Overview : In order to promote the use of renewable energy resources in buildings and thereby to reduce the final external energy consumption and associated GHG emissions in the buildings sector of Turkey, a “Renewable Energy Technologies Economic Analysis Tool” will be developed within the Promoting Energy Efficiency in Buildings Project.
This tool will be developed in parallel with the Article 22 of the Building Energy Performance Regulation, (dated 05.12.2008 and numbered 27075 Official Gazette) and will cover all the energy sources and technologies covered in this article, to say the least.
Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MoENR), General Directorate of Renewable Energy (YEGM) and Ministry of Environment and Urbanism (MoEU) will collaborate to start and sustain a RET Economic Analysis Tool with the below functionalities.
- Calculation of benefits from RET for buildings, based on hourly energy models and environmental data,
- Calculation of related costs and benefits,
- Comparison of possible RET implementation scenarios and base building scenarios.
The RET-EAT will serve as the guidance and calculation tool for the building design sector, promoting better energy performance, higher energy efficiency, and increased level of onsite renewable energy applications in buildings sector.
Within this framework, the overall scope of work regarding the development of this “RET Economic Analysis Tool” (RET-EAT) is split into two stages:
STAGE I: DEVELOPMENT OF THE ALGORITHM AND RELEVANT REQUIRED ANNEXES FOR THE RET-EAT SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT TENDER,
STAGE II: DEVELOPMENT OF THE SOFTWARE OF THE RET-EAT.
For Stage I, the Contractor will deliver complete tendering documents, including the detailed algorithm definitions and all additional required technical specifications and definitions, for the tender works of RET-EAT software development tender;
For Stage II, the Contractor will provide bid evaluation services to UNDP for selecting a Contractor who will develop RET-EAT software; and provide consultancy and monitoring services during the development of RET-EAT software. The Software Development Contractor will be responsible for software development works and will be identified through another tender process.
