Article Citation - Scopus: 1Machine Learning and Scenario-Based Forecasting of Türkiye’s Renewable Energy Transition toward Net-Zero 2053(Elsevier Ltd, 2026-05) Sutcu, Muhammed; Yildiz, Baris; Sahin, Nurettin; Almomany, Abedalmuhdi; Gulbahar, Ibrahim TumayThe issue of global warming has been identified as one of the most critical challenges of the 21st century, with the consumption of fossil fuels being identified as a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions. In response to these challenges, countries worldwide are expediting their transition towards renewable energy sources to meet international climate commitments, such as the Paris Agreement, and to achieve long-term sustainability goals. Türkiye has established a target to achieve net-zero emissions by 2053. This objective is consistent with both the nation's domestic energy strategy and its international commitments. Nevertheless, the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources is impeded by geographical, economic, and technological constraints. The present study aims to assess the capacity and efficiency of renewable energy in Türkiye with environmental protocols and future electricity demand projections. Electricity generation, transmission data, and national energy plans are used to identify future electricity generation and capacity trends. In the context of this study, a range of machine learning models is executed across diverse scenarios, yielding a series of outcomes. Consequently, the repercussions of regulatory measures and financial investments were examined, and prospective inferences were derived. The findings underscore the pivotal role of scenario-based modeling in formulating sustainable energy policies and directing investment decisions within the context of climate change mitigation.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 9Probabilistic Assessment of Wind Power Plant Energy Potential Through a Copula-Deep Learning Approach in Decision Trees(Cell Press, 2024-04) Sahin, Kubra Nur; Sutcu, MuhammedIn the face of environmental degradation and diminished energy resources, there is an urgent need for clean, affordable, and sustainable energy solutions, which highlights the importance of wind energy. In the global transition to renewable energy sources, wind power has emerged as a key player that is in line with the Paris Agreement, the Net Zero Target by 2050, and the UN 2030 Goals, especially SDG-7. It is critical to consider the variable and intermittent nature of wind to efficiently harness wind energy and evaluate its potential. Nonetheless, since wind energy is inherently variable and intermittent, a comprehensive assessment of a prospective site's wind power generation potential is required. This analysis is crucial for stakeholders and policymakers to make well-informed decisions because it helps them assess financial risks and choose the best locations for wind power plant installations. In this study, we introduce a framework based on Copula-Deep Learning within the context of decision trees. The main objective is to enhance the assessment of the wind power potential of a site by exploiting the intricate and non-linear dependencies among meteorological variables through the fusion of copulas and deep learning techniques. An empirical study was carried out using wind power plant data from Turkey. This dataset includes hourly power output measurements as well as comprehensive meteorological data for 2021. The results show that acknowledging and addressing the non-independence of variables through innovative frameworks like the Copula-LSTM based decision tree approach can significantly improve the accuracy and reliability of wind power plant potential assessment and analysis in other real-world data scenarios. The implications of this research extend beyond wind energy to inform decision-making processes critical for a sustainable energy future.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 15Optimizing Electric Vehicle Charging Station Location on Highways: A Decision Model for Meeting Intercity Travel Demand(MDPI, 2023-12-11) Gulbahar, Ibrahim Tumay; Sutcu, Muhammed; Almomany, Abedalmuhdi; Ibrahim, Babul Salam K. S. M. KaderElectric vehicles have emerged as one of the top environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. The development of a comprehensive charging infrastructure, particularly determining the optimal locations for charging stations, is essential for the widespread adoption of electric vehicles. Most research on this subject focuses on popular areas such as city centers, shopping centers, and airports. With numerous charging stations available, these locations typically satisfy daily charging needs in routine life. However, the availability of charging stations for intercity travel, particularly on highways, remains insufficient. In this study, a decision model has been proposed to determine the optimal placement of electric vehicle charging stations along highways. To ensure a practical approach to the location of charging stations, the projected number of electric vehicles in Turkiye over the next few years is estimated by using a novel approach and the outcomes are used as crucial input in the facility location model. An optimization technique is employed to identify the ideal locations for charging stations on national highways to meet customer demand. The proposed model selects the most appropriate locations for charging stations and the required number of chargers to be installed, ensuring that electric vehicle drivers on highways do not encounter charging problems.
