Energy efficiency and heat pump adoption in Turkey

Overview

In Tokat, Turkey, the accommodation sector has initiated a carbon-neutral transformation through the SoGreen Project. Supported by the Middle Black Sea Development Agency, the project replaces natural gas and chiller-based systems with high-efficiency, air-to-water reversible heat pump technology. This transition aims to eliminate the consumption of approximately 72,300 cubic meters of natural gas annually, reducing carbon footprints and operational costs while creating local employment.

Concurrently, a broader trend toward modern heating solutions is emerging in Turkish rural areas. As interest in detached housing and village homes grows, traditional stoves are increasingly being replaced by energy-efficient technologies such as heat pumps. In regions like South Marmara, these systems are being integrated with floor heating to provide more balanced temperature distribution in larger homes.
