| Description: | Ⅰ. Introduction:
Returning to Istanbul for its third year, Solar Turkey produced with the government support of the Turkish Prime Ministry, EUAS, TEIAS, EIE & TETAS, has become the official meeting place for domestic and international companies looking to evaluate and break into the sector. ★. What's New for 2011? ● Government perspectives on their rationale on the feed-in tariff: How do they envisage solar companies can make a return on investment in the Turkish market and in what time frame? ● Exclusive update on the details of the new licensing process for large scale solar projects as they look set to be finalised in the next couple of months ● New focus session on solar manufacturing: How can you best set up a plant? What challenges will you face in Turkey? What are the markets for your products? Which domestic and international players are looking to do it? ● Case studies of industrial and commercial scale plants being constructed and under development ● Regional outlook: What are the opportunities for large scale solar development in Bulgaria, Romania, Greece, the Middle East and other neighbouring countries? Can Turkey serve as a hub to these? Ⅱ. Agenda Outline: 1. Day One -- Sep. 20, 2011 1) How to ensure a ROI with the current FiT for solar power in Turkey ● What was the government rational behind the chosen values for the FiT ● In what instances can these be attractive to develop projects? ● Will decreases in module prices make the FiT more attractive in the near future? ● What is the true cost of developing large scale solar projects in Turkey: land purchase, permitting processes, raw materials costs, labor costs 2) Understanding the licensing process for large scale solar projects ● Status of the finalisation of guidelines ● Learning from wind power licensing applications, what to expect for solar and what timelines to expect ● Proposed coordinates of suitable substations to connect a future solar power plant ● Will large scale projects take off and when will this happen? ● Which developers will be interested and how big do we envisage the plants will be? 2. Day Two -- Sep. 21, 2011 1) Solar manufacturing in Turkey ● The impact of the provisions in the FiT to encourage domestic manufacturing: which companies are now applying to manufacture solar modules? ● Cost of manufacturing in Turkey vs China ● Poor proposals put forward for manufacturing plants and how to spot them ● Which industries are likely to move into manufacturing 2) Getting a manufacturing facility on-line ● Timelines and processes to get a manufacturing line operational ● Case studies of manufacturing plants being constructed ● Quality assurance of locally manufactured modules ● Sourcing components 3) Neighbouring countries as markets for solar panels and solar projects ● Developing Solar markets in the Balkans: How mature are they and what legislation is in place ● Gateway to the Middle Eastern markets ● Appetite for Turkish modules in the EU and further afield 4) Industrial & commercial scale solar power generation ● Synergies with CSP and using high temperature steam & pressure to drive manufacturing processes. How much can be made by selling to the grid? ● Existing solar projects with on site consumption of electricity: will these connect into the grid? ● The licensing process for industrial projects |
