Headline facts and figures

  • Broadly representative of Turkey
  • 3.5 million dwellings
  • 73,000 buildings (theoretical)
  • 22% of dwellings in the region
  • Energy-saving potential in stock: 25%, equivalent to 1.7% of region’s final energy demand or 2.4 MtCO2 emissions

Predominant construction and heating features

  • In situ concrete walls, flat concrete roof and concrete floor, single-glazed, metal frame windows
  • Dwelling-based gas central heating (combi-boilers), allowing installation of TRVs and replacement with condensing combi-boilers

Issues

  • Nearly all data provided by the Turkish housing ministry is about the housing stock as a whole.
  • In terms of climate, Turkey has parallels with France; it is a borderline case between a warm and a moderate climate – it even has few very cold regions – and is likely to have large simultaneous geographical and seasonal climate variability. This is likely to be reflected in a very wide variety of high-rise construction types.
