WASTE MANAGEMENT IN TURKEY
OFFICIAL PROGRAM
P
WASTE MANAGEMENT AND WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT IN TURKEY The goal of this study is to analyze and assess the current situation in the waste management and waste water management market in Turkey and make an outlook with regard to future developments in these markets. Today, in Turkey, still about the half of the total population of 73.7 Mio is not served with waste disposal / recovery and waste water treatment services. Moreover, only about a quarter of the industrial waste water is discharged to receiving bodies after treatment. Turkey’s objective of an EU integration and thus shaping all of its waste management regulations and policies towards harmonisation with EU’s standards, the various strategic plans of ministries, Turkey’s economic growth forecasts, the raising awareness in the industry for an integrated waste management approach, the waste-to-energy concept, various expected population growth scenarios and many other lucrative factors, will lead to a substantial growth of both the municipal and industrial waste management and waste water treatment industry in future. Hence, based on these analyses and positive market trends, potential investment and cooperation opportunities for Swiss SMEs within these industries will be highlighted. Moreover, a comprehensive SWOT analysis and concrete recommendations for business and marketing strategies will be provided, illustrating how Swiss SMEs could enter into these lucrative industries. Thereby, the main business potentials of Swiss companies in the increasing Turkish waste management and waste water treatment industry - which, at the same time incorporate their comparative business advantages , - are their project management competence as well as the supply and technology transfer of their High-Cleantech products, processes and services. Consequently, in order to optimally make use of these lucrative Swiss-Turkish business and cooperation potentials in the waste management and waste water treatment industry, the participation in events as well as the launch of joint initiatives are essential issues.

1. Executive Summary Today, in Turkey, still about the half of the total population of 73.7 Mio does not have access to any waste disposal / recovery and waste water treatment services, thereby being exposed to threats to their health and environment. Moreover, 44% of the municipal solid waste is still dumped into open dumping sites of municipalities, therefore implying the release of the very potent greenhouse gas methane into the atmosphere and incorporating explosion risk of sites. On average, only about 24% of the industrial waste water discharged is treated. Due to Turkey’s expected economic and population growth, the absolute amount of municipal and industrial solid waste as well as municipal and industrial waste water discharged are even expected to further increase substantially in the future. Turkey’s goal of a sustainable development, giving increasing awareness and importance to environmental issues, which is additionally enhanced by Turkey’s objective of an EU accession, have resulted in giving main priority to the development of the waste management and waste water treatment industry, which constitute more than half of Turkey’s total environmental expenditures today. Since the start of the EU accession in 2005, Turkey has been defining and adapting all its regulations with regard to waste management and waste water treatment corresponding to the existing EU Directives and in line with the “EU Integrated Environmental Approximation Strategy for Turkey (2007-2023)”. In addition, several regulatory stakeholders, in particular the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization (MoEU) with its “Strategic Plan 2013-2017” being in accordance with Turkey’s EU path, have defined concrete strategies, targets and action plans for bringing the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment industry to EU standards. According to MoEU’s “Strategic Plan 2013-2017”, 61 controlled landfill sites, 550 waste bringing centers and 63 dual waste collection systems will be established until 2017. In addition, 460 waste water treatment projects will be approved, 50% of which will be paid by the state as investment incentive of the energy bills. All these projects will very likely be publicly tendered under the responsibility of Municipalities and Metropolitan municipalities and based on public-private partnership (PPP) structures. Municipalities and Metropolitan municipalities are in public charge by law and have the sole responsibility for the implementation of waste management and waste water treatment services for domestic type of waste and waste water from households, industries or commercial enterprises. However, the current implementation of waste management and waste water treatment services by municipalities and Metropolitan municipalities is far away from its optimal status. While collection and transportation of waste is done to a large extent, the great majority of solid waste in the country is still not being disposed in accordance with the laws and regulations. For that reason, municipalities and Metropolitan municipalities increasingly waive their responsibility for the entire process of municipal solid waste management (i.e., collection, transportation, separation, recycling, composting, disposal) and tend to reduce their waste management activities to only the collection and transportation of waste and transfer the responsibility for the other waste activities to the private sector by entering into PPPs in form of BOT contracts. Private companies increasingly see the lucrative business potential of integrating municipal solid waste management activities with the production of energy from waste. Today, various investment and cooperation opportunities exist in Turkey’s waste management and waste water treatment sector. While, as in the case of integrated solid waste and waste-to-energy facilities, also for the establishment of waste water treatment facilities also BOT contracts are common, for their operation and their operation and maintenance, mainly outsourcing or PFI contracts are applied. Concession contracts between public institutions and private companies are primarily implemented through investments in waste-to-energy plants for the rental of land and receipt of electricity generation licenses from the Turkish Energy Market Regulatory Authority. In addition to project investments of relatively larger sizes, JV / partnerships, increasingly financed by a combination of the entrepreneurs’ own equity and cleantech focused international loans, such as TurSEFF, MidSEFF or CTF, are increasingly found in initiatives for investments in waste-to-energy facilities of relative smaller sizes, where new technologies such as gasification / pyrolysis technologies are targeted to be applied.
4
Private investors of waste-to-energy facilities receive the return for their investment mainly through the
sales of electricity at the guaranteed feed-in-tariff of 13.3 US$ct / kWh to the National Grid, sales of the resulting heat to neighbored shopping malls, schools, universities, governmental institutions, sites etc., sales of the recycled waste won back as raw material and non-recycled waste used as fuel by companies from the heavy industry and sales of the generated carbon credits in the global carbon market.
Dependent on the applied waste-to-energy technology, also other by-products such as pyrolytic oil, biochar etc. could be produced, which could be sold in their respective markets, as additional income streams. The Turkish market can be fragmented into the main two sub markets integrated solid waste management (including waste-toenergy units) and waste water treatment, where the market share of companies strongly depends from the conducting business activities (i.e. won tenders) such as supply, service or construction contracts. Within the waste management industry, also other sub markets than integrated solid waste management are incorporating a promising business potential. Today, there exist only two incineration plants, five composting plants and only about 50% of the packaging waste recycled. However, although the modern waste hierarchy “1. Prevention, 2. Preparing for re-use, 3. Recycling, 4. Other recovery, 5. Disposal” is increasingly applied in EU, Turkey still quite away from its implementation, highlighting the business and innovation potential in the various parts of the supply chain. Within the waste water treatment industry, the application of advanced waste water treatment methods is facing an increase for municipal waste water, but today they are hardly ever applied for industrial waste water. Biofuel production from waste via gasification-Fischer Tropsch (second generation) is a virgin subject for Turkey and, based on the favourable EU laws and regulations, representing a lucrative market niche for future. Hence, the future developments go clearly towards both an integrated waste management-waste-to-energy approach and an integrated waste water treatment-waste-to-energy approach, through the application of various waste-to-energy technologies depending on the waste type and components. The use of the waste-to-energy potential from agriculture residues, manure, poultry litter or wood waste is also emerging as a future trend. In 2010, the expenditures for waste and waste water treatment services amounted to 4. 2 bn TL and 2.2 bn TL, respectively. Based on the expected population growth scenarios and thus expected increase in both the future amount of municipal waste and municipal waste water, these expenditures are estimated to further increase to a yearly amount of 6.5-12.5 bn TL and 4.08.9 bn TL for the period 2013-2023. Concerning the cost comparison o various waste-to-energy technologies in Turkey, CAPEX are the highest for incineration, and the lowest for landfill. Since the pyrolysis, gasification, pyrogasification and other thermo-chemical methods other than incineration are new technologies (i.e., not state-of-the art or proven technologies) and still in the development phase in Turkey and therefore are facing relative high technology and implementation risk, the variation in CAPEX is the highest among all technologies. In fact, there are only few initiatives, especially, in the agricultural waste-to-energy sector, where private investors are still looking for, testing and implementing several forms and combinations of pyrolysis / gasification methods. In contrast to the CAPEX figure, after landfill, which, as compared to other technologies, has a very low OPEX, the OPEX for incineration is lower than those for anaerobic digestion (AD) and pyrolysis / gasification. The OPEX for the latter two technologies are nearly in the same range. However, to make a more detailed study of the cost and supply structure of materials, machinery and equipment and other investment and O&M costs within the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment industry, each sub-market should be separately considered and analyzed by a more comprehensive due diligence report. There are several financing sources available for investments in the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment industry such as General Budget of the Central Administration, Budget of Local Authorities, loans provided by international financial institutions and cleantech-oriented funds, grants provided by EU, international grant-type R&D funding programs such as Eureka, Eurostars or FP7, investments from PPPs or private investments such as equity funds.

The SWOT analysis for Swiss firms shows that their high supply, innovation, R&D and technology transfer potential of HighCleantech products, their high quality standards and strong financial structure are considered as their main strengths, whereas their high production costs, difficulty in being able to response to technical issues in a short time interval as well as their nonEU status are regarded as their main weaknesses. Main opportunities are the favourable existing and future regulatory drivers / framework and market conditions, Turkey’s early ages in terms of waste management and waste water treatment investments and initiatives, the possibility of financial G2G agreements and Turkish companies’ positive attitude towards the collaboration with Swiss companies. Main threats involve the Turkish Public Procurement Law allowing the tendering authorities to restrict bidding of foreign companies or applying up to 15% of price advantage in the favour of domestic tenderers or products and potential G2G agreement proposals from other countries that may restrict bidding of Swiss companies. If Swiss companies want to enter the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment market and make use of Turkey’s huge market potential and dynamics by establishing new partnerships, business networks, solutions and marketing and sales channels in Turkey, where “energy” and “environment” and their related sub-sectors and (sub-) technology areas will always be on policy’s main strategic agenda, the resulting benefits arising from any project type, business case and / or R&D initiative could highly exceed its occurring costs. For that purpose, as a first important business step, Swiss companies can make use of event marketing opportunities by participation in forthcoming events in Turkey with regard to waste management and waste water treatment to show presence and establish business contacts, which could result in lucrative business cooperation and investment opportunities.

