dc.description.abstractTurkey's energy consumption and imports are experiencing rapid growth, as is the Turkish economy. Hence, rational and efficient utilization of energy resources is very essential. Therefore, knowledge of the Turkish energy utilization efficiencies is of paramount importance in establishing the energy policy of the country. The present study, consisting of two parts, analyzes sectoral energy utilization in Turkey over an 11-yr period from 1990 to 2000. In order to calculate sectoral energy utilization efficiency values, Turkey is subgrouped into four main sectors, namely, utility, industrial, residential-commercial and transportation. Part 1 of this study investigated the first two subsectors, while the rest is studied here. Turkey's overall first law efficiencies for the entire residential-commercial sector are found to vary from 54.19 to 57.76%, while those for the whole transportation sector are obtained to range from 20.15 to 23.88%, with average values of 56.21 and 21.70% for 11 years, respectively. Total energy utilization efficiencies are calculated to vary from 43.24 to 45.81%, with an average value of 44.66% for the same years. It is anticipated that the results obtained can assist national government for future planning studies. However, a good energy management system should be installed throughout the country for the optimum use of these resources.en_US
