Executive summary and conclusions

Developments taking place in the landfill development sector in Turkey is worth

attention because this might mean business opportunities for Dutch companies.

Turkey has a population of 74.7 million, which is expected to increase to 94.6 million

people in 2050. Around 25 million tonnes per year are collected. In the past, waste

management was not handled in a proper way and the problem has increased because

of rapid growth of the population and industrialisation. A considerable amount of waste

has ended up at wild dumpsites. It is estimated that there are 50 big and around 2,000

smaller wild dumpsite areas.

The start of the EU accession talks in 2005 and the opening of the Environment

Chapter in 2009 are important pillars that help Turkey to shape its waste management

regulations and policies towards harmonisation with the EU’s standards.

A considerable amount of investment is required for harmonisation and waste

management projects; 58.5 billion Euro in total, a minimum 9.5 billion Euro in the solid

waste management where 7.5 billion Euro is for the landfill sector. Turkey is ambitious

to meet these goals and targets before the 100 year celebrations of the Republic of

Turkey in 2023. Around 1.9 billion Euro per year is said to be invested in environment

sector for the last four years.

It is the responsibility of the municipalities to handle the waste issues. However, their

financing and technical capabilities are limited. Metropolitan municipalities have a

higher budget and better access to funds than smaller municipalities. According to the

new Municipal Law, which will enter into force in March 2014, 13 municipalities of

which the population has exceeded 750,000, will be given metropolitan municipality

status. New investments are expected to come from these municipalities.

The interest of the private sector in waste projects is increasing, because of the

incentives available to the sector. Collection of waste and operation of landfills by

private sector is possible on basis of a concession given by the municipality and

approved by the Minister of Interior. Some companies are focusing on the rehabilitation

of old dumpsites due to their potential for energy recovery from landfill gas.

The amount of electricity generated and sold to the grid is a major source of income

and the projects’ cash flow. There is also growing interest in establishing new sanitary

landfills in an integrated waste management format, where recycling, composting,

energy recovery are all possible. Companies active in this field are interested in

developing of - and investing in - new technologies to increase the efficiency of the

plants.

Establishment of sanitary landfills was given preference due to its comparatively low

level of investment requirement. 120 sanitary landfills are planned to be established

until 2017. 69 sanitary landfills are already in operation. However, many of them

consist of storage cells where garbage is collected, but where there is no treatment,

such as recycling, composting and incineration. Municipalities and private companies

operating sanitary landfills are expected to invest in such technologies. A National

Recycling Strategy will be introduced in 2013.

Introduction

This report aims to provide information about the developments in Turkey in the field

of solid waste management, with an emphasis on landfills and energy recovery from

landfill gas (LFG).

These developments might present business opportunities for Dutch companies.

9.5 billion Euro worth of solid waste investments is foreseen in Turkey to harmonise its

level to the EU. 7.5 billion Euro of this will be to landfill investments. Turkey is

ambitious to realise these investments before the 100 year celebrations of the Republic

of Turkey in 2023.

Investments have started with the establishment of sanitary landfills. 69 of these

landfills are in operation and about 50 more are planned to be established before 2017.

However, most of these landfills are based on garbage collection in storage cells. More

investments are expected to introduce composting, recycling and incineration at these

sites.

In the first section of this report, the institutional and regulatory framework in relation

to the solid waste management in Turkey is provided. Relevant institutions and their

duties are explained. The accession process to the EU plays an important role for

setting up Turkey’s environmental road map. The country has adopted the targets and

goals set for EU harmonisation. Municipalities require special attention, because of their

responsibility in handling waste. Therefore, a detailed analysis of municipalities and

their financial resources, including the EU funded landfill projects are mentioned in this

section.

The second section presents a picture on how and which landfill development policies

are established to enable the municipalities to make the correct choice in their solid

waste management investments.

The third section depicts the general waste composition situation, followed by a fourth

section which provides information about the number and the location of the landfills

established so far.

Turkey’s energy consumption is increasing every year. To decrease its dependency on

imported petroleum and natural gas, the country encourages electricity generation

from renewable sources, which includes landfill gas and biogas. Section five focuses on

energy recovery from landfill gas.

Biogas production from waste water treatment activities has been excluded from this

analysis.

Relevant regulations that make it attractive for the private sector to enter this sector

have been summarised in section five. This part also lists companies active in the

business.

Relevant contacts and information on potentially interesting trade fairs can be found at

the end of the report.

1 Institutional and regulatory framework for solid waste management in Turkey

1.1 Relevant institutions and their duties in relation to solid waste management

Ministry of Development: It is the former State Planning Organisation (SPO). It

consolidates the macro policy documents for different sectors with the contribution of

relevant ministries, municipalities and other stakeholders. Long term development

plans and medium-term programmes from this ministry, set the overall targets.

Development plans contain all infrastructure investments. The Ministry of Development

approves projects in need of public financing and foreign credits.

Seventh Five Year Development Plan (1996 - 2000) recognized that environmental

issues have not been adequately incorporated into economic and social decisions and

called for development of a national environmental strategy. National Environment

Strategy and Action Plan (NEAP) was prepared in 1998 under the supervision of the

SPO, Ministry of Environment and Worldbank, which financially contributed to the

preparation of NEAP.

The Ministry of Development’s ninth development plan for 2007 - 2013 and the

medium term programme for 2013 - 2016 are the present-day relevant macro policy

documents.

The ninth development plan states that:

• Technical and financial assessment of separation at source, collection, transport,

recycling and disposal stages of domestic solid waste will be done in an integrated

way in domes. Landfills, as a solid waste disposal technology, that have low

investment and operation cost and are most suitable for the conditions of the

country, will be preferred.