2. Turkey and its Key Economic Indicators Growth within a decade Within the past ten years, Turkey has gained a well-deserved reputation as a major developing country; a potential candidate for the BRICS block, a member of the MINT1emerging economies group and an economically esteemed member of many regional and international organizations such as the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD), the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the Black Sea Economic Cooperation Business Council. This economic leap has been achieved partly through the structural reforms that have transformed the financial sector as a whole and Central Bank in particular, and partly due to the stable political environment and financial discipline maintained by the single party regime. Throughout the transformation period following the financial crisis in 2001, Turkey has managed to attain an average annual growth pace of 5.2%, despite the ongoing financial crisis in its largest trade partner, the Euro Zone. The gradual decline in the growth rate in year 2009 was met with remarkable growth figures of 9.2% and 8.5% in years 2010 and 2011 respectively, making Turkey the 16th largest economy in the world (See Figure 2.1).

In line with the acceleration in economic growth, nominal GDP has increased more than threefold in the 2002-2012 period. This was accompanied by an equivalent increase in the nominal GDP per capita and a 85.9% increase in the GDP per capita in US$ PPP terms. The Medium Term Plan, which represents the common prediction of the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey, the Undersectretariat of Treasury, the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Development, anticipates a sustainable growth in these figures in the upcoming years (See Figure 2.2). Within the period under consideration, the unemployment rate stagnated at around 9.5%, a rate which was considered to be high, but the figure remained far below the EU average (12.10% in June of 2013, Eurostat (2013)). Turkey has also maintained moderate EU-Defined Budget Deficit/GDP and EU-Defined Government Debt/GDP ratios, performing better than a number of developed and developing countries. The current account deficit, the major vulnerability of the Turkish economy, has remained rather high mainly due to the unprecedented increase in the oil price. However, this was successfully met by an increase in the scale and scope of exports and a rise in the capital inflow.

Following the aggressive growth rates in 2010 and 2011, 2012 was a year of rebalancing for the Turkish economy. The drastic increase in the current account deficit was mitigated and the saving rates reached more sustainable levels. From the second half of the year 2013 onwards, speculations of a potential cut in Quantitative Easing (QE) has led to significant capital outflows from the emerging markets and overshadowed the global growth prospects. Even so, international organizations, namely OECD, IMF, World Bank and the United Nations, suggest optimistic growth figures for the Turkish economy (See Table 2.2).

Real sector Figure 2.3 displays the distribution of subsectors within the Turkish economy. Traditional sectors of food and textile comprise almost 20% of the real economy, followed by the minerals, metals and chemical industry. Vehicles constitute an important part of production as well as exports; “Article 87: Vehicle other than railway or tramway rolling, stock, parts thereof” alone amounting to 9.9% of the total exports.4 The ongoing effort towards increasing the value added in production, expanding R&D base and extending funding schemes to high-tech projects marks the desire of the government to cooperate with the private sector in a mutually beneficial way, and these policies have potential to transform the real economy in the medium run.

As for the region-specific distribution of exports, the EU stands as Turkey’s largest trading partner. Figure 2.4 and Figure 2.5 display that both exports to and imports from the EU have gradually increased over time. In 2009, there was a drastic decline in trade with the EU due to the recession that spread out the region through fiscal imbalances. Figures suggest that both 4Article
87 has beenthe largest exportitem since 2004. However, in 2012 it was superseded by Article 71: Gold and precious metals. The increase in this item had been rather unprecedented and unstable. Hence, Article 87 is considered as the major export article.

exports and imports have moderately recovered to their pre-crisis levels by 2012. Near and Middle East countries are the second largest trading partner of Turkey.

Financial Sector The 2001 crisis shed light on the vulnerabilities of the Turkish financial system. After a series of IMF-led structural reforms, the capital adequacy ratio and the liquidity and reserve requirements of the commercial banks had been increased. The close inspection and regular monitoring provided by the CBRT, Capital Markets Board (SPK) and Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency (BDDK) has ensured a safer financial sector, exemplified by a number of indicators such as the assets to equities ratio, net profit/loss and the ratio of liquid assets (See Table 2.3).

Figure 2.5 displays another central indicator of a stable and safe financial environment, namely the Credit Default Swaps (CDS) premiums for a number of developed and developing countries. Figures suggest that Turkey performs better than the indebted EU countries and some of the major developing economies. The Financial Skills Index published by IMD World Competitiveness Yearbook executive survey indicates that Turkey encompasses higher financial expertise compared to major emerging economies, with an index remaining slightly below the United Kingdom (See Figure 2.6). As demonstrated by Figure 2.7, bureaucratic and financial environment is facilitative for start-ups, the average number of days to start a new business being as low as 6 days.

3. Sector Analysis – Waste Management 3.1. KEY SECTORS The waste management sector in Turkey can be mainly divided into the key sectors Municipal Solid Waste and Industrial Solid Waste. The waste water treatment sector can be mainly divided into the key sectors Municipal Waste water and Industrial Waste water. The following sections contain analyses of these key sectors.
3.2. POLICY AND REGULATION WITHIN THE WASTE MANAGEMENT INDUSTRY In Turkey, Primary Legislation consisting of laws is constituted in the Turkish Parliament and executed by the Turkish Government, whereas the Secondary Legislation consisting of regulations, communiqués and circulars are constituted and executed by the corresponding Ministry in charge. The Secondary Legislation on waste management and waste water treatment is defined and executed by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization (MoEU). It is important to emphasize that the Secondary Legislation is mainly adapted to corresponding EU Directives and is in line with the “EU Integrated Environmental Approximation Strategy for Turkey (2007-2023)” (see Section 4.2). The Secondary Legislation on renewable energy, which the waste-to-energy production is part of, is set by the Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EMRA) (see Section 4.1 and 4.2). The main laws, regulations, communiqués and circulars with regard to waste management, waste water treatment and renewable energy are listed below.
3.2.1. Legal Regulation Law on Environment No. 2872 The Law on Environment No. 2872 is the central existing law in Turkey where all activities, actions and services with regard to the environment are legally defined. In that sense, according to Article 8: “…It is forbidden to release all sorts of waste and residues directly or indirectly into receiving environment, storing them or being engaged in a similar activity…”5 Moreover, according to Article 29: “…Activities related with the prevention and elimination of environmental pollution will benefit from incentive measures. For that purpose, at the beginning of each year new principles could be set in addition to the existing incentive system by the Undersecretariat of Treasury, based on the opinion of the Ministry…” Renewable Energy Law No. 5346 The Renewable Energy Law No. 5346 is the central law for the use of renewable energy sources for electricity generation, where all the legally binding clauses and guaranteed feed-in tariffs for each source of renewable energy are defined. With this regard, the generation of biogas from all sorts of waste, the production of energy and its sales to the National Grid is regulated in this law (see Section 4.2).6 Municipality Law No. 5393 Articles 14 and 15 of the Municipality Law No. 5393 state that “…municipalities are responsible for the provision of all services concerning the collection, transport, separation, recycling, disposal and storage of solid waste…as well as for the removal of waste water and rain water, establishment of necessary waste water treatment facilities or having them established, and for their operation or having them operated…”7 Metropolitan Municipality Law No. 5216 Article 7 of the Metropolitan Municipality Law No. 5216 states that “…Metropolitan municipalities are responsible for designing of the Metropolitan solid waste management plan, ensuring its design; except for the collection at source and the 5

transportation of solid waste to the transfer facility, providing services for the recycling, storage and disposal of solid waste and excavation residues, establishing or having established facilities for these purposes, operating or having them operated…” 8 Public Procurement Law No. 4734 The Public Procurement Law No. 4734 has the objective “…to set to establish the principles and procedures to be applied in any procurement held by public authorities and institutions governed by public law or under public control or using public funds…the provisions of this Law shall apply to procurement of goods, services or works the costs of which are paid from any resources at the disposal of the contracting authorities…”9 Therefore, all rules and requirements for public tenders and procurement for waste management and waste water treatment projects are constituted in this law. Tables 3.1-3.3, contains a list of the main regulations, communiqués and circulars with regard to waste management, waste water treatment and renewable energy, which is also of relevance for biogas-producing and electricity generating waste management and waste water treatment facilities.

