The most crucial issue that urgently needs to be addressed for
the problems of global warming and the greenhouse effect is carbon
emissions. Carbon emissions are extensively generated throughout all
stages of the building life cycle, from material production to building
design and operation. Therefore, it is essential to rapidly develop and
adopt low-carbon design methods. The aim of this study is to identify
the challenges faced by Turkey in the transition to low-carbon energy,
prioritize these challenges, and highlight the key factors of strategic
importance for the effective implementation of energy policies. In the
initial phase of the study, challenges in transitioning to low-carbon
energy were classified through a literature review, and criteria were
established. Subsequently, these criteria were compared through a focus
group study. Binary comparison results were then used to obtain an
equation based on weighting through the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process
(FAHP) method, determining the challenges in Turkey's energy sector and
their priorities for transitioning to low-carbon energy. The findings
are crucial for understanding and producing strategic solutions to the
obstacles in achieving energy-efficient transitions in Turkey.
Furthermore, the results of the study encompass insights for
transitioning to high-energy performance buildings. The analyses
conducted to identify the key factors in Turkey's transition to
low-carbon energy are strategically important for ensuring the effective
implementation of energy policies. The outcomes of this study will
serve as a valuable guide for policymakers and industry experts to
comprehend and address the difficulties encountered in Turkey's energy
transformation.