• Production of non-domestic wastes will be reduced and collection, transport,

recycling and disposal systems that are suitable for the type of waste and conditions

of the country will be established.

2013 - 2016 Medium Term Programme mentions that:

For solid waste management, decomposition at the source, collection, transport,

recycling and disposal stages will be assessed technically and financially.

The Ministry of Development used to have an explicit preference for sanitary landfills,

because of the available space for landfills in Turkey. Cost of other treatment methods

was perceived to be higher and there was no capacity to operate alternative treatment

methods. However, the medium term programme 2013 - 2016 now states that the

whole chain will be assessed as a whole, technically and financially and does not re-

iterate on the preference of landfills.

Ministry of Environment and Urbanisation (MoE&U): Since the 1990’s, it is the

responsibility of the Ministry of Environment to develop national policies concerning

waste management. Policy-making, strategy development, planning, specifying the

standards, issuing licences, auditing, monitoring, taking measures, co-ordination and

training at national level in the field of waste management are under the mandate of

Page 7: development of sanitary landfills and waste-to-energy from landfill

TURKEY

Pagina 7 van 54

this ministry. Through its provincial directorates, the ministry inspects and supervises

the institutions and establishments involved in waste disposal activities.

All duties and tasks of the “Environmental Protection Agency for Special Areas – EPASA

(Ozel Cevre Koruma Kurulu)” have been transferred to the Natural Resources

Protection General Directorate of the MoE&U in August 2011. EPASA was established in

1989, after Turkey signed the Geneva Protocol regarding the Special Environmental

Protection Areas. It was responsible for undertaking all kinds of actions for the

protection of the environment in the designated special environment areas with high

ecological value.

The special areas are:

Aksaray - Ihlara, Aksaray - Salt Lake, Ankara - Salt Lake, Konya - Salt Lake, Antalya -

Belek, Antalya - Patara, Denizli - Pamukkale, Izmir - Foca, Mersin - Goksu Delta, Mugla

- Datca - Bozburun, Mugla - Fethiye - Gocek, Mugla - Gokova, Mugla – Koycegiz -

Dalyan, Trabzon - Uzungol and Saros.

Issues about landfills are subject to the following legislations of MoE&U:

• Regulation on general principles of waste management - 2008

• Solid waste control regulation - 1991

• Regulation on sanitary landfilling - 2010

Ministry of Health: Until the establishment of the Ministry of Environment and

Urbanisation, solid waste management activities used to be coordinated through the

Ministry of Health. This ministry is still responsible for monitoring and auditing the

effects on public health and is authorised to issue licences for waste disposal areas.

Municipalities: Metropolitan municipalities and provincial municipalities are assigned

with the responsibility for the implementation of waste management duties.

According to articles 14 and 15 of the “Municipality Law No. 5393”, municipalities are

responsible to provide all services regarding collection, transport, separation, recycling,

disposal and storage of solid wastes, or to appoint others to provide these services.

According to article 7 of the “Metropolitan Municipality Law Nr. 5216”, metropolitan

municipalities are responsible for drawing up, or commissioning the metropolitan area’s

solid waste management plan; except for the collection at source of solid waste and

the transport of such waste to the processing plant, provide services for the recycling,

storage and disposal of solid waste and excavated soil, establish or

commission the establishment of facilities for the purpose and operate, or contract out

the operation of such facilities;

Municipalities are encouraged to create solid waste unions for establishing joint solid

waste treatment facilities.

Ministry of Interior: Ministry of Interior is responsible for the administrative structure of

the local administrations and any rules and regulations concerning municipalities.

Due to the lack of finance, capacity and resources, municipalities started to open the

waste market to the private sector. PPP’s are also suitable for collection of municipal

waste and operating landfills.

Page 8: development of sanitary landfills and waste-to-energy from landfill

NL EVD Internationaal | DEVELOPMENT OF SANITARY LANDFILLS AND WASTE-TO-ENERGY FROM LANDFILL GAS IN

TURKEY

Pagina 8 van 54

The Ministry of Interior has to approve the PPP contracts and concession contracts of

the municipalities. The Council of State advises on these issues and the Minister of

Interior takes the final decision.

The maximum concession period is 49 years.

In November 2012, an important amendment has been introduced in the “metropolitan

municipality law”, which will enter into effect with the next local elections in March

2014. Accordingly, the total number of municipalities will decrease from 2,941 to

1,384. These administrative changes will likely to have an impact on solid waste

management handling of the municipalities. A detailed analysis on municipalities can

be found under section II-c.

Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology (MoSIT): MoSIT has been assigned in

August 2011 by the Economic Coordination Council of Turkey to prepare the “National

Recycling Strategy of Turkey”. Accordingly, such a strategy for the period 2013 - 2016

is under preparation, in co-ordination with the MoE&U and the Ministry of

Development. This recycling strategy mainly covers packaging waste, used

batteries and accumulators, electronic waste, end of life tyres, end of life vehicles,

metal scrap, waste oil, vegetable oil and industrial waste. It will highlight the existing

situation in Turkey and set an action plan for the studies to be conducted to realise the

targets. Basic integrated waste management methods for waste prevention and waste

treatment will not be covered by this strategy.

IlBank AS: Ilbank is a development and investment bank. Ilbank provides financing for

municipal investment schemes; e.g. drinking water, waste water treatment and solid

waste.

Ministry of EU Affairs: Ministry of EU Affairs is responsible for the coordination between

different governmental units of the harmonisation activities within the National

Programme for the Adoption of the EU Acquis during the accession process of Turkey to

the European Union.

