Abstract

This study aims to calculate the biomass energy potential that can be theoretically obtained from agricultural products for the Muş province between 2020-2024. In this context, calculations were made by taking into account the legumes, industrial plants, cereals, forage crops, oilseeds, and tubers grown in the region. The analyses are based on five-year data (2020–2024) obtained from the Plant Production Statistics Database of the Turkish Statistical Institute. Accordingly, the average biomass energy potentials were calculated in megawatts (MW). According to the results, the product groups with the highest biomass energy potential were grains and forage crops. When evaluated on a district basis, the Central district has the highest share (33,02%) and the Hasköy district has the lowest share (2,44%) in terms of 5-year average biomass energy potential. Considering all available biomass sources in Muş province, the estimated annual energy potential was determined to be 27.145 MW in 2020, 29.288 MW in 2021, 33.863 MW in 2022, 37.361 MW in 2023, and 40.608 MW in 2024. These findings show that Muş province has significant potential on both national and global scales in terms of sustainable and environmentally friendly biomass energy that can be produced from agricultural crops.

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Muş ili için 2020-2024 yılları arasında tarım ürünlerinden teorik olarak elde edilebilecek biyokütle enerji potansiyelinin hesaplanması amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda, bölgede yetiştirilen baklagiller, endüstriyel bitkiler, tahıllar, yem bitkileri, yağlı tohumlar ve yumru bitkiler dikkate alınarak hesaplamalar yapılmıştır. Analizler, Türkiye İstatistik Kurumu’nun Bitkisel Üretim İstatistikleri Veri Tabanı’ndan temin edilen 2020–2024 dönemine ait beş yıllık verilere dayanmaktadır. Bu doğrultuda ortalama biyokütle enerji potansiyelleri megawatt (MW) cinsinden hesaplanmıştır. Sonuçlara göre, biyokütle enerji potansiyeli en yüksek ürün grupları tahıllar ve yem bitkileri olmuştur. İlçeler bazında değerlendirildiğinde, 5 yıllık ortalama biyokütle enerji potansiyeli bakımından en yüksek paya Merkez ilçe (%33,02), en düşük paya ise Hasköy ilçesi (%2,44) sahiptir. Muş ilinde mevcut tüm biyokütle kaynakları değerlendirildiğinde, elde edilebilecek yıllık enerji potansiyelinin 2020 yılında 27.145 MW, 2021 yılında 29.288 MW, 2022 yılında 33.863 MW, 2023 yılında 37.361 MW ve 2024 yılında 40.608 MW olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Bu bulgular, Muş ilinin tarımsal ürünlerden üretilebilecek sürdürülebilir ve çevre dostu biyokütle enerjisi açısından hem ulusal hem de küresel ölçekte kayda değer bir potansiyele sahip olduğunu göstermektedir.