3.3. CURRENT SITUATION AND FUTURE OUTLOOK FOR THE WASTE MANAGEMENT MARKET The current status of Turkey’s waste industry shows that Primary and Secondary Legislation with regard to waste management and waste water treatment has been clearly set and the underlying regulations have been mainly adopted from the existing EU environmental directives (see Section 3.2. and Section 4.2.). Based on them, a waste management and waste water treatment market with various regulatory stakeholders (see Section 4.1.) and key market players (see Section 5.2.) have been established, resulting in various conducted public tenders for supply, service and construction (see Section 5.2.), project structures (See Section 6.3.), public-public partnerships and investment and cooperation forms in the private sector (see Section 3.5.). However, the current implementation of waste management and waste water treatment services by municipalities and Metropolitan municipalities has by far not reached its optimal status. While collection and transportation of waste is done at great extent, the great majority of solid waste in the country is still not being disposed in accordance with the laws and regulations.55 Also, the industrial pollution is still not satisfactorily well managed and in line with the regulatory requirements (see Section 4.2.). While on the way, there are still some important governmental actions to do in order to guarantee the full adaption and implementation of the waste regulations to EU standards. That is, in order to ensure effective implementation, monitoring and auditing of the current legislation, there is a need for strengthening the institutional structure and capacity building. Especially, due to the repeated implementation of the audit, permission and sanction processes by different institutions in the country a healthy environment management plan cannot be applied to the environment. In Turkey, aspects such as permission, monitoring, auditing, sanctioning and reporting are still unsatisfactory and have a non-integrated structure.56 Optimizing the administrative process and adaption process of the existing regulations to EU directives in the near future, together with Turkey’s clearly defined strategies, targets and action plans with regard to waste management and waste water treatment, will further stimulate Turkey’s waste management industry in future (see Section 4.2.). Turkey’s municipal waste per capita is around 407 kg / per year and municipal waste water per capita 182 litres / day (see Subsection 3.3.1.), which have been more or less constant for the last few years (see Subsection 3.3.1.). Due to Turkey’s various population growth scenarios of (see Section 5.1.), both the amount of waste and waste water in total is expected to further increase, implying a future growth of the waste industry in Turkey. 3.3.1. Waste Management in Turkey To depict the current situation, development and trend in the waste management and waste water treatment industry, the following part contains analysis, graphs and tables, based on historical TUKRKSTAT57 (Turkish statistical institute) data for

Although the population rate receiving waste disposal and recovery facilities in total population has increased from 4% in 1994 to 47% in 2010, the majority of the municipal population still does not receive municipal waste disposal and recovery services.
18
With regard to Figure 3.2, the rate of municipal population served by waste water treatment plants in total population increased from 10% in 1994 to 52% in 2010. That is, still a half of the municipal population does not obtain municipal waste water treatment services.

As it can be seen in Figure 3.3, nearly the whole population of 61.6 Mio living in municipalities is covered by “standard” waste services. However, these only cover the collection, separation and transportation of municipal solid waste and do not include the waste disposal and recovery activities, which show a very different picture (see part (ii) below). According to Figure 3.4, in 2010, about 62% of the municipal population was served with waste water treatment plants. This rate increased from 13% in 1994, thereby implying a substantial growth rate between the years 1994-2010. According to the “Strategic Plan 2013-2017” of MoEU, the actual rate of municipal population receiving waste water treatment services is 72%. It should be noted that, between the years 1994 and 2010, Turkey’s total population size increased from 62.9 Mio to 73.7 Mio, implying an increase of 17%, whereas the size of municipal population increased from 47.6 Mio to 61.6 Mio, thereby incorporating a percentage growth of even 29%.

According to Figure 3.5, in 1994, the number of municipalities receiving waste services was 1’985 (72.4%) out of 2’740, and the number of municipalities receiving waste water treatment services was only 71 (2.6%). Today, the corresponding numbers are 2’879 (97.6%) for waste services and still only 438 (14.8%) for waste water treatment services. In relative terms, since in 1994, there were very few waste water treatment plants existing at that time, they experienced a higher growth within the period 1994-2010. The trend is increasing. Figures 3.6-3.7 illustrate the municipal waste per capita and municipal waste water discharged per capita, respectively.

Between the years 1994 and 2010, the average amount of waste per capita was 1.30 kg / day, deviating between 1.10-151 kg / day. In the last few years, municipal waste per capita has been slightly decreasing to 1.14 kg / day. The average amount of municipal waste water discharged per capita was 156 litres / day, with an increasing trend. This amount rose from 126 kg / capita-day in 1994 to 182 kg / capita-day in 2010, implying a 44% growth between that period.

According to Figure 3.8, Turkey with a per capita average of 407 kg / year of generated municipal waste, is in the lower half of the list of European countries and is below the EU 27 average of 502 kg / year. Switzerland, after Southern Cyprus, takes the second place with the highest per capita municipal waste of 707 kg / year in Europe. Therefore, it annually generates about 75% more municipal waste per capita than Turkey.

As Figure 3.9 shows, in 1994, only 2 controlled landfills, 2 composting plants and 1 incineration plant were existent. In 2010, the number of controlled landfills increased to 52, whereas presently still only 5 composting and 2 incineration plants exist in Turkey. Hence, whereas the number of controlled landfill sites and, therefore their importance has increased, composting and incineration potential of municipal waste is still mainly unused. According to the “Strategic Plan 2013-2017� of MoEU, the actual number of controlled landfill sites is 69. Figure 3.10 shows the waste disposal amounts by disposal methods.

Burial Burning in an open area Waste delivered to controlled landfill site Municipality's dumping site
In 1994, by far the main disposal method for municipal waste was open dumping of waste, nearly without the existence of any composting of waste or other waste recovery methods. Therefore, nearly the whole municipal waste resulted in conventional waste management methods such as “wild” storage and uncontrolled landfill in open dumping sites. However, over time, especially, the Metropolitan dumping sites disappeared in favor of controlled landfill sites, which today make up 54% and, together with municipality’s dumping sites with a share of 35%, in total 89% of the waste disposal methods in Turkey. Therefore, open dumping of municipal waste at Metropolitan municipalities’ and municipalities’ dumping sites with a total share of 42% implies that nearly the half of the municipal waste is still disposed according unconventional methods. Tables 3.4-3.6 contain the amount of waste brought to disposal and recovery facilities (i.e., controlled landfills, incineration plants and composting plants) by type and origin for the year 2010.

In Turkey, with a total share of 99.3%, the amount of waste brought to all disposal and recovery facilities is nonhazardous waste. However, although only low in relative amounts as compared to total waste, still more than 50 million tons or the majority of hazardous waste from municipalities, mainly coming from health and other industries, are brought to controlled landfills and composting plants, instead of fully eliminating it by incineration, and thereby threatening public’s health and the environment. Waste from municipalities considering all disposal and recovery methods makes in total 93.9%, with by far the major share in controlled landfills. Some municipal waste is also brought to composting plants. Nonhazardous municipal waste brought to controlled landfills is mainly composed of household and similar wastes (96.6%), waste water treatment sludge (1.3%) and mixed and undifferentiated wastes (1.0%). Nonhazardous municipal waste brought to incineration plants mainly consists of chemical wastes (41.9%), medical wastes (19.8%), mixed and undifferentiated wastes (16.9%) and waste oils (13.0%). Nonhazardous municipal waste brought to composting plants is fully composed of household and similar wastes (93.3%), manure (3.5%) and vegetal wastes of food preparation and products and green wastes (3.2%). Whereas the term “Composting” refers to the process of decomposing organic (i.e., bio-degradable) waste, such as food or garden waste, as fertilizer for soil amendment and contributing to organic farming practices, the term “Recycling” stands for a process of changing inorganic (i.e., non-biodegradable) waste, such as paper, metal, glass, plastic, textiles and electronics, into new products to prevent waste which may be used as (raw) materials. According to MoEU, the number of licensed collection, separation and recycling plants has increased from 28 in 1994 to 514 in 2010, such that 50% of packaging waste is recycled.58

According to Figure 3.11, in 2010, the total amount of waste water discharge d in Turkey was 3.6 bn. m3, having increased from 1.5 bn. bn. m3 in 1994. Hence, the total amount of waste water discharge d in Turkey more than doubled within that period, implying a clearly increasing trend. The municipal waste water is essentially discharged either to rivers or to the sea. Today, the main types of waste water treatment applied in the waste industry, shortly described, are:
Physical waste water treatment incorporates the removal of substances by the use of naturally occurring forces, such as gravity and electrical attraction are removed or their separation by the use of physical barriers. In general, the applied mechanisms in physical treatment do not result in changes in the chemical structure of the target substances. In some cases, physical state is changed, as in vaporization, and often dispersed substances are caused to agglomerate, as happens during filtration. Chemical waste water treatment refers to an intricate industrial process which is employed to remove harmful substances and bacteria from raw sewage and rainwater runoff. Thereby, used, dirty water is filtered so that it can be recycled back into natural and artificial water sources. Numerous chemicals are used in different phases of the filtration process to separate out solids, kill bacteria and parasites, and remove dangerous toxins. Chemical compounds of ferric chloride, alum, ozone, chlorine, and lime help to purify even the most polluted concentrations of sewage. Biological waste water treatment is the use of microorganisms in the processing and cleansing of waste water. Many microorganisms are able to metabolize a variety of organic and inorganic substances that are present in waste water. Biological waste water treatment takes advantage of this property and supports it with various nutrients and aerators. The waste water can come from a variety of sources, including factories, cities, or even small residential areas and usually contains solid biomasses, various objects, microorganisms, and other contaminants. The waste water undergoes multiple treatments to remove these contaminants and neutralize any hazardous residuals. Advanced waste water treatment refers to any treatment of sewage that goes beyond or biological water treatment stage and includes the removal of nutrients, such as phosphorus and nitrogen and a high percentage of suspended solids.
Figures 3.12-3.13 illustrate the development of the number of municipal waste water treatment plants and the corresponding amount of municipal waste water treated by waste water treatment method, respectively, for the years 1994-2010.

As can be seen in Figure 3.12, the amount of waste water treatment plants in Turkey substantially increased from 41 in 1994 to 326 in 2010. Out of these 326 waste water treatment plants, today, 199 apply the biological treatment method (61%), 53 the advanced treatment method (16%), 39 the physical (12%) and 35 (11%) the natural treatment method. With regard to Figure 3.13, the amount and rate of municipal waste water treated substantially increased between the years 1994-2010. Whereas in 1994, municipal waste water was thus just discharged without any treatment to receiving bodies, as illustrated in Figure 3.11, today about 76% of municipal waste water discharged is treated. Between the years 2001-2010, the application of the advanced waste water treatment method faced a significant absolute and relative growth. Today, with a share of 37.9%, it is the major treatment method applied for municipal waste water, followed by the biological treatment method with a share of 34.3%.

