Book Natural Gas Exploitation in the Eastern Mediterranean: a Holistic Approach(Kadir Has University Center for Energy and Sustainable Development, 2023) Ediger, Volkan; Elfeky, Rahma; Karampalis, Dimitrios; Mengi, Hazal; Tan, Sadık Erkan; Bowlus, John Vincent; Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom’s Türkiye OfficeDiscoveries of significant natural gas reserves in the Eastern Mediterranean since 2010 have elevated the region’s geopolitical importance from being strictly based on security to one also based on energy and has thus drawn in outside powers that are eager to address their energy-supply security needs. The energy crises triggered first by the supply chain disruptions in 2021 and then the Russia-Ukraine War in 2022 have elevated the region’s importance as a potential energy supplier and transit hub for Europe. This report takes a holistic approach to critically assess the activities carried out in the Eastern Mediterranean region in the fields of exploration, discovery, development, production, and export of natural gas, and the delimitation of exclusive economic zones (EEZs), as well as the effects that these activities have on the economies, policies, and strategies of Eastern Mediterranean countries at the interstate, regional and global levels. Previous studies have generally evaluated the activities related to natural gas in the Eastern Mediterranean from narrow perspectives and only a very small number have dealt with all these elements considered together and with analysis of cause-and-effect relationships on a regional or global scale. The authors deploy a systemic approach that is similar to the petroleum system concept, which evaluates hydrocarbon generation, migration, accumulation, and entrapment in an entire petroleum system on the basis of its essential elements (sources, reservoirs, seals, and overburden rocks) and processes (trap formations and generation-migration-accumulation) as well as the preservation time and, most importantly, the critical moments when events are significant enough to affect the whole system. Likewise, this report uses qualitative and quantitative media analysis of six newspapers – two from Egypt, two from Greece, and two from Turkey from the first discovery of gas by Israel in 1999 to 2023 – to determine the critical moments that have brought what the authors term the Eastern Mediterranean gas exploitation system (EMGES) to a crossroads, where either conflict and confrontation or stability and cooperation will prevail. No one can predict when this system will be overwhelmed by the essential elements (the ten Eastern Mediterranean states), the essential processes (activities related to gas exploitation and delimitation of EEZs), and the critical moments (major conflict periods). This is rendered even more uncertain by a rapidly shifting geopolitical context that is being shaped by the energy transition from fossil fuels to clean energy sources as well as the transition from a unipolar to a multipolar world. Given how interconnected all these factors are, only a holistic approach can help illustrate how the EMGES has reached this crossroads. For stability and cooperation to prevail in EMGES, two conditions must be met. First, countries must recognize that they are directly interconnected and depend on one another and a common vision that balances the economic and strategic interests of each country to forge development and sustainability. Second, a robust cooperative structural framework must be developed that does not exclude any individual country and involves external powers, most notably the EU and the United States.Conference Object Energy Management in Organized Industrial Zones: Promoting the Green Energy Transition in Turkish Manufacturing Industry(IEEE Computer Society, 2024) Ediger,V.Ş.; Küçüker,M.A.; Berk,I.; Inan,A.; Üçtuǧ,F.G.Organized Industrial Zones (OIZ), which gained legal status by Law 4562 of 2000, played a significant role in Turkish industrialization policies, particularly in improving Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). The energy management (EM) within OIZs is essential for Türkiye's green transition and 2053 net-zero pathway. Following the publication of a directive on OIZ's electricity market activities in 2006, enterprises can purchase electricity directly from OIZ management. Moreover, the Energy Efficiency Law No. 5627 of 2007 required OIZs to establish an energy management unit (EMU) to serve the participants with less than 1000 tons of oil equivalent (toe) energy consumption. EMUs provide OIZ management with a unique opportunity to enhance sustainable energy transition by increasing renewable energy production and improving the energy efficiency of participating enterprises. The primary goal of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of energy management units in OIZs in encouraging energy efficiency and green energy transition in the Turkish manufacturing industry. As a case study, we examine EM in the Adana Haci Sabanci Organized Industrial Zone (Adana OIZ), which ranks third among OIZs regarding electricity consumption. We analyze data on electricity infrastructures, roof-top PVs, invoice settlements/offsets, energy efficiency investments, and GHG emissions between 2017 and 2023. Our preliminary findings suggest that EMU in the Adana OIZ makes a very important contribution to the green transition of industrial establishments and that regulatory changes over the last decades have had positive effects. The share of renewable energy in the total energy mix increased from 1.6% to 21.4% over six years, and there has been a noteworthy enhancement in energy efficiency, reaching 27% in 22 companies evaluated. The main policy implication of our findings is that the role of regulatory bodies and efficient energy management in OIZs will be critical in achieving Türkiye's net zero target of 2053. © 2024 IEEE.