SCENARIO 3

''SECURITY FIRST''

Energy Supply and Use:

 Because of the climate change and decreasing fossil fuel, in 2054 people provide those needs by renewable energy sources. For example; wind, solar, geothermal and sustainable forms of bio-energy.

  Wind Energy:

    Some values are represented like a graphics in 2014. Aegean Region of the Turkey have a %40,90 Capacity of Wind Power Plants. But, Izmir is second level of wind turbine. In 2054, Aegean Region will still be first compared to other regions in terms of Installed Capacity for Operational Wind Power Plants. Moreover, Izmir will be first compared to other cities and Balıkesir will be second.

   Solar Energy:

     In 2014, values of Izmir are like represented in graphics.According to chart average sunlight in a year is 7,82. In terms of sunlight Izmir has a big potential but usage of sunlight is weak. In 2054, because of ozone layer depletion, average of sunlight per a year increased. At the same time, storage and usage of sunlight technologies also developed. Therefore, amount of the solar panels and other sunlight gathering equipments increased.

  Geothermal Energy in Izmir:

         For the geothermal Energy sources, Izmir is one of the richest place around Turkey. Balçova coming foremost, Seferihisar, Çeşme, Dikili, Bergama, Aliağa and Bayındır districts are all very important geothermal sites.

     Through the current energy and with the new technology, People using geothermal energy for;

1.   Heating and cooling systems, 
2.   Electric power generation,
3.  Carbon dioxide, fertilizer, lithium, heavy water, chemicals, and mineral products such as hydrogen,
4.   Thermal spas in tourism purposes,
5.    At low temperatures (30 ° C) aquaculture,
6.   Producing drinking water containing minerals,

      Regarding the current installed power, there is no power plant generating electricity by the use of geothermal energy in İzmir province. In 2054, those centrals will be built.

 Available Material Resources:

In 2014, Turkey has Boron potential, but there was no process, it was only sold as a raw material to foreign countries. In 2054, this process developed and boron become essential element for using as glass industry, ceramic industry, cleaning and whiting industry, agriculture, metalurgy, fireproof material creating etc.

 Manufactures Systems:

Biogas is a mixture of gases which can be produced from regionally available raw materials such as recycled waste and is a renewable energy source and in many cases.

Applications area are:

1.Burningfor heating

2. As a motor fuel for transportation

3.Turbine fuel for generating electricity

4.Usage at fuel cell

5.Addition to existing natural gases for reducing cost

6.Producing chemical materials

In 2014, there is one facility to produce biogas at Kocaeli. In 2054, amount of those facilities increased and biogas usage become common. 

 Communication and Transportation:

    With the development of technology, transporting is based on cars, zeplins, electiric shuttle and airbus etc.. These are working with electiricity which will be produced with bicycle, windmills etc.

      Producing green bicycle which whell turns any pedal- powered cycle into an electiric one by fitting a special electiric motor wheel. The bike is recharged through pedalling or the mains.

The air vehicles, the idea of having a part car and part plane at the same vehicle which is future design technology. This air vehichles will bring a lot of convenience.

  Food Production:

Spreading unhealthy foods with Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) decreased day by day and at least finished. People encouraged to organic and healthy food production. Also, technology development makes people life easier who work at agriculture.