A general overview of the national legislation regarding waste management is

attached. (Annex - I).

1.2 EU - relevance of solid waste management policies

It is beyond doubt that the efforts of Turkey towards the accession to the European

Union (EU) play an important role in Turkey setting up its environmental road map.

Turkey had been granted candidate country status at the Helsinki European Council of

December 1999. The Accession Partnership was established in 2001 to assist the

Turkish authorities in their efforts to meet the accession criteria. By the date of

accession, candidate countries must be in a position to effectively apply all EU

legislation and policy.

For the environment sector, this means challenges in legal, administrative and financial

aspects: over 300 pieces of EU environmental legislation have to be transposed into

national legislation; often weak and under-resourced administrations have to be

significantly strengthened to be able to apply the environmental acquis; substantial

investment in infrastructure and technology is needed to overcome years of insufficient

funding and inadequate attention to environmental priorities.

TURKEY

Pagina 9 van 54

With a view to achieving the objectives identified in the Accession Partnership, Turkey

adopted its “National Programme for the Adoption of the EU Acquis (NPAA)” in 2001,

2003 and 2008. The NPAA contains procedures and a programme for implementing

action in the priority areas, including environment and waste management issues.

In 2006, MoE&U prepared an “EU Integrated Environmental Approximation Strategy for

Turkey (UCES)” for the period between 2007 and 2023, by using the outputs of the

National Environment Strategy and Action Plan (NEAP - 1998) and “environmental

heavy-cost investment planning in Turkey (2005)”.

The strategy outlines technical and institutional infrastructure required for the full

harmonisation by means of adopting EU environmental acquis and effective

implementation of the legislation.

Eventually, the Chapter on Environment has been opened on 21 December 2009.

Before the chapter can be closed, Turkey needs to have integrated waste management

plans, achieve waste collection at source and recycling, reduce organic waste to be

stored at the landfill sites, rehabilitate all wild dumpsites and establish an efficient

“waste management system”, including a well-functioning “hazardous and dangerous

waste management” system as far as solid waste issues are concerned.

This UCES Strategy consists of the cost, objectives, targets, policies and strategies that

need heavy investments (landfills, hazardous waste, packaging waste and waste

incineration directives). Probable cost calculations for the investments to be made by

the private sector are not included in this study, since they fall under a different set of

directives (directives on waste shipment, waste oil, PCB/PCT, batteries and

accumulators, end-of-life vehicles, waste electrical and electronical equipment and

restriction of hazardous substances).

According to the UCES Strategy, 58.5 billion Euro worth of infrastructural investment is

foreseen to adjust the environmental standards to the EU:

Water 33.9 58%

Solid Waste 9.5 16%

Nature protection 0.264 0%

General TOTAL 58.5 100%

Source: EU integrated approximation strategy for Turkey (2007 - 2023)

9.5 billion Euro worth of investment for the solid waste sector is the minimum amount

required for the solid waste sector is the minimum amount required for the:

• closure of old dump sites

• construction of new landfills (for the disposal of hazardous and domestic solid

waste),

• establishment of separate collection systems for dual collection and recyclable

wastes,

• construction of compost facilities,

Page 10: development of sanitary landfills and waste-to-energy from landfill

TURKEY

Pagina 10 van 54

• construction of incineration facilities (for hazardous waste and domestic wastes in

metropolitan municipalities, if necessary and where land area is limited),

• recovery of construction and demolition wastes,

• recovery of mixed waste,

• recovery of separately collected waste,

• establishment of transfer station and the transport system for hazardous waste.

It does not include the investment cost for technological adaptation.

A more specific investment forecast for the waste sector under UCES Strategy suggests

that landfill investment needs will be around 7.5 billion Euros between 2007 and 2023.

1.3 The administrative structure of Turkey - an overview of municipalities

It is the responsibility of the municipalities to establish landfills and integrated solid

waste management facilities. Therefore, some more detailed information is provided

about the administrative structure of Turkey.

There are currently 81 provinces (il). Every province has a governor, appointed by the

central government, responsible for security, public health, education, tourism etc.

Page 11: development of sanitary landfills and waste-to-energy from landfill

NL EVD Internationaal | DEVELOPMENT OF SANITARY LANDFILLS AND WASTE-TO-ENERGY FROM LANDFILL GAS IN

TURKEY

Pagina 11 van 54

Provinces of Turkey

Total population in 2012 is 74.7 million. 76.8% of the total population (57.3 million

people) live in provinces and district centres, whereas 23.2% (17.3 million people)

lives in smaller towns and villages. It is forecasted that the population of Turkey will

increase to 94.6 million people by 2050.

81 provinces of Turkey are sub-divided into 918 districts (ilçe). Within these districts,

there are municipalities, other towns and villages. Municipalities are headed by elected

mayors.

Municipalities can be established in areas were the population is 5,000 and above.

Every province has its municipality, the provincial municipality and every district has

a district municipality.

When the total population of a municipality exceeds 750,000 according to the latest

population census, that municipality may, depending also on its spatial settlement

pattern and level of economic development, be transformed into a metropolitan

municipality (Law Nr. 5216 on metropolitan municipalities). A metropolitan municipality

must comprise at least three districts. Metropolitan municipalities enjoy administrative

and financial autonomy.

There are 16 metropolitan municipalities and 65 provincial municipalities. 143 district

municipalities are located within the borders of metropolitan municipalities and 751 are

located within provincial municipalities. There are 1,966 smaller municipalities. In total,

there are 2,941 municipalities as of 2013.