According to Table 3.7, today, total and hazardous wastes from mining activities such as overburden and tailings wastes constitute by far the largest share of the total waste generation. Whereas the waste generated by thermal power plants, which was twice as much as the waste generated by manufacturing industry establishments in 2008, significantly decreased from 2008 to 2010, waste generated by the manufacturing industry establishments slightly increased within that period. However, the absolute and relative amount of their hazardous waste decreased. The number of recycling plants of hazardous waste has increased from 18 to 201.59

The total industrial waste generated in 2010, amounting to 13.7 Mio tons was in average 22% less than for the period 200-2004. About 75% of the industrial waste is ultimately disposed with waste disposal methods such as using the industrial waste as filling material (44% of ultimately disposed waste), storing it within the establishment (25%), dumping it into a dumping site (15%), putting it into a controlled landfill site (13%) or co-incinerating / incinerating it (3%). Nearly no industrial waste is recovered or reused within the facility. Figure 3.15: Amount of hazardous waste generated by the manufacturing industry (1000 tonnes/year), 2000-2010

As can be seen from Figure 3.16, the thermal power plants with a share of 45.8% discharge the most waste water among all the sectors in Turkey, followed by municipalities with a share of 38.5%. Together, they make about 85% of Turkey’s total waste water discharge.

Figures 3.17-3.18 illustrate the amount of industrial waste water discharged without and after treatment by receiving bodies, respectively, for the period 2000-2010. The amount of industrial waste water shows an increasing trend. In 2010, it was 1.3 bn m3, nearly a doubling as compared to 2004. Whereas the absolute amount of waste water discharged after treatment has remained nearly the same, the relative amount has substantially decreased from 30% in 2000 to 19% in 2010. Or, in other words, still 80% of the industrial waste water in Turkey is still untreated. About 63% of the waste water discharged goes into the sea and 20% into rivers, making together the essentail receiving bodies of waste water discharged.

Figures 3.19-3.20 show the number of industrial waste water treatment plants and the amount of industrial waste water treated by waste water treatment method, respectively, for the years 2000-2010. The number of industrial waste water treatment plants doubled within that period, increasing from 926 in 2000 to 1825 in 2010. About 60% of waste water treatment plants apply the biological treatment method, 35% the physical/chemical and 5% the advanced treatment method. Although the number of waste water treatment plants applying the advanced method with 22 was very low in 2000, despite its increased number to 80 in 2010 and incorporation of an increasing trend, this waste water treatment method is still mainly unused in Turkey. The absolute amount of waste water treated with the physical/chemical method is decreasing in favor of the advanced and biological method, which has a share of 70% on total industrial waste water treated.
31
(vi) Marine pollution According to MoEU, the number of marine pollution measurement stations has increased to 208.60 The number of Blue Flag beaches and marina has increased from 271 in 2003 to 374 in 2012.61 At ports, 221 facilities have started to provide waste reception services. In order to prevent sea pollution, today, waste is collected on the coasts with sea cleaners. Nevertheless, Turkey’s Mediterranean and Aegean coastline is still under severe pressure from extensive industrial and domestic waste water discharges and pollution from tanker traffic and refineries.
Future Outlook Based on the current situation, the following development and trends with regard to the waste management and waste water treatment industry in Turkey can be highlighted:
Only about 50% of Turkey’s population receives waste recovery / disposal and waste management services. Whereas the rate for recovery / disposal services was nearly zero in 1994, it was about 10% for waste water treatment services. This implies a further substantial increase in the rate of population receiving both service types in the next few years. Turkey has a population size of 73.7 Mio and faced a population growth of 17% between 1998 and 2010. Due to the essential population growth scenarios of Turkey until 2023 (see Section 5.1.), the absolute amount of municipal waste and waste water is expected to substantially increase. 44% of the waste is still dumped into open dumping sites of Metropolitan municipalities and municipalities, therefore implying the release of the very potent greenhouse gas methane into the atmosphere and incorporating explosion risk of sites. Out of 2’950 municipalities, 2’879 municipalities receive “standard” (i.e., collection, separation and transportation) waste services and only 438 municipalities receive waste water treatment services. As compared to EU countries, where integrated waste management approaches including waste disposal are implemented as well as more than the majority of municipalities are served with waste water treatment services, these numbers for Turkey are still too low. There are only 69 controlled landfill sites. There exist only 2 incineration plants. More than 50’000 tons of hazardous waste are still not eliminated by incineration. There exist only 5 composting plants. Only about 50% of the packaging waste is recycled, which was nearly zero in 1994, therefore implying an increasing trend. The amount of waste water per capita is increasing. Industrial waste is hardly ever used for co-incineration / incineration purposes. Nor it is recovered or reused within the facility. This implies a huge waste-to-energy as well as recycling or reuse potential of their waste for industrial companies. The amount of industrial waste water has nearly doubled between 2004 and 2010. The trend is increasing. Only in average 24% of the industrial waste water is discharged after treatment, implying a huge development and increase potential. Whereas the advanced waste water treatment method in Turkey shows a substantial increasing trend, it is hardly ever applied for industrial waste water. Thermal power plants are the largest discharger of waste water. Due to the expected substantial growth in the energy sector in the next few years, the amount of waste water from thermal power plants is expected to further increase. Strong improvement and extension potential in marine control.
The current situation and trends, together with Turkey’s objective of an EU integration, the various strategic plans of ministries (see Section 4.2.), Turkey’s objective of the establishment of an integrated waste management approach for guaranteeing sustainable development and other regulatory drivers, clearly reveals that both the municipal and industrial waste management and waste water treatment industry will face substantial growth in future.