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5The Effect of Energy Geopolitics on International Climate Change Initiatives(Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği, 2017) Ediger, Volkan S.In this article in general the relationship between international climate change initiatives and energy geopolitics was analyzed and in particular the developments in energy geopolitics were investigated with a historical point of view by dividing the years between 1965 and 2014 into periods of geopolitical intensity and geopolitical stability based on long-term periodic variations in oil prices. More specifically the reasons why international initiatives such as the Kyoto Protocol regarded as an important agreement for imposing commitments in climate change mitigation have not been sufficiently successful were investigated. Regarding the Kyoto Protocol the failure stemmed from three main reasons. The first and the most important reason was the intensification of geopolitical tensions on a global scale. The second reason was the differences among states in terms of their energy needs and possession of indigenous energy sources. The last reason was the ambiguity regarding the role of the state and the market at the implementation level. The author links the general failure in the efforts to tackle climate change to the developments in energy geopolitics and argues that the competition periods in energy geopolitics as observed during the oil crises decrease the chances of success for international initiatives on climate change.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 1Introduction: Energy Economics Finance and Geostrategy(Springer International Publishing, 2018) Dorsman, Andre B.; Ediger, Volkan S.; Karan, Mehmet BahaSince countries’ economic independence is based on energy security decisions on energy economy and financing are assessed mainly by geostrategic considerations. Economically optimal decisions are not enough regarding geostrategy. This situation makes it difficult to make decisions in energy markets and it creates considerable controversy. The role of financial markets is to measure the risk of this complex structure or energy projects and price them in financial basis. Understanding behavior of energy markets it is necessary to look at them on an event basis. The limited availability and unequal distribution of energy sources and different pricing and cost mechanism of energy supplies are hardening to arrive a simple solution. Therefore the research articles of this book are aimed to open new perspectives for the reader and researchers. © Springer International Publishing AG part of Springer Nature 2018.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8State capitalism and hydrocarbon security in China and Russia(Elsevier, 2021) Ediger, Volkan S.; Bowlus, John, V; Dursun, Ahmet FarukThis study seeks to investigate how and why state capitalism developed in China and Russia in the oil and gas sectors and explain why two countries that have contrasting energy-security challenges use state capitalism to solve them. It argues that state control over the oil and gas sectors has succeeded in achieving their respective goals, bolstered bilateral hydrocarbon ties between the two countries, buffered each against the geopolitics and financial volatility of oil and gas markets, and offered greater flexibility to shape their respective energy regimes over the last two decades. Still, state capitalism presents geopolitical and commercial challenges as the energy transition away from hydrocarbons advances in the coming decades.Master Thesis Potential and Status of Renewable Energy Development in Energy Import-Dependent Countries Turkey and Pakistan(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2021) Majeed, Mohsina; Ediger, Şevket Volkan; Kirkil, GökhanHuman life cannot be imagined without the use of energy. Demand for energy, meanwhile, is increasing daily across the globe, while the uses and sources of energy have changed over time. Fossil fuels have dominated other energy sources since the 19th century but began causing problems such as climate change. In order to address these problems, renewable energy sources (RES) were accepted as an alternative energy sources in recent years and technical and economic developments make possible the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables at an accelerated rate. Turkey and Pakistan are both developing countries with large populations and high levels of energy-import dependency, 77% and 80%, respectively. At the same time, Turkey and Pakistan both have enormous potential for RE such as solar, wind, hydro, biomass and geothermal, according to the validated RE-potential maps of these countries. Turkey and Pakistan are realizing renewable energy transition and seeking to shape their current energy structure in the favor of RES. The factors affecting RED in Turkey and Pakistan are enormous RE potential, supportive RE policies by government and energy security issues. There are some political, economic, technical and social problems for RED in Turkey and Pakistan that include lack of proper RE policies, extended and time-consuming governmental procedures, the lack of domestic production of goods, and other financing problems for RE projects. If proper policy support and efficient investment become available, RES can provide enough power to fulfill the country's energy demand and bring prosperity and sustainability to both countries. Current RED in these countries is not sufficient for complete energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables. However, RE potential in these countries is enough for complete energy transition. According to SWOT analysis Pakistan's RE sector has various investment opportunities for Turkish investors. It has a validated RE source mapping system and untapped highly potential solar and windy areas. Mini-hydro plants is also a successful RE business model in Pakistan. The government of Pakistan is also offering various incentives for RE investors.