A new Municipal Law has been adopted in November 2012. Accordingly, the total

number of municipalities will decrease to 1,384 as of March 2014. This means a 42.5%

decrease in the number of municipalities compared to year 2000.

According to the new law, the number of metropolitan municipalities is increased from

16 to 29.

13 municipalities are given metropolitan municipality status: Aydin, Balikesir, Denizli,

Hatay, Malatya, Manisa, Kahramanmaras, Mardin, Mugla, Tekirdag, Trabzon, Sanliurfa

and Van.

The metropolitan municipalities’ borders have been expanded to cover the political

territorial borders of the province, which implies that they have to provide municipal

services to the population living within the borders of their province. In addition,

villages/towns with a population of less than 2,000 people are abolished, which

corresponds to 1,591 municipalities.

A breakdown of the population for each province is in Annex - II of this report.

The current 16 metropolitan municipalities are highlighted in green and the upcoming

new 13 ones are highlighted in yellow in the annex.

1.4 Financing sources of municipal landfill - solid waste management investments

Municipalities depend on the following finance resources:

• Central administrative budget: Article 2 of Law Nr. 5779 regulates the

apportionments from general budget tax revenues to special provincial

administrations and municipalities.

Accordingly, 2.85% of general tax revenues are allocated to provincial

municipalities, 2.50% to district municipalities within metropolitan municipalities and

1.15% to the administration of the provinces. 5% of the total amount of tax revenue

under the general budget collected within the metropolitan municipality boundaries

is allocated back to that metropolitan municipality.

In addition, 30% of the apportionment made from the general budget tax revenues

to district municipalities within metropolitan municipalities also goes to the

metropolitan municipalities.

In 2014, 6% of the total amount of tax revenue under the general budget collected

within the boundaries of the metropolitan municipality will be apportioned to that

metropolitan municipality. Likewise, district municipalities within metropolitan

municipalities will receive 4.5%.

• Municipal revenues: municipal taxes, fees, rents, contributions, e.g. taxes on all

notices and advertisement, entertainment tax, fire insurance tax, environmental

cleaning tax, electricity and gas consumption tax, communications tax etc. Service

revenues, such as on water and waste water. Actually, environmental cleaning tax is

the only financial source for solid waste management services of the municipality

and these fees are calculated based on water consumption.

Page 13: development of sanitary landfills and waste-to-energy from landfill

NL EVD Internationaal | DEVELOPMENT OF SANITARY LANDFILLS AND WASTE-TO-ENERGY FROM LANDFILL GAS IN

TURKEY

Pagina 13 van 54

• Ilbank: Ilbank provides loans with low interest rates for municipalities’ infrastructure

projects.

External Credits: International Finance Institutions (IFI’s) provide loans to local

administrations; e.g. World Bank, European Investment Bank etc.

• EU Funds (IPA funds): Turkey receives financial assistance under the Instrument for

Preaccession Assistance (IPA) from the EU. Grants are provided up to around 85% of

the total eligible cost of the project. The rest of the project is financed by the Turkish

government. The government often allocates up to maximum 6% of the project cost

and the rest needs to be financed by the municipalities themselves with the aid of

Ilbank or others.

• Public - Private Co-operation: Private sector involvement in solid waste projects is

increasing.

Due to the lack of finance, capacity and resources, municipalities started to open this

market to the private sector. Rehabilitation of wild dumpsites, operation of landfills,

energy recovery from landfill gas, separate collection of waste at source are the type

of activities suitable for a PPP contract. Such contracts have to be approved by the

Minister of Interior.

According to the ‘EU Integrated Environmental Approximation Strategy (2007 - 2023)’,

environmental investments depend on the following financial sources:

Solid waste investments are heavy cost investments and it seems that without the

support of the EU and other IFIs, Turkey will not be in a position to realise all the

required investments to reach its 2023 objectives.

9) Kayseri Solid Waste Facility: Tender has been cancelled. Kayseri will most likely

do it with its own resources.

10) Izmir Solid Waste Facility: Cancelled. Izmir Metropolitan Municipality will do it

with its own resources. Tender will be announced within 2013.

The EU started a new technical assistance project in March 2012 for the preparation of

17 integrated solid waste management projects. This project aims to have these

projects ready for financing and implementation with IPA funds. 150 municipalities are

covered by these 17 projects.

The provinces whose municipalities will primarily benefit from the solid waste

management projects are:

Tekirdağ, Diyarbakır, Muğla, Balıkesir, Kastamonu, Balıkesir, Kırklareli, Manisa, Adana,

Artvin, Erzurum, Şanlıurfa, Ordu, Hakkâri and Kahramanmaraş

In June 2012 the European Investment Bank (EIB) has provided 150 million Euros to

Ilbank in the form of a line of credit for financing municipal investment schemes in the

water and solid waste sector throughout Turkey. This is the EIB’s first operation with

Ilbank. Over the last few years, the EIB has already financed a number of large-scale

water and urban transport projects of metropolitan municipalities. However, in order

to scale up its intervention in the water and solid waste sector and reach smaller

municipalities too, the EIB is teaming up with Ilbank to widen its reach in favour of a

broader range of local authorities.

2 Background on landfill development policies

The municipal waste management policies of the MoE&U are based on three pillars,

while producer responsibility and polluter pay principles have also been adopted.

a) Waste management hierarchy,

b) Integrated waste management and

c) Waste union model.

Waste management hierarchy suggests the following order of priorities: waste

prevention in the production phase, waste reduction of quantity and the degree of

hazard of the waste materials, reusing, recycling, and recovering by generating energy,

incineration of the non-recyclable wastes without harming the environment and finally

landfilling.