3.3.2. Outlook for potential changes within the waste management industry More and more companies use the energy potential from solid waste and sludge from waste water by applying several waste-toenergy technologies to generate additional revenues from the use of the produced heat and electricity for internal purposes, selling the produced electricity to the National Grid at a guaranteed feed-in tariff for renewable energy (see Section 4.2.) or selling the produced heat to third parties such as shopping malls, hotels, (governmental) buildings, schools etc. This business motivation is very likely to further increase the awareness for market participants and regulatory stakeholders for an integrated waste management approach, by giving an increasing importance to waste disposal, recovery and recycling services. Or, in other words, due to the economic value of solid waste and sludge from waste water as a renewable energy source, on the one hand, open dumping of wastes by Metropolitan municipalities and municipalities tends to decrease, and on the other hand, the “standard� waste services including the collection, transportation and separation of waste will go towards an integration of them with disposal, recovery and recycling waste.
33
3.3.2.1. Waste as a means of extending the waste-to-energy chain Figure 3.21 contains a waste-to-energy map from the waste available in Turkey. The red boxes incorporate the waste types, technologies and methods with which heat and power production is possible. Figure 3.21: Waste-to-energy map in Turkey
Hence, depending on the technology and method used, the energy production from municipal and industrial solid waste as well as from municipal and industrial waste water is possible. Thereby, it is relevant that, as a first step, recyclable material is removed, and that then energy is recovered from what remains, i.e., from the residual waste. The main waste-to-energy production technologies are:   
Incineration, Pyrolysis and gasification, Anaerobic digestion.
In the following subsections, the main waste-to-energy technologies will be shortly highlighted. 3.3.2.1.1. RDF production Through a mechanical/thermal treatment process, refuse-derived fuel (RDF) is produced by shredding and dehydrating municipal and industrial solid waste. Hereby, non-combustible materials such as metals and glass are sorted out such that mainly combustible materials such as bio-degradable waste and plastics, as energy-producing components, remain. RDF can either be burned in boilers or gasified.
34
3.3.2.1.2. Waste incineration Waste incineration refers to the process where the residual waste is burned at 850 °C and the energy is recovered as electricity or heat. Waste incineration plants incorporate a boiler to capture and convert the produced heat into electricity and steam. These are equipped with extensive air pollution control systems which clean the combustion gases in order to comply with regulatory emission limits before they are emitted to atmosphere through a chimney. Typical fuel types are municipal solid waste, commercial and industrial waste as well as RDF (see subsection 3.3.2.1.1.). Outputs from incineration are heat and / or electricity, bottom ash and fly ash. 3.3.2.1.3. Other waste-to-energy concepts Pyrolysis and gasification Pyrolysis and gasification plants thermally treat (i.e., heat) fuels with little or no oxygen in order to produce “syngas” which can be used to generate energy through combustion. These are typically smaller and more flexible than incineration plants. Typical fuel types are municipal solid waste, commercial and industrial waste as well as RDF (see subsection 3.3.2.1.1.). Outputs from incineration are heat and / or electricity, produced “biomethane” from purified syngas, pyrolysis oils as potential fuel engines, feedstocks for the chemical industry, bottom ash, char or slag and, dependent on the plant, fly ash. Anaerobic digestion Anaerobic digestion or biogas plants operate at low temperature, allowing microorganisms under oxygen-free conditions to convert organic (i.e., biodegradable) waste into biogas, which is mixture of carbon dioxide and methane which can be combusted to produce heat and electricity, converted to biomethane or digestate , a material which can be used as a useful fertiliser / soil conditioner on agricultural land instead of chemical fertilizers. Biogas plants are typically smaller than the incineration or pyrolysis / gasification plants. A biogas plant is most suitable for wet organic wastes, such as food waste, sewage sludge, some forms of industrial and commercial waste, e.g. abattoir waste, manure, agricultural residues or energy crops. The composition of biogas varies depending on the origin of the anaerobic digestion process. Landfill gas (LFG) typically has methane concentrations around 50%, whereas typical composition of biogas contains 55-75% of methane. LFG capture Whereas for both the degradation of solid waste by microorganisms by the existence of anaerobic conditions is and thus the production of biogas is true, the main difference between LFG capture systems and other forms of anaerobic digestion is that the landfill itself is effectively the digester, such that no tanks are separately constructed for this purpose. However, the generation plant used to extract the gas is broadly similar to that employed for other forms of anaerobic digestion. LFG is then burned to produce heat and / or electricity. Generation of carbon credits from CO2 emission reduction in waste-to-energy projects If energy is produced from 100% organic waste (i.e., biogas / biomass), the potent greenhouse gas methane with a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 21 is captured, used for energy production and thus eliminated. According to the Kyoto Protocol and its mechanisms (mandatory) and voluntary carbon market framework, for each reduced CO2 emission equivalent, the energy producer from organic waste can additionally generate carbon credits (i.e., emission certificates) and sell to the market which consists of buyers in compliance who have to offset their CO2 emissions by law or buyers who voluntarily offset their CO2 emissions for image / PR, social responsibility, competitive advantages or other purposes. The generation of carbon credits is considered as a sub-project within a waste-to-energy project, incorporating separate project cycle, management and regulatory approval issues. As result, by additional generation of carbon credits, improves the business cases and increases the return on investments for waste management and waste water treatment projects in average by 2-4%.
35
3.3.2.1.4. Comparison and general attractiveness of waste-to-energy chain elements The various within waste-to-energy elements differ from each other in the sense that they use different technologies, based on the composition and nature of waste. Main applicable technologies are bio-chemical treatment methods such as the anaerobic digestion and fermentation as a subfrom of anaerobic fermentation, and thermo-chemical treatment methods such as the incineration, gasification and pyrolysis. Whereas the bio-chemical methods use wet organic (biodegradable) waste such as food waste, garden / green waste, sewerage sludge, manure etc., thermo-chemical methods use rather dry waste types. These could of only organic nature such as chicken manure, agricultural residues, or other organic municipal, commercial and industrial solid wastes, or both organic and nonorganic nature together in the form of RDF such as plastics, biodegradable waste or other combustible components. Whereas the business motivation for their implementation strongly depends on the characteristics of waste and regional / geographic factors and weather / climate conditions additionally influencing them, the market attractiveness is generally the same positive for all technology types. Following essential factors illustrate this joint attractiveness:
Excess demand for municipal / industrial waste management services and municipal / industrial waste water treatment services, results in a relatively low rivalry among suppliers and relatively low pressure for substitution products and services, Increasing future need for municipal / industrial waste management services and municipal / industrial waste water treatment services, Expected population and industry growth scenarios, Positive regulatory-legal framework, strategic orientation and actions in these industries such as the increasing number of tenders service, supply and construction (see Section 5.2.), Mainly all the technology components, machinery and equipment and project management services / advisory services within the supply chain comes (i.e., are imported) from abroad, If additionally energy from waste is produced and carbon credits from emission reduction achieved, the business cases and return on investments even improves, relatively taking the cost and pricing pressure from the waste-toenergy chain elements to be implemented (see Subsection 3.3.2.1.3.).
Both the capital expenditures (CAPEX) and Operational expenditures (OPEX) for the incineration technology are relatively highest among the technologies. However, incineration plants can take over and process much more waste than the other technologies. Therefore, the evaluation for suitability and application of one of the above technologies is strongly dependent on the type and composition of waste available and need a more detailed analysis regarding these. Some CAPEX and OPEX numbers for various technologies are listed in Section 5.3. 3.3.3. Key issues within the waste management market Summarized, the key issues within the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment industry are:
36
Despite of improvement and positive trends in the last few years, still inadequate municipal / industrial solid waste and municipal / industrial waste water treatment, which threatens public health, Millions of people are still not served with any waste disposal / recovery and waste water treatment services, More than 75% of the industrial waste water, often containing heavy metals such as mercury, lead, chromium and zinc, is discharged into rivers and coastal waters without any treatment, Hundreds of municipalities do not have proper waste disposal / recovery and waste water treatment facilities, Only about 50% of the packaging waste is recycled and there exists only 5 composting plants, such that Turkey is far away from the (optimal) implementation of modern waste hierarchy “1. Prevention, 2. Preparing for re-use, 3. Recycling, 4. Other recovery, 5. Disposal”. More than 50’000 tons of hazardous waste from municipalities are still not eliminated by incineration. Turkey’s Mediterranean and Aegean coastline still faces not optimal marine pollution control.
3.4. COMPETITION ANALYSIS 3.4.1. Key drivers for competitive advantage in the Turkish market Key drivers for competitive advantage for Swiss companies on the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment market are:
Existence, development and construction of High Cleantech products, services and processes, Relative high competition in the home market for High Cleantech products, services and processes, implies a continuous improvement, development and extension of them, maintaining their permanent high quality standards, High innovation, R&D and technology transfer potential, Existence of advanced and innovative waste management and waste water treatment methods, Relative strong project design and management skills, High quality label of Switzerland, Existence of dynamic product lines, rather than a single product,
A more detailed SWOT analysis including the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats for Swiss companies in the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment industry is conducted in Section 6.5.
3.4.2. Market fragmentation and key players The Turkish market can be fragmented into the main two sub markets integrated solid waste management (including waste-toenergy units) and waste water treatment, where the market share of companies strongly depends from the conducting business activities (i.e. won tenders) such as supply, service or construction contracts. They are other lucrative submarkets gaining increasing importance such as those for packaging waste collection, separation and recycling, medical and special waste, hazardous wastes, transportation of various waste types and their related sub markets. These and the key market players within each subsector are listed in detail in Section 5.2. The waste-to-energy market, i.e., energy production from solid waste and waste water sludge, is an establishing business concept in Turkey, since through the production and sales of electricity to the National Grid at a guaranteed feed-in-tariff (see Section 4.2.) and receiving returns from other revenues items significantly (see Section 3.5.1.) improves the business cases of investors. The actual total installed capacity of waste-to-energy facilities in Turkey is only 447 MW, of which 120 MW or about 25% are in operation. These include all the facilities applying the waste-to-energy technologies, mentioned in Subsection 3.3.2.1. The share of electricity production from waste on total Turkish electricity production, which is mainly fossil-fuel dominated, is actually only 0.2%.62 There are in total 63 waste-to-energy projects whose EMRA licenses are either in force, under evaluation or have reached a suitable status. The plant with largest installed capacity is 36 MW. In terms of installed capacity, ITC with 16% and Ortadogu Enerji with 10% have the highest market shares, followed by Kadirli BES and Büyük Menderes Enerji with a market share of 2.1% and 1.9%, respectively, both being biomass-to-energy facilities. Whereas, waste-to-energy plants from municipal waste and waste water sludge are in operation, no biomass-to-energy plant producing energy from agricultural waste is in operation yet. The total estimated bio-energy potential from municipal solid waste, agricultural waste, manure and waste from forestry and wood processing industry together is yearly 16.92 Mtoe.63 Therefore, the energy production potential from waste in Turkey can be considered as still mainly unused yet.

3.5. POTENTIAL INVESTMENT AND COOPERATION OPPORTUNITIES WITHIN THE INDUSTRY 3.5.1. In the Public Sector Today, in the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment industry, Public–Private Partnership (PPP) is the most common investment and cooperation structure with regard to the public sector. A PPP is a scheme where a government service or private business venture is funded and operated through a partnership of government and one or more private sector companies. That is, it refers to a contract between a public authority and a private company, in which the private company provides a public service or project and therefore faces substantial financial, technical and operational risk in the project and investment risk. Today, the existing PPP schemes in Turkey’s waste management and waste water treatment industry can be mainly divided into four parts: Construction, Operation, Finance and Ownership. Table 3.9 contains the elements of various existing PPP schemes in Turkey.

