	Is It Realistic to Target 5 GW Installed Power for Offshore Wind by 2035?
	Session Description: In 2050, offshore wind power plants, which are expected to be the world’s cheapest source of electricity by the IEA, promise great potential for Turkey as well as for all countries. Turkey’s Energy Plan envisages reaching 5GW installed capacity by 2035. In this session, we will discuss what Turkey needs to do to reach 5GW installed capacity at a time when all countries are struggling to reach their offshore wind targets. We will discuss the supply chain and human resources required to build an offshore wind industry, the regulatory framework we need for attracting investors and the challenges that await us in grid connection and construction phases.

	Energy Storage: LI-ION, Emerging Technologies and Green Hydrogen
	Session Description: Considering that green transformation and digitalization are the most important agenda of the planet due to climate change, and that studies on this subject are continuing rapidly, especially in developed regions, it is an inevitable reality that Turkey should take part in this transformation due to its location and integration into the world economy. Green transformation covers many areas from production to waste cycle, energy management, transportation, building management and energy efficiency. In this session, we will talk about the place of hydrogen, LI-ION and alternative storage technologies in the green transformation and their contribution to the overall goal, and we will try to answer the question of whether the breakpoint in reaching the goal will be realized through these technologies.

	A New Page in Renewable Energy Investments: Wind Power Plants for Self Consumption
	Session Description: The electricity generation for self-consumption legislation has been a successful model for consumers to generate their own electricity in our country since the day it was published, and it has been an important catalyst for ensuring energy supply security and for the spread and rapid implementation of investments in the transition to renewable energy. One of the important instruments for achieving the goals of meeting sustainable production from renewable energy and reducing emissions in accordance with the climate action plan and the effects of the Paris Climate Agreement, which we are a signatory to for a sustainable world, and the Green Deal implemented by the European Union, of which we are the largest exporter, is the use of renewable energy for self-consumption. In this context, in our session, we will talk about the impact of industry on consumption, the use of renewable energy in self-consumption and the effects of supporting legislation, and we will exchange ideas on areas of improvement in legislation and project development activities and new technologies in order to expand the implementation of wind power plants in this context.

	Asset Optimization by Using the Power of Data
	Session Description: Big data analytics and artificial intelligence applications stand out as one of the most important topics of digitalization applications in energy, which have become widespread with developing technologies. Thanks to the transformation of data into information and information into timely and accurate actions in applications supported by the developments in data collection and processing technologies, which have increased in parallel with the exponential increase in processing power in recent years, it has become possible to increase production efficiency, reduce continuous costs through optimization of operation and maintenance processes, and more importantly, minimize the failures in critical equipment and production losses due to these failures. In this session, where we will touch on preventive maintenance, data analytics and asset management in wind power plants, we will be discussing how to optimize operation and maintenance processes with our valuable speakers operating in this field.

	The Future of Renewable Energy: Energy Islands, Floating Wind Farms, HVDC, and Power-to-X
	Session Description: Grid operators are seeking alternative solutions to the relatively low installed capacity and variable generation profiles of renewable energy projects. Renewable energy islands, which can be installed both onshore and offshore, have become competitive with conventional power generation plants, with installation capacities of 1 GW or more at a single point. Floating wind energy technology can provide support to achieve higher efficiency from offshore energy islands. Innovative energy transmission and conversion technologies such as HVDC and Power-to-X are needed to transmit the generated energy to consumers.