Integrated waste management refers to the necessity of handling solid waste

management methods, such as waste minimization, prevention at source, recycling,

reuse, composting, energy recovery, etc. within a unified approach that is to reflect

minimum effect on the environment and human health and with a view to ensuring

effectiveness and security in waste management.

Waste Union Model (municipal associations): this model has been created by the

MoE&U in 2003. It foresees neighbouring municipalities with similar characteristics to

come together to jointly perform their waste management duties; e.g. establishing

landfills and the rehabilitation of old dumpsites.

MoE&U is aware that the municipalities used to make the wrong investments due to a

lack of knowledge.

Many municipalities lack the knowledge and infrastructure to deal with their waste

problems. Many differ in characteristics. Therefore, it has been made compulsory that

municipalities obtain prior approval of MoE&U for establishing solid waste management

facilities. In case a municipality is not a member of a Waste Union, the ministry does

not approve its solid waste project. The Ministry encourages the municipalities within a

service area of 30-60 km transport distances to establish municipal associations (waste

unions) with a professional management. To be feasible, waste unions are expected to

serve a population of not less than 300,000 people. In case the municipalities form

waste unions, they can benefit from technical support of MoE&U.

In 2005, a technical assistance study, supported by the EU, on “environmental heavy-

cost investment planning in Turkey” has been conducted by an international

consortium to determine the existing situation of solid waste management in Turkey. It

was realised that it is difficult to develop and implement a waste management model

that fits all municipalities. There are many differently sized municipalities with also

different characteristics. To bring a solution to this problem and taking into account the

demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the regions and provinces, a

grouping was done. For solid waste management studies purposes, Turkey is divided in

three regions and 11 sub-regions:

The map shows these three regions more clearly:

The first region (in yellow) covers the Marmara and Aegean regions in the western part

of the country.

The second region (in green) covers the Mediterranean, Black Sea and Central Anatolian

regions in the central part of Turkey. The third region (in pink) covers Eastern Anatolia

and the Southeast Anatolia regions in the eastern part of Turkey. The metropolitan

municipalities which have a special importance as far as solid waste management is

concerned are shown with a red square.

Based on this study, a “Solid Waste Master Plan” has been drafted in 2006. This plan foresees the establishment of waste unions, development of sanitary landfills and

integrated waste management treatment facilities. Various plans have been prepared for

the reduction of waste, ensuring re-use,

recycling, reducing the cost of solid waste transport and establishment of transfer

stations where necessary. 16 Type Projects have been developed to guide the

municipalities.

Type Projects are developed for six population groups in three different regions:

The Solid Waste Master Plan and the type projects were developed as a guide for the

municipalities.

They are not meant for the metropolitan municipalities.

In 2006, an amendment was made to the Environment Law. Accordingly, municipalities

that do not have any solid waste treatment facility are required to submit their business

plans to the governorships within one year. Eventually, the municipalities with a

population of over 100,000 were given three years, the ones with a population between 100,000 and 50,000 were given 5 years, with a population of between 50,000 and 10,000

were given 7 years and the ones with a population between 10,000 and 2,000 were given

10 years to establish their landfills - solid waste treatment facilities.

In 2008, a Waste Management Action Plan (2008 - 2012) has been prepared by the

MoE&U that adopts the separate collection of waste at source and re-use/recycling as its

main policy. The action plan gives a detailed list of the proposed Waste Unions for 65

provinces. (Annex - III).

The Solid Waste Master Plan (2006) and Waste Management Action Plan (2008 - 2012) together set the solid waste management strategies to be used by provincial

municipalities, excluding metropolitan municipalities, between 2010 and 2030.

The section II-c gives an overview about the municipalities in Turkey and the changes

that are going to take place in the number and the structure of the municipalities in

2014.

3 Waste composition of Turkey

According to the Turkish Statistical Institute’s (TURKSAT) data for the year 2010, the

quantity of solid waste collected by municipalities amounts to 25.28 million tonnes. The

daily amount of solid waste is 1.14 kg per person.

The Solid Waste Master Plan Study (2006) gives the following solid waste composition:

Type of waste % share

Kitchen waste 34%

Other non-combustible 22%

Other combustible 19%

Paper 11%

Glass 6%

Plastics 2%

Cardboard 1%

Metal 1%

Source: Solid waste master plan study (2006)

There are some other studies on waste composition on a provincial, regional or

municipal basis.

The waste management action plan’s (2008-2012) general estimates and forecasts are:

The waste management action plan contains a list of all provinces with their waste

composition and provincial action plans. For the purpose of this report, the total waste

projection and biodegradable waste projection of the provinces in 2007 and in 2012 are

listed in Annex-IV. This projection shows that organic/biodegradable waste content in

many provinces is over 50%.

TURKSTAT’s 2010 statistics also give a breakdown of the disposal methods of the 25.28

million tonnes of solid waste in 2010. 43.5% of waste has been sent to municipal dumpsites, 54.4% to sanitary landfills, 0.8% to compost facilities and 1.3% was subject to

other methods. Compared to 2008, waste to dumpsites decreased by 13.2%, whereas

waste to sanitary landfills increased by 25.6%.

The Regulation for sanitary landfilling of March 2010 brings some extra responsibilities to

municipalities. It takes the 2005 amount as a base year and suggests that the amount of

biodegradable waste going to landfills has to be decreased to 75% in 5 years, 50% in 8

years and 35% in 15 years. It regulates the waste acceptance to the landfill areas;

unprocessed/untreated waste will not be accepted in the sanitary landfill areas anymore.

