ایجاد یک چارچوب امنیتی انرژی برای یک اقتصاد سریع رشد می کند: دیدگاه های صنعت از ترکیه

Energy security is currently one of the priorities in governmental agendas, particularly for fast-growing economies such as Turkey. These economies which typically depend on energy-intense industrial production require a consistent, reliable supply of energy to support their economic development, especially the ones with limited indigenous energy resources. As the Industrial sector plays a major role in energy demand, the successful implementation of energy security strategy also depends on the cooperation of intensive energy consuming industrial companies. Therefore, this paper investigates the interrelationship between Turkish industry’s perspective and government’s energy security strategy papers, providing a case with the potential to enlighten the process. It also aims to gain insight into the industry sector’s view of the energy security in this context, through a qualitative inquiry. An analysis of resulting concepts, and the interaction and interrelation among these enable the development of a Turkish energy security framework based on the views of industrial sector. In addition, a set of policy recommendations are developed following this framework. This study also identifies possible areas of discrepancies between industry and government perceptions, and thus, potentially promoting levels of interaction and understanding between the two key parties.