In addition, countries, which are aiming to become more carbon neutral, are replacing coal with natural gas. These reasons have led the natural gas industry to grow and the gas business has gained an international dimension. In order to keep up with these developments, countries liberalize their gas markets by opening them to competition. The two important pillars of liberalization are third-party access to the physical infrastructure and the demolition of monopolies in the market. The European Union (EU) has implemented a series of reforms to be able to fully liberalize its internal gas markets. Turkey, the fourth largest gas-consuming country in Europe, has also made a series of reforms in order to harmonize with Europe during the EU accession process since 2001. However, Turkey’s goals to open its internal gas market to competition have only been partially achieved. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the performance of the Turkish natural gas market and to determine to what extent gas market reforms have been successful. The results of a detailed examination of the market and the survey carried out among the major market players have shown that the Turkish natural gas market should be improved in transparency, competitiveness, and cost-based pricing.Master Thesis Renewable Energy in Turkey: a Cleaner, Self- Sufficient Alternative To Coal(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2019) Karagöz, Gözde Nur; Ediger, Volkan S.The world is in the midst of a transformative energy transition, moving to renewable energy sources from fossil fuels. The biggest reasons for this transition are global climate change and resource scarcity, both of which are caused by the use of fossil fuels. Among fossil fuels, coal has the highest emissions and causes more significant damage to people and the environment. Despite its negative effects, coal has a large share of the world's energy mix. However, many countries are moving away from coal and switch to renewable energy sources. Turkey is not one of those countries, as the energy system is still heavily dependent on fossil fuels and coal specifically. Turkey is planning on new coal-fired power plants in addition to existing ones and is generally supporting the coal industry. In addition to the environmental harm to Turkey – and the world – of its coal usage, most of the coal that Turkey burns is imported, thus contributing to the country's trade deficit. In order to limit the negative effects of coal use, Turkey needs to utilize its high renewable energy potential. This study reviews the current situation of coal and renewable energy sources in Turkey. It aims to look at current coal and renewable energy policies and compare them. According to this analysis, it will then offer suggestions for how Turkey can phase out coal and switch to renewable energies.Book Citation - Scopus: 3Energy Economy, Finance and Geostrategy(Springer International Publishing, 2018) Dorsman, A.B.; Ediger, V.Ş.; Baha, Karan, M.This volume investigates the impact of energy issues on geostrategy. The crucial importance of energy and the fact that fossil fuels are not equally distributed among countries means that decisions are not only based on financial arguments, but also on the political impact. It can be said that “Energy is Politics”. In three parts - 1) Energy Economy; 2) Finance; and 3) Geostrategy - academics and practitioners address both economic and political questions and present cases from several countries. This is the sixth volume in a series on energy organized by the Centre for Energy and Value Issues (CEVI). The previous volumes in the series were: Financial Aspects in Energy (2011), Energy Economics and Financial Markets (2012), Perspectives on Energy Risk (2014), Energy Technology and Valuation Issues (2015) and Energy and Finance (2016). © Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018.Master Thesis Nil Nehri Havzasında Hidro-güvenlikleştirme: Mısır, Sudan ve Etiyopya Arasındaki Gerd Anlaşmazlığının Eleştirel Söylem Analizi(2024) Elfıkhi, Rahmet; Ediger, Volkan Ş.Bu tez, Nil Nehri Havzasındaki su çatışmasını, özellikle Büyük Etiyopya Rönesans Barajı (GERD) ve bu barajın kıyıdaş devletler üzerindeki etkilerini incelemektedir. Nil'in su çatışmaları ve GERD'in etkileri üzerine kapsamlı araştırmalar yapılmış olmasına rağmen, bu bağlamda güvenlik teorisinin uygulanması yeterince ele alınmamıştır. Bu çalışma, Buzan ve arkadaşlarının (1998) güvenlik teorisini, Mirumachi ve Allan'ın (2007) ikili çatışma yaklaşımını ve Reyes'in (2011) eleştirel söylem analizinden türetilmiş meşrulaştırma stratejilerini kullanarak GERD etrafındaki söylemi analiz etmektedir. Araştırma, Batı dışı ülkelerin su kıtlığı ve anlaşmazlıklarla nasıl başa çıktığını anlamadaki bir boşluğu doldurmakta ve su kaynaklarının güvenlik altına alınmasının zamanlamasını ve motivasyonlarını incelemektedir. 2013 yılından Ekim 2023'e kadar Etiyopya, Mısır ve Sudan'ın GERD ile ilgili söylemleri analiz edildiğinde, su güvenlik altına almanın bağlamsal tetikleyicilerden etkilenen doğrusal olmayan bir süreç olduğu ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu tetikleyiciler arasında su kıtlığı, gıda güvenliği, siyasi değişiklikler ve jeopolitik rekabet bulunmaktadır. Felaket olayları, siyasi değişimler ve güç asimetrisini etkileyen jeopolitik rekabet, güvenlik altına alma sürecini önemli ölçüde etkilemiştir. Bulgular, Daoudi'nin (2009) güç asimetrilerinin etkileşimleri şekillendirdiğini destekleyerek, pazarlık gücü ve zamanla gelişen çıkarların bu dinamiklerde kritik rol oynadığını vurgulamaktadır. Çalışma, güvenlik teorisinin yüksek rütbeli ulusal yetkililer tarafından yönlendirildiğini göstererek, yerel aktörlerin bu süreci yönlendirmediğini ortaya koymaktadır. GERD anlaşmazlığı devam etmekte ve Mısır ile Sudan konuyu giderek daha fazla güvenlik altına almaktadır.