4 General overview of landfills

Establishment of solid waste management treatment facilities (landfills) increased after

2003. There were only 15 landfill sites in 2003. Only 34% of the waste was brought to

these sanitary landfills, whereas the rest (66%) used to be dumped in forests, lakes,

rivers, seas and open areas. Currently, there are 69 landfills and 21 landfills are under

construction as of end 2012. Existing facilities serve 44 million people, corresponding to approximately 60% of the population. Old wild dumpsites are being rehabilitated and

new modern landfills are being created. 120 landfills are planned to be established up to

2017.

It is estimated that there are approximately 2,000 smaller sized and 50 bigger sized

old/wild dumpsites. Although the exact location and co-ordinates of the wild dumpsites

are not known, Turkey sets a target of rehabilitating all wild dumpsites and establishing

sanitary landfills to serve all the population by 2023.

Present-day landfills are located in the following areas: Afyonkarahisar, Aksaray (EPASA), Ankara (2), Şereflikoçhisar (EPASA), Antalya, Patara

(EPASA), Manavgat, Kumluca (EPASA), Aydın, Didim, Kuşadası (EU), Bayburt, Bursa, Bolu,

5 Energy recovery from landfill gas

Turkey’s energy consumption is increasing every year. To decrease its dependency

on imported petroleum and natural gas, the country encourages electricity

generation from renewable sources, which includes landfill gas and biogas.

Incentives given to private sector make it attractive for private sector to enter this

sector. This section provides information about these regulations and a list of companies active in this sector. Biogas production from waste water treatment

activities has been excluded from this analysis.

5.1 Relevant laws and regulations concerning energy recovery from landfill gas

Energy generation from landfill gas is regulated by the following laws and regulations:

- Electricity Market Law (Law Nr. 4628): The purpose of this law is to ensure the

development of a financially sound and transparent electricity market operating

in a competitive environment under provisions of civil law; the delivery of

sufficient, good quality, low cost and environment-friendly electricity to consumers and to ensure the autonomous regulation and supervision of this

market. The law covers the generation of electricity. There is a new draft

electricity market law currently being debated in the Parliament. It is expected to

replace Law Nr. 4628 within 2013.

- Law on Utilisation of Renewable Energy Resources for the Purpose of Generating

Electrical Energy (Law No. 5346) (also referred to as the ‘Renewables Law’) was

enacted in 2005. Renewable energy resources within the scope of this law are

defined as wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, biogas, wave, current and tidal energy resources, and river-type hydraulic generation plants with a reservoir

area of less than 15 km2. In 2007, an incentive for electricity production through

renewable sources was announced. The law guaranteed a tariff range of 5 - 5.5

Euro cents per kWh for 10 years. On 29.12.2010 the law has been revised and

the guaranteed tariff has been amended to 13.3 US$cent/kWh for electricity

production based on biogas. See below table.

Renewable Energy Source US$ cents/kWh

Hydropower 7.3

Wind power 7.3

Geothermal 10.5

Biomass (incl. landfill gas) 13.3

Solar 13.3

Page 24: development of sanitary landfills and waste-to-energy from landfill

NL EVD Internationaal | DEVELOPMENT OF SANITARY LANDFILLS AND WASTE-TO-ENERGY FROM LANDFILL GAS IN

TURKEY

Pagina 24 van 54

The law applies for 10 years to power generators completed until the end of 2015.

Renewable producers will also benefit from an 85% discount on transmission cost for a

period of 10 years.

- “Regulation for Production of Electricity without a License” of December 2010

(Official Gazette no. 27774), eliminates the requirement for a licence from EMRA

(Energy Market Regulatory Authority) for the production of electricity through

renewable sources at facilities with less than 500 kW of installed capacity and at

micro-cogeneration facilities with installed capacity of less than 50 kW. These producers will be able to sell their excess production to the grid. The price will be

set as the feed-in tariff if the electricity is produced through renewable sources,

while the price will be the average wholesale price for micro-cogeneration

facilities.

Additional incentives for using local (Turkish) equipment may add 0.4 cents to 2.4 cents

per kWh to the price for five years.

The following table depicts the details of these additional incentives for local components:

Voluntary Carbon Emission Trading Market in Turkey: Turkey is a party to Annex-I of the

United Nations Framework Convention on Climate change (UNFCCC) since May 2004.

Turkey has also ratified the Kyoto Protocol on 29 August 2009 but is not included in

Annex-B. Therefore, Turkey does not have any international commitments to reduce

greenhouse emissions (GHG), but also cannot benefit from the clean development

mechanisms (CDM) to access finance through emission trading. However, there exists a

Voluntary Carbon Market. Companies, municipalities, NGOs and individuals can trade

‘Voluntary Emission Reduction - VER’ certificates at this market and can gain additional

financial benefits for their GHG emission reductions.

Turkish companies mostly use the Gold Standard’s VERs. According to the Gold Standard,

the Turkish voluntary carbon market is valued at 424 million USD and the standard has

an 80% market share. Price per tonne C02 equivalent at the voluntary carbon market

in Turkey varies between 4-5 USD.

Since 2010, MoE&U registers all voluntary carbon projects.

An overview of the relevant projects listed in the voluntary carbon market is shown below (May 2012):

There are 13 waste to energy based on landfill gas projects included in that list. All

landfill gas projects developed in Turkey are included in the voluntary carbon market

system.

According to 2010 data, total GHG emissions - as an equivalent to C02 - has been

estimated to be 401.9 million tonnes in Turkey. GHG emissions have increased by 115%

compared to 1990. In 1990, C02 equivalent emissions were 3.39 tonnes per person

which has increased to 5.51 tons per person in 2010.

