWh of electricity per year and over 1 m cubic
meters of natural gas. 




Important
components comprise
:

  • The energy consumption of all provinces by fuel type and industrial sector
  • Total energy consumption of the top 500 companies.
  • Organized Industrial Zones detailing Turkey’s 183 industrial zones - 45 completed, 38 semi-completed, 100 not-completed – and their activities. Information on their needs and energy management policies.
  • Some financial and contact data as well as many other company or zone-specific data of relevance to energy consumption.





We also track:

o       
Current
and planned power plants, together with implementation prospects

o

prices and volumes

IBS Energy Models

An inherent part of IBS’s work in the energy sector is the development of simulational energy models on energy requirements in Turkey. This unique resource built up in over 60 relevant projects, comprises four core elements:

  1. An integrated power pricing model to 2025. This allows for different scenarios of growth in the Turkish economy and different fuel prices. It shows the effect of the 5-year transition period and vesting contracts foreseen in the March 2004 Electricity Sector Strategy Paper, analyzing cost for all major categories of plants and fuel types. It allows for losses, varying load factor, changes in ownership, substitution fuels, CO2 permits, long-run and short-run marginal costs etc and contains details of over 400 actual, planned and discussed power plants. (9 MB Excel file)
  2. A model for residential and commercial natural gas usage by province, covering 2005-25, allowing for variables such new licenses and network development, economic development, population growth, changes in household size, varying climate, varying distance of towns from trunk pipelines etc. (2.5 MB Excel file)
  3. A model for industrial energy and natural gas demand by industrial sector, covering 2005-25 under three alternative growth scenarios, built on interviews with leading industrial plants and showing the impact of different price levels for natural gas on gas substitution of other fuels. This incorporates the latest State Institute of Statistics surveys of industrial energy usage. (3.6 MB Excel file national basis).
  4. A model integrating the various scenarios above with supply factors. This includes a gas-to-gas competition model. (1.9 MB Excel file)

IBS is continually refreshing these models.