Outsourcing of services refers to a contract to operate a specific service without any construction or financing of a capital investment. Private finance initiative (PFI) projects incorporate usually long-term contracts for services that include the finance and construction of associated facilities or properties. In a PFI agreement, the private company has responsibility for financing and constructing the building or facility and maintaining and servicing it throughout the lifetime of the contract, which are usually decades, while the asset itself remains owned by the public sector. A public concession involves an exclusive right of a private company, granted by the government or local authority, to use a public utility such as land, property or water for a given number of years.
41
In a Leasing contract a private company does not make its own investments, but operates and maintains the system for the municipality, financed by the users, as for example, payment for waste water charges for each consumed m3 of water. A Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) refers to a scheme where the investment asset is built and owned by the company for the period of operation, and later transferred to the public sector. Some typical investment and cooperation opportunities for PPP schemes between (Metropolitan) municipalities and private companies are:
Outsourcing: , - Operation of composting plants, - Operation of recycling plants, - Operation of waste disposal plants, - Operation of waste incineration plants, - Operation of a waste water treatment plants. PFI: - Operation and maintenance of composting plants, - Operation and maintenance of recycling plants, - Operation and maintenance of waste disposal plants, - Operation and maintenance of waste incineration plants, - Operation and maintenance of a waste water treatment plants. Concession: - Right to use land of a local authority to build and operate a waste-to-energy plant for a lifetime of several decades, - License for energy production, - License for collection of waste oil, - License for recycling, - License for waste incineration, - etc. Leasing: - Operating and maintaining of a municipality’s waste water treatment facility by collected waste water charges. BOT: - Integrated solid waste management and waste-to-energy facility, - Industrial waste water treatment facility, - Municipal waste water treatment facility,
Below, some business cases for PPP’s in the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment industry will be highlighted. Concession contracts between governmental authorities and private investors of waste-to-energy projects for the rental of public land and license for energy production with a capacity of more than 1MW Concession contracts for the rental of public land between local authorities and private investors for the establishment of waste-to-energy facilities and, in the case where the plant’s capacity exceeds 1MW, the holding of energy production licenses from EMRA to receive the guaranteed feed-in-tariff of 13.3 US$ct / kWh (see Section 4.2.) are a must for private investors. Also in cases where waste-to-energy facilities will be established in originally private lands, these have first to be expropriated and handed over to the public sector where these are then rented from by the private investors for 49 years. The duration of energy production licenses from EMRA vary from 10-49 years, depending on the regulations in the Electricity Market Law No. 6446 (see Section 4.2.).
42
Hence, in concession contracts, the payment of rental fees is the only contractual relationship between public authorities and private companies, such that at the end of the lifetime of the contracts, these can be extended, renewed or terminated. All the other issues with regard to costs, financing and revenues generation from the project are under full responsibility of the private investor. The whole list of companies which have received their energy production licenses from EMRA can be found in Table 3.8 in Subsection 3.4.2.. BOT contracts between (Metropolitan) municipalities and private investors of integrated solid waste management and waste-to-energy facilities More and more (Metropolitan) municipalities are observed to waive their responsibility for the entire process of municipal solid waste management (i.e., collection, transportation, separation, recycling, composting, disposal) and tend to reduce their waste management activities only to the collection and transportation of waste and transfer the responsibility for the other waste activities to the private sector. Private companies increasingly see the lucrative business potential of integrating municipal solid waste management activities with the production of energy from waste. Concretely, in this more and more establishing business model, (Metropolitan) municipalities and private investors enter into a BOT contract, where via public tenders (Metropolitan) municipalities rent their landfill land (i.e., area) for 30 years for free and pass on their waste management duties to the private investors, who construct, finance and operate on their own behalf an integrated waste management and waste-to-energy facility during the lifetime of the BOT contract. In some cases, a BOT contract can be designed or continued as a BOC (Build-Operate-Carry) contract to carry on the business operations. An integrated solid waste management and waste-to-energy facility mainly includes the controlled landfill site, units for separation of the inorganic waste and organic waste, in some cases recycling units, aerobic digesters which biogas and highquality compost result (see Subsection 3.3.2.1.3.) and biogas engines which is then burned to produce electricity and heat. If units are available, the inorganic waste is recycled and won back as raw material for the industry again and the non-recyclable part are sold to the heavy (e.g., cement) industry as fuel. Hence, the private investors take over the municipal solid waste brought by trucks of (Metropolitan) municipalities to the integrated waste management site, where they are responsible apart from for its separation, handling and disposal. In return to the renting of land for free to the private investors, (Metropolitan) municipalities require a certain percentage, which, actually, is about is 7-10%, of the total produced electricity given to them for free during the lifetime of the BOT contract. Therefore, in addition to the electricity received for free, the main benefit for (Metropolitan) municipalities is the minimization of their waste activities to solely collection and transportation, whose costs are covered by the collected garbage tax of their residents, and thus passing on the responsibility for waste disposal, recycling and recovery activities to the private sector which continuously bring in know-how, technology innovation, expertise efficiency and cost optimization. The (Metropolitan) municipalities are no more involved with properly preparing the landfill area, embedding the objects coming there, covering them etc., which are all individual cost components. Or, in other words, for (Metropolitan) municipalities, the there are no other resulting costs (i.e., financing needs) than for waste collection and transportation. The return for their investment in the integrated waste management and waste-to-energy facility for the private investors are received through the
sales of electricity at the guaranteed feed-in-tariff of 13.3 US$ct / kWh to the National Grid (see Section 4.2.), sales of the resulting heat to neighbored shopping malls, schools, universities, governmental institutions, sites etc., sales of the recycled waste won back as raw material and non-recycled waste used as fuel by companies from the heavy industry and sales of the generated carbon credits in the global carbon market.
Some selected business examples for such PPP’s in the form of concession agreements are those between
43
Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality and Ortadogu Enerji,
Ankara Metropolitan Municipality and ITC64, Municipality of Bolu and CEV Marmara65, Municipality of Tekirdag and Ekolojik Enerji, Municipality Denizli of and Bereket Enerji, Municipality of Kirikkale and Zarif Enerji.
The private companies hereby mostly form JV / partnerships and finance the projects by their own equity and funds from national or international financial institutions (see Subsection 2.5.2.). Hence, the main contractual terms and conditions to be discussed and agreed in business negotiations with regard to concession contracts is the percentage rate of free electricity in return for (Metropolitan) municipalities and in some cases, also the additional financial assistance of (Metropolitan) municipalities to private investors to realize, operate and maintain the project by the collected taxes from the residents for waste disposal and recovery services. By law, (Metropolitan) municipalities are allowed to collect a maximum of monthly 2 TL per subscriber for the investment in this kind of services (see Section 3.2. and Chapter 4). The main reasons why these business examples are classified as BOT contracts and not as concession contracts, as in the previous business examples, are that the private companies are in continuous business relationships with (Metropolitan) municipalities by daily receiving their municipal solid waste, have to pay returns in form of electricity provided for free to (Metropolitan) municipalities, if applicable, receive some financial assistance from (Metropolitan) municipalities and have to pass on the whole facility to (Metropolitan) municipalities after the lifetime of the BOT contract. BOT contracts between (Metropolitan) municipalities and private companies for municipal waste water treatment facilities Especially, in the Turkish waste water treatment industry, BOT agreements between (Metropolitan) municipalities and private companies are gaining increasing importance, where the built operated waste water treatment facility by the private company is reverted back to (Metropolitan) municipalities at the end of the lifetime of the BOT contract which is varies from some years to several decades, depending on the size of the project. In the BOT business model, the private companies construct the waste water treatment facilities and bring in know-how, technology, material, machinery and equipment which are fully or partly financed by them. That is, in addition to the financing part from (Metropolitan) municipalities, which make use of their own equity and / or debt from international financial institutions (see Section 6.4.), private companies, mainly construction companies, finance the projects with their own equipment and know-how and in response, after the establishment of the waste water treatment facility, they are contractually allowed to operate it for some years to achieve return on their investments. The revenues from the collection of waste water payments from their residents by (Metropolitan) municipalities are given to the private company during the lifetime of the BOT contract. Some selected business examples for such PPP’s in the form of BOT contracts are those between
Adana Metropolitan Municipality and Va Tech Wabag66, Serco Group67, Yüksel Construction and Ener Construction (BOT contract with a three-year operational phase), Municipality of Dilovasi and TASK (BOT contract lifetime of 29 years), Isatnbul Metropolitan Municipality and WTE68.
Outsourcing and PFI contracts between (Metropolitan) municipalities and private companies for municipal waste water treatment facilities In particular, when a waste water treatment facility has been handed over to (Metropolitan) municipalities by private companies at the end of the lifetime of a BOT contract, (Metropolitan) municipalities enter into outsourcing agreements with Swiss / Turkish partnership Korean / Turkish partnership 66 Austrian company as consortium leader 67 UK company 68 German (RWE) / Turkish partnership 64 65
44
private companies, specialized in operation, or into PFT agreements with those, specialized in both operation and maintenance of waste water treatment facilities. Outsourcing or PFI contracts for the operation and / or operation and maintenance of waste water treatment facilities of (Metropolitan) municipalities usually last about 10-15 years. A selected business example for such a PPP in the form of an outsourcing agreement for waste water operation is that one between 
Bursa Metropolitan Municipality and Remondis S-Y69.
3.5.2. In the Private Sector Joint Venture (JV) / partnership is the most common investment and cooperation structure and initiatives in Turkey’s private sector. Private finance (debt and equity) is increasingly being considered as the major financing instrument for waste management and waste water treatment projects in Turkey. Especially entrepreneurs, financiers providing equity, construction companies and supply companies make use of this cooperation form by mobilizing needed investment funds and by bringing in know-how, expertise, technology, machinery and equipment, skills, efficiency, financial and managerial autonomy, a hard budget constraint and many other positive effects of cooperation. In addition to the provision of equity, waste management and waste water treatment projects are mainly financed with loans both from domestic and international banks and other international financial institutions (see Section 6.4.). Especially, there is an increasing trend between Turkish companies entering in PPP’s (see Subsection 3.5.2.) with municipalities or local authorities for waste management and waste water treatment projects, and establishment of JV / partnerships between the Turkish and foreign private companies. Besides the various positive synergy effects of a cooperation mentioned, this could be also due to the reasons that foreign companies are not always allowed to directly take part in public tenders. Moreover, industrial companies establishing waste disposal and recovery units of their solid waste in their manufacturing facilities, increasingly form JV / partnerships with a private company bringing in expertise in integrated waste management technology, engineering and project management. The same is also true for industrial companies, discharging their waste water and establishing waste water treatment units at their manufacturing facilities. In addition to JV / partnerships, of course, also full ownership of a local or foreign company is possible, being solely responsible for financing the waste management or waste water treatment projects. In case of foreign companies, this could be the expansion of their businesses to Turkey, by founding a local subsidiary, governed under Turkish business law and registration. Joint R&D initiatives / cooperation between a local (Turkish) company and one or more foreign companies, where diverse grant-type and credit loan-type funding mechanisms are available in Turkey, gain more and more importance (see Subsection 6.4.). Of course, besides JV / partnerships, another established business cooperation form in Turkey is subcontracting for the provision of project management, advisory, engineering or any other form of services, or supply of services, machinery and equipment with regard to waste management and waste water treatment. Below, some successful business cases in the private sector regarding the Turkish waste management and waste water industry will be highlighted. JV / Partnerships in other than municipal waste waste-to-energy business concepts Whereas JV / partnerships in waste-to-energy production from municipal solid waste is gaining increasing importance in Turkey (see Subsection 3.5.1.), in general, energy production from agricultural waste, manure and poultry litter is still in the beginning and development status, hence, representing a high market and business potential in Turkey. 69
German / Turkish partnership
45
Some initiatives have been launched to build an integrated facility including a breeding farm, units / systems for manure collection, anaerobic digesters (see Subsection 3.3.2.1.3.), due to wet content of manure, and biogas engines to produce heat and electricity for own use and / or selling to third parties. Also, some JVs / partnerships and initiatives, based on the union of several entrepreneurs under a new founded company, have started to invest in the biomass-to-energy market, where, due to their rather dry content, poultry litter and agricultural waste are increasingly used to produce heat and electricity from thermo-chemical methods such as gasification or pyrolysis (see Subsection 3.3.2.1.3.). Today, poultry litter is in mainly dumped into open areas very near to villages, causing a bad odor for the region, releasing methane gas to the atmosphere and resulting in a high explosion risk. Additionally, the groundwater in the region is threatened. The JV / partnership companies finance the projects by their own equity and mostly combined with debt, received from local commercial banks, international financial institutes or programs such as TurSEFF or MidSEFF (see Section 6.4.). JV / partnership companies own and are fully responsible for the project design, management and its realization and are exposed to business risk. All the contracts are between them and the suppliers of machinery and equipment and, providers of advisory services. The general agreements between chicken breeders and investors of biomass-to-energy plants is that the latter guarantee to clean the chicken coops for free and pick up the poultry litter by trucks directly from the chicken coops, thereby relieving the chicken breeders from their waste concerns. In contrast, the investors pay a certain amount of money, which is actually 5-15 US$ for each received ton of poultry litter. The lifetime of the supply contracts are mainly 10 years. The return for their investment in the biomass-to-energy facility for the private investors are received through the
sales of electricity at the guaranteed feed-in-tariff of 13.3 US$ct / kWh to the National Grid (see Section 4.2.), sales of the resulting bio-char for organic and sustainable farming practices, sales of the resulting pyrolytic oil in the biofuel refinery market, sales of the generated carbon credits in the global carbon market.
Some selected business examples for JV / partnerships are
Derin Enerji (Beypazari Biomass-to-Energy Facility, Province of Ankara), Karaman Yenilenebilir Enerji (Karaman Biomass-to-Energy Facility, Province of Karaman).
Full ownership / expansion of the business activities to Turkey Especially large foreign multinational conglomerates, having a strong financial structure, increasingly invest in Turkey directly, without entering any JV / partnerships, to enlarge their business activities and use the Turkish market potential in their sectors. For that purpose, they found a local company, governed by Turkish business law, but fully own the shares of the company. Due to regulatory purposes, but also to establish their advanced business and regulatory standards as well as technologies existing in their countries, foreign companies with a local presence increasingly target to be pioneer companies. A good business example is the yeast producer Mauri Maya, a local subsidiary of AB Mauri70, which fully treats its resulting waste water from the yeast manufacturing process with the advanced waste water treatment method, thereby fully fulfilling regulatory requirements and even applying EU standards.
70
AB Mauri is a daughter company of the Associated British Foods, a worldwide leading food company.

