Özet

Integration of solar photovoltaic energy systems to urban planning is one of the key priorities of local authorities who cares the global warming threat. "Covenant of Mayors" (CoM), which is the most extensive association of local governments in the world, has started serious works on fighting against climate change and required the local governments' preparation of sustainable energy action plans (SEAP). Bornova Municipality has calculated its reference greenhouse gas emission inventory as 31,432 t CO(2)e (CO2 equivalent) in the SEAP delivered to the CoM on February 7th, 2013. in accordance with the CoM goal, it has committed to reduce its greenhouse gas emission value by 25% by 2020 and realized the installation of a 300 kWp photovoltaic power system (PVPS) in 2013 as the most important project. the main objective of this study is to use the real-time data of 300 kWp plant and evaluate its contribution to the reduction of greenhouse gas emission. Moreover, usable potential roof surface areas of the service buildings of Bornova Municipality have been calculated and the contribution of the increase of the PVPS capacity to the goal of greenhouse gas emission reduction by 2020 has been studied.