Agriculture 27.1 7%

Industrial process 53.9 13%

Energy 285.1 71%

TOTAL 401.9 100%

Source: MoE&U, Climate Change Department

71% of GHG emissions are caused by energy generation activities, followed by industrial processes 13%, waste 9% and agriculture 7%. 75.6% of waste emissions are attributed to

solid waste. 19.5% is caused by waste water and 3.1% by incineration facilities.

MoE&U has identified the necessary objectives and strategic targets regarding

preparation for the coming post-2012 climate regime. The objectives are; fulfilling

UNFCCC’s obligations, taking control of GHG emissions, developing clean technologies,

increasing green innovation capacities and green corporate capacities. The strategic

targets are developing a national mitigation action plan, strengthening the governmental

structure regarding climate change and engaging in international negotiations as policy

makers. In the long term, Turkey aims at establishing its national emission registry and trading scheme in order to promote low carbon economy.

In April 2012, Turkey has adopted a new regulatory mechanism on ‘Mandatory

Monitoring, reporting and verification of emission data (MRV)’. The first year of

monitoring will be 2015, followed by the reporting in 2016.

5.3 Information on companies

Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality - Environmental Protection and Waste Materials Valuation Industry and Trade Co (ISTAC) www.istac.com.tr

ISTAC was established in 1994 as an economic enterprise of Istanbul Metropolitan

Municipality for appropriate disposal of solid waste. There used to be many wild dump

site areas in Istanbul: Habibler, Umraniye - Hekimbasi, Yakacik, Aydinli, Halkali, Sisli -

Ferikoy and Kemerburgaz - Hasdal and these areas were posing a threat to human

health. In 1995, ISTAC started to close down these wild dumpsites and replace them with

new modern sanitary landfills.

There are three main areas under the responsibility of ISTAC:

- Hasdal - Kemerburgaz wild dumpsite: It is the biggest wild dumpsite area in

Istanbul. It received garbage as from 1950s until it was closed down in 1995. It

covers an area of 57 hectares. Amount of accumulated waste is estimated to

be 5 million cubic meters. ISTAC generates energy from this area by using 4 gas

engines. ISTAC will apply to EMRA to renew its licence this year.

ISTAC has opened two new landfills in 1995, operating on the garbage cell storage

method. Both landfill sites are projected to receive and store garbage for 25 years. ISTAC has transferred the operation of some parts of these landfills for energy generation to

Ortadogu Enerji in 2007.

- Kemerburgaz - Odayeri landfill site on the European side: It has a daily capacity

of 6,100 tonnes of receiving garbage from the Baruthane, Yenibosna, Halkali

transfer stations. Total amount of waste accumulated is around 40 - 45 million

tonnes. The area which cannot receive any garbage anymore, containing 32

million tonnes of waste and an area of 52 hectares has been transferred to

Ortadogu Enerji for a period of 24 years.

- Sile - Komurcuoda landfill site on the Asian side: It has a daily garbage receiving

capacity of 2,650 tonnes from the Hekimbasi and Aydinli transfer stations. The

part of the landfill containing 15 million tonnes of waste was transferred to

Ortadogu Enerji for energy generation.

ISTAC expects to operate these two landfills for another 15 years and transfer the areas

for energy generation purposes in due time.

Ekolojik Enerji www.ekolojikenerji.com.tr

Ekolojik Enerji has been established in 2003 by Omer Salman. The company promotes

itself as the first private company in Turkey in the field of energy recovery from waste by

gasification process after PETKIM and IZAYDAS. Omer Salman’s previous company,

Yapisal Construction, was involved in the development of the two modern landfill sites of

ISTAC, as well as the rehabilitation of the Hasdal wild dumpsite area. The company’s

affinity with this sector helped it to further improve itself in this field.

Ekolojik Enerji’s main area of interest is “integrated waste management facilities”.

Ekolojik Energy has so far two licences from EMRA:

- Istanbul – Kemerburgaz (HASDAL area): This area is very close to the ISTAC’s

Hasdal - Kemerburgaz wild dumpsite. Ekolojik Enerji has conducted a R&D

project with the support of Scientific and Technological Research Council of

Turkey (TUBITAK) to recover energy from municipal solid waste in 2007.

Afterwards, Ekolojik Enerji shifted its focus to industrial waste treatment,

receiving waste from some 700 industrial companies. It utilised a gasification

process for hazardous waste. Because of environmental reasons, this facility was closed down by a decision of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality in May 2012.

Ekolojik Energy intends to shift the activities of this plant to the Tekirdag - Corlu

area.

- Tekirdag - Corlu: Ekolojik Enerji has received a licence to establish an “integrated

waste treatment and energy production facility” in Tekirdag - Corlu. The

company expects to receive up to 800,000 tonnes of waste from 1,000 industrial

companies. The company aims to treat 300,000 tonnes of industrial waste,

120,000 tonnes of hazardous waste, 25,000 tonnes of waste cable, 5,000 tonnes

of electrical and electronical waste, 100,000 tonnes of sewage sludge, 5,000 tonnes of medical waste 20,000 tonnes of mining waste, 5,000 tonnes of

vegetable oil, 250,000 tonnes of end-of-life tyres, 1,000 tonnes of batteries and

accumulators and 30,000 tonnes of construction waste. The company intends to

start with a 15 MW installed capacity of energy generation that will most likely

be gradually increased to 60 MW. Ekolojik Enerji needs to make separate

agreements with the municipalities to receive their municipal waste. The

Tekirdag - Corlu facility is planned to enter into operation in 2013. However,

there is currently strong protest from local inhabitants against this facility.