4. The Regulatory Drivers for Waste & Renewable Energy from Waste 4.1. MAIN REGULATORY STAKEHOLDERS Ministry of Environment and Urbanization (MoEU) The Ministry of Environment and Urbanization (MoEU) is the principal regulatory stakeholder in Turkey with the objective of defining and setting strategic plans, secondary legislation, nation-wide policies, operational plans and actions with regard to waste management and waste water treatment and is responsible for their real-world implementation. MoEU also specifies the technical standards, issue licenses for waste management and waste water treatment facilities, manages their licensing process, takes precautionary measures and is responsible for their assessing, auditing and monitoring. Moreover, MoEU sets and implements financial incentives for the stimulation of the waste management and waste water treatment sector and has also created the “EU Integrated Environmental Approximation Strategy for Turkey (2007-2023)” (see Section 4.2). Ministry of Development (MoD) The Ministry of Development (MoD) is an important regulatory stakeholder with the objective of setting national consolidated development plans for Turkey from a macro perspective to further stimulate economic, social and cultural development in Turkey. MoD sets annual, medium- and long-term programmes, investment plans and overall targets in coordination and with the support of the corresponding ministry(ies) for the Turkey’s various sectors, including the waste water and waste water treatment sector. The “Development Plans” (see Section 4.2), periodically published by MoD, contains all infrastructure public investments. MoD is also responsible for the administration and appraisal of public investments in accordance with development plans, annual programs and strategy documents. In that sense, the projects of provincial and Metropolitan municipalities that need foreign loan are also assessed by MoD and the feasible one(s) are included into the public investment portfolio. Municipalities Municipalities and Metropolitan municipalities are by law in public charge and have the sole responsibility for the implementation of waste management and waste water treatment services for domestic type of waste and waste water from households, industries or commercial enterprises.71,72,73,74,75 They can either provide these services themselves, or assign other companies or institutions to provide these services. During the disposal activities, damage on the environment has to be avoided, the maximal use of the landfills ensured as well as the classification and separation of recyclable solid waste done. Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EMRA) The Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EMRA) is responsible for setting and implementing energy regulations and notifications, based on laws with regard to energy passed by the Turkish Parliament. EMRA is also responsible for auditing and monitoring as well as issuing energy generation licenses and managing the licensing process for energy projects above 1 MW. Thus, in that sense, EMRA is an important regulatory stakeholder for biogas-producing waste management and waste water treatment projects where electricity is generated from and then sold to the National Grid for a regulatory guaranteed feed-intariff, specified in detail for each type of renewable energy (see Section 4.2). Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MoENR) The Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MoENR) is an important regulatory stakeholder with the objective of defining targets and policies with regard to guaranteeing security of energy supply, restructuring the energy market on a competitive transparent basis, identifying, utilizing and developing domestic and renewable resource potentials, making use of energy Law on Environment No. 2872: http://www.ttb.org.tr/mevzuat/?option=com_content&view=article&id=49:vre-ka.. Regulation on Solid Waste Control: http://www.mevzuat.gov.tr/Metin.Aspx?MevzuatKod=7.5.8132&sourceXmlSearch=&MevzuatIliski=0 Regulation on Water Pollution Control: http://mevzuat.basbakanlik.gov.tr/Metin.Aspx?MevzuatKod=7.5.7221&sourceXmlSearch=&MevzuatIliski=0 74 Municipality Law No. 5393: http://www.tbmm.gov.tr/kanunlar/k5393.html 75 Metropolitan Municipality Law No. 5216: http://www.tbmm.gov.tr/kanunlar/k5216.html 71

efficiency and new energy technologies as well as supplying its diverse available natural minerals to the domestic or global market. In that sense, MoENR is responsible for designing policies and operational and strategic plans with regard to the development of renewable energy market in Turkey which the production of electricity and heat from biogas, generated from waste, belongs to. By this means, MoENR periodically defines periodical strategic plans, of which the “Strategic Plan 20142014” is the actual valid one (see Section 4.2). General Directorate of Renewable Energy (YEGM) The General Directorate of Renewable Energy (YEGM) of MoENR is the operational and central directorate with regard to each specific type renewable energy, energy efficiency, clean technologies and climate change issues, policies and actions. Turkey Electricity Transmission Company (TEIAS) The Turkey Electricity Transmission Company (TEIAS) is a related institution of MoENR, which is has a crucial role for investments in power projects with regard to the connection of the produce electricity to the National Grid. In that sense, for biogas-producing waste management and waste water treatment projects where electricity is generated from and then sold to the National Grid, it is a must for each investor to receive a connection (i.e., capacity) approval letter from TEIAS for the corresponding electricity delivery point of the National Grid (transformator station). Ministry of EU Affairs The Ministry of EU Affairs is assigned with the coordination role between the various governmental institutions and EU with regard to Turkey’s EU integration and harmonization activities. These are all based on the “Turkish National Program for the Adoption of the EU Acquis”. In line with this Program and objective of Turkey’s EU accession, amongst others, most of the national regulations with regard to waste management and waste treatment services have been adopted to the existing EU regulations (see Section 3.2.1). Local Authorities The local authorities are in charge of ensuring the protection of environmental quality in provinces or districts. They are also assigned with the duty of waste management and waste water treatment within the framework of laws and regulations, are mandated to ensure the implementation of legal arrangements, issue the various permits and opinion letters, which are relevant for the implementation of waste- and waste water-related projects, and take suitable measures for ensuring a healthy environment for the population within their responsibility territories. Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology (MoSIT) The Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology (MoSIT) is responsible for promotion and development of Basic and Applied Research, industrial activities, products and services and local technology with regard to waste management and waste water treatment. Moreover, MoSIT is in charge for supporting and controlling the of small- and large-scale industries, designs standards for industrial and technological products or publishes the designed standards, and is responsible for the controlling of quality of industrial and technological products and services. MoSIT also gives credit loans and grants for small and medium-sized enterprises for the development and market introduction of new products, services, processes and technologies. MoIST in co-ordination of MoEU and MoD also defined the “National Strategy and Action Plan for Recycling 2013-2016” (see Section 4.2). Turkish Standards Institution (TSE) The Turkish Standards Institution (TSE) of the Prime Ministry has the objective of preparing standards for each kind of product or service and is responsible for their certification. The TSE is an official trademark. That is, only the standards that have been accepted by TSE receive the name of Turkish Standards. TSE is a full member of International Organization for Standardization (ISO), International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), and affiliate member of European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC). TSE is also a member of World Packaging Organization (WPO) and is a signatory to the Code of Good Practice contained in the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade and acts as the National Enquiry Point in connection with standards under the said Agreement. Moreover, TSE is in line with internationally accepted trademarks such as the CE Mark for health and safety, constituted in the EU. Thus, amongst others, the Turkish Standards Institution (TSE) is in charge of defining and setting standards for waste management and waste water treatment products and services.