Additional Note: The Waste Management Action Plan (2008 - 2012) foresees the

establishment of 5 industrial integrated waste treatment facilities in five different

regions of Turkey and Tekirdag- Corlu is among these five regions.

Ortadogu Enerji www.ortadoguenerji.com.tr

Ortadoğu Enerji, which is part of Ortadogu Group of companies, has been established in

2007 for the purpose of energy generation from landfill gas.

Ortadogu Enerji generates energy from landfill gas at the two landfill sites of ISTAC. Each

gas engine used has a capacity of 1,451 MW.

- Kemerburgaz - Odayeri Landfill site: The area which has been transferred to

Ortadogu Enerji consists of 32 million tonnes of accumulated waste from 1995

till 2008. It covers a surface area of 52 hectares. With an installed capacity of 25 -

30 MWh, ISTAC projects the energy generation from this area to be 2.203 GwH

between 2007 and 2030. Around 13 - 15 gas engines are being used at this site.

- Sile - Komurcuoda Landfill site: It covers a surface area of 44 hectares and

contains 15 million tonnes of waste. Waste accepted at this site between 1995

and 2008 have been transferred to Ortadogu Enerji for energy recovery

purposes. Körfez Enerji Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. (no web-site available)

Korfez Enerji has been established under Ortadogu Enerji for the special purpose of

operating the two landfills of IZAYDAS in 2010. IZAYDAS, Izmit Waste and Residue

Treatment Incineration and Recycling Co. Inc., is an enterprise of Kocaeli Metropolitan

Municipality. IZAYDAS has transferred the operation rights of two landfill areas, namely

“Solaklar” and “Dilovasi” to Ortadogu Enerji in 2010.

Solaklar Sanitary Landfill area has been built in 1997 by IZAYDAS. It is so far the biggest

and the only landfill area of Kocaeli Municipality. It has an area of 3 million square

meters. It receives approximately 1,500 tonnes of waste daily from Kocaeli and Gebze.

Waste from Gebze will be transferred to Dilovasi landfill as of May 2013. Then Solaklar

landfill will receive around 1,000 – 1,100 tonnes of waste daily.

Korfez Enerji started energy generation from landfill gas from Solaklar area in March

2012, by using two gas engines. It has 2.4 MWe of installed capacity.

Bereket Enerji www.bereketenerji.com.tr

Bereket Enerji has been established in 1995 to produce energy in Denizli, by two

businessmen from Denizli, Ceyhan Saldanli and Ali Yagli. Bereket Enerji is mainly active in

hydroelectric power plant projects.

Denizli municipality started a new sanitary landfill area in 2003. In 2008, the amount of

accumulated waste reached 1 million tonnes and is 20 - 25 meter high. Denizli is a sister

Page 32: development of sanitary landfills and waste-to-energy from landfill

Pagina 32 van 54

city of Almelo and the energy recovery from landfill gas concept has become known to

the municipality during their visit to the Netherlands. Eventually, Denizli Municipality has

made an agreement with Bereket Enerji for energy recovery purposes from this landfill.

Bereket Enerji has made an investment of 1 million USD, using Austrian and German

technology. The facility was put into operation in February 2011. 640 kWh of energy is

currently being produced by using only one gas engine. Composition of waste decreases

the quality and the efficiency of the energy obtained. There is no separate collection at

source system, nor any recycling activity. The facility was originally planned to use 4 gas engines, but currently the only one gas engine is being operated temporarily.

CEV Enerji / CEV MARMARA www.cev-tr.com

CEV Enerji is originally a South- Korean company. It has been established in Turkey in

2009. It co-operates with Bolu municipalities and Gaziantep Metropolitan Municipality

concerning landfill gas.

- Bolu Landfill: Receives waste since 1994. Nowadays 200 tonnes of waste per day

is being received. There is an accumulated waste of 2 million tonnes. Height of

waste at each storage cell varies between 20 and 40 mt. Energy generation

license is obtained for an installed capacity of 1.1 MW. The Bolu Waste

treatment facility has been active for 1.5 years. Only one gas engine with a

capacity of 1,131 kWh is being used. It operates at a 50% capacity.

- Gaziantep - Sahinbey: Has an installed capacity of 5.65 MW. A contract with

Gaziantep Municipality was signed in October 2008. This facility is in operation

for almost three years. It accepts waste on a free of charge basis. It utilizes five gas engines each with a capacity of 1,131 kWh. It operates at 10% capacity.

The capacity utilisation rate of both facilities is quite low. Cev Enerji needs to complete

the rehabilitation works. Approximately 2.3 million USD worth of investment is needed.

The South Korean company’s main area of expertise is Compressed Natural Gas (CNG).

Currently, a R&D study is being carried out concerning the conversion of landfill gas to

CNG. The company has already converted 18 old busses of IETT (Istanbul Municipality) running on diesel to CNG which resulted in 50% of savings.

Eventually, IZAYDAS started its biogas facility in 2012 with an installed capacity of 0.35

MWe. IZAYDAS intends to increase the capacity to 0.7 MWe in the near future.

Mersin Metropolitan Municipality Mersin metropolitan municipality rehabilitates its old wild dumpsite and established a

sanitary landfill in 2008 with its own resources. The composition of waste of the old

dumpsite was not found feasible to generate electricity. Therefore, Mersin just

incinerates it without any energy recovery. New sanitary landfill was initially designed to receive 460 tonnes of waste a day, but it

currently receives 950 tonnes of waste per day. Mersin feels the necessity to initiate an

integrated waste management system.