Today, 80% of Turkey’s population is living in the cities, whereas for the rest of the world, this is 50%. 76 In the next 30 to 35 years, the world population is expected to rise to 9 billion, 75% of the world population is then expected to live in cities, whereas the percentage of urban population in Turkey is expected to rise to 90%. “Strategic Plan 2013-2017” of MoEU The actual “Strategic Plan 2013-2017” of MoEU has four strategic objectives consisting of detailed targets for each of them77. For waste management and waste water management issues, “Objective 2 - Preventing environmental pollution, raising environmental standards, combating climate change and improving its natural assets” with the following targets are of importance. Target 2.1: Until the end of 2017, at least 85% of the municipal population will be provided with waste water treatment services. Strategy: Waste water treatment plants will be design and their construction supported. In 2002, 248 out of 3227 municipalities were served by 145 waste water treatment plants, whereas in 2012, 530 out of 2950 municipalities were served by 428 waste water treatment plants. In terms of population, in 2002, 35% of the municipal population was served by municipal waste water treatment services, whereas in 2012, this rate increased to 72%. Until the end of 2017, approval for 460 waste water treatment plant projects will be made. Furthermore, the number of waste water treatment facilities receiving energy incentives is targeted to increase to 500. For municipalities with a population size less than 10,000 waste water treatment plant (AAT) type projects, incorporating an appropriate treatment processes and technologies and working with extended aeration activated sludge systems (biological treatment). Since 2007, many settlements under IPA for the waste water treatment plant projects are in progress. Some of them are in the construction, some in the project and some in the feasibility phase. Furthermore, there are also projects available, belonging to municipalities which get financial support from EU funds and are not covered by IPA. According to the Regulation on Procedures and Principles of Taking Advantage of Incentive Measures of Waste water Treatment Plants in Line with Law on Environment No. 2872, Article 29, in order to increase the water quality of the receiving environment, waste water treatment administrations, establishing, operating chemical, biological and advanced waste water treatment plants, and after fulfilling the obligations specified in the regulation, discharging to the receiving environment or re-using the treated waste water, will receive financial incentives such as mitigation of operating costs or encouraging the operation of treatment plants. Waste water treatment plants, operated in line with the regulation, get 50% of their energy costs back from MoEU. Table 4.1 and Figures 4.1-4.3 contain the strategic yearly performance indicators concerning municipal waste water treatment for the whole period 2013-2017.

Target 2.2: Until the end of 2017, all of the existing waste infrastructure facilities will be improved and at least 85% of the population will be provided with waste disposal services, at least 50% of recoverable waste will be separated at its source and at least 75% of it will be recycled…” -
Strategies: The number of landfill facilities of solid waste will be increased. Waste receiving centers will be established. Dual-collection system will be introduced.
Until 2013, the number of controlled landfill facilities for solid waste was 15, increasing to 38 in 2008, and to 41 in 2009. In 2012, the number of controlled landfill facilities for solid waste reached 69, serving a total of 903 municipalities for 44.5 million people. In order to ensure an integrated waste management, the number of solid waste disposal facilities, which belong to the category of infrastructure facilities, is targeted to be increased to 130. Accordingly, until the end of 2013, the number of controlled landfill facilities is targeted to increase to 80, and at the end of 2017 to 130. Regulations with regard to waste bringing centers will be completed. Primarily beginning with municipalities with population of 400,000 and more, waste collection centers will be established, waste which will be collected at the points and can be reused, will be offered / tendered for re-use, recycling possibilities increased as well as education and awareness-raising activities with regard to waste reduction at source and its separate collection. At the end of 2013, in 37 municipalities which have a
51
population of more than 400.000, and at the end of 2017, in 550 municipalities which have a population of more than 10.000 waste bringing centers will be established. Especially, in small municipalities, by applying of economies of scale, waste bringing centers regarding union model and bulk solution will be encouraged. In 2013, 6 Metropolitan municipalities will establish the dual collection system and at the end of 2017, 63 municipalities. Table 4.2 and Figures 4.4-4.7 contain the strategic yearly performance indicators concerning municipal waste management sector for the whole period 2013-2017.

Turkey’s “2023 goals” To the 100th anniversary of the Turkish Republic in 2023, the Turkish Government has set the “2023 goals”, where for 2023, for various economic sectors and areas in Turkey strategic goals are propagated. According to these “2023 goals”, there will be no more any waste water which has been not treated, and all the citizens living in municipalities will be provided with waste management services. Moreover, it is aimed to go towards the use of more advanced technologies, such as the energy production from solid waste and recycling of solid waste. Today, the rate of population served by municipal waste services in total population is 83% and 72% of total municipal population is receiving waste water treatment services. Thus, according to the “Strategic Plan 2013-2017”, but particularly, according to Turkey’s “2023 goals” policies, actions and incentives will be set by the Turkish Government in order to close the gaps and achieve these goals. Figure 4.8 shows the combined target 2017 in the “Strategic Plan 2013-2017” with Turkey’s “2023 goals” regarding the ratio of population receiving waste water treatment services, and Figure 4.9 illustrates the actual situation and Turkey’s 2023 goal with regard to the rate of population receiving municipal waste services.

“EU Integrated Environmental Approximation Strategy for Turkey (2007-2023) (UCES)” Another important institutional framework is the “EU Integrated Environmental Approximation Strategy for Turkey (20072023) (U ES)”, prepared by MoEU, which is in line with the “National Program for the Adoption of the EU Acquis (NPAA)”
53
under the administration of the Ministry of EU Affairs. U ES is a strategic document, as a prerequisite for Turkey’s EU accession, which contains detailed information with regard to technical and institutional infrastructure gaps, mandatory environmental improvements, governmental actions, policies and investments needed to ensure full harmonization and compliance with EU environmental acquis. UCES addresses several environmental sectors.78 In the following, it will be focused on the waste management and waste water treatment sector. According to UCES, regulations which require high levels of investments for their implementation are the Regulation on Landfilling, Regulation on Hazardous Waste, Regulation on Packaging Waste, Regulation on Waste Incineration and Regulation on Urban Waste Water Treatment (see Subsection 3.2.1). UCES contains costs, objectives, targets and strategies for these regulations, however, it does not include the implementation of regulations which need investments for the private sector such as the Regulation on Control of Waste Oils, Regulation on Control of Waste Batteries and Accumulators, Regulation on Control of End of Life Vehicles, Regulation on Control of Waste Electrical and Electronic Components and Regulation on Control of PCBs and PCTs. For the period 2007-2023, Turkey has total investment needs in the amount of 58.59 billion Euros in order to fully implement the environmental standards according to EU legislation. The investment needs for the period 2007-2023 with regard to municipal waste management and waste water treatment are illustrated in Table 4.3 and Table 4.4, respectively.

In detail, Table 4.3 lists the investment needs for the closure of old dumping sites, construction of new landfills (for the disposal of hazardous and domestic solid waste), establishment of separate collection systems for dual collection and recyclable 78

wastes, construction of compost facilities, construction of incineration facilities (for hazardous waste and domestic solid waste in Metropolitan municipalities, when needed and where land area is limited).79 However, the costs in Table 4.4 do not incorporate technological adaption. These have to be revised according to technology preferences considering the requirements of the country. The total investment needs for the period 2007-2023 with regard to landfilling are 7.58 billion Euros, packaging 665 million Euros, incineration 1.26 billion Euros and hazardous waste 74 million EUR, resulting in total investment needs for the municipal waste management sector of 9.57 billion Euros, which are 16.34% of Turkey’s total investment needs. The total investment needs for the period 2007-2023 with regard to waste water treatment (WWT) are 4.98 billion Euros, establishment of network 3.84 billion Euros, WWT renewal 1.54 billion Euros and network renewal 7.72 billion Euros, resulting in total investment need for the municipal waste water treatment sector of 18.08 billion Euros, which are 30.86% of Turkey’s total investment needs. Another important topic in the UCES is the industrial pollution control sector. Although the regulations have mainly been adapted to the EU legislation, their implementation shows another picture. In particular, to the Regulation on Control of Water Pollution, which defines the waste water standards for 16 sectors and prescribes the use of advanced waste water treatment technologies, the required level of activity and attention is not shown. According to 2010 TURKSTAT data, about 75% of the industrial waste water is still discharged without any treatment, therefore clearly being in compliance with the Regulation on Control of Water Pollution. In addition to that, in the industrial sector the disposal of industrial solid waste is still not accordance with the Regulation on the General Principles of Waste Management, Regulation on Control of Solid Waste, Regulation on Landfilling, Regulation on Control of Hazardous Waste and Regulation on Waste Incineration. According to 2010 TURKSTAT data, still 20% of the industrial waste is still disposed through unconventional methods such as dumping into open dumping sites or accumulating it in the factory in any way (see Subsection 3.3.1.). As mentioned, the cost of compliance with EU acquis in the industrial sector has to be funded to a large extent by the private sector. However, UCES states that large incineration plants, in line with the EU Large Combustion Plants Directive80, will be mainly financed by the public sector. Accordingly, large incineration plants, regardless of the type of fuel (solid, liquid or gas), are defined as those whose rated thermal input is equal to or greater than 50 MW in order to introduce limit values for dust, sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions. The investment needs for the period 2007-2023 with regard to large waste incineration plants are illustrated in Table 4.5.

The total investment needs for the period 2007-2023 with regard to large incineration plants are 1.19 billion Euros, which are 2.03% of Turkey’s total investment needs. It is noted in UCES that, after 2023 additional investment amount of 696.63 million Euros / year is required.

As a result, the municipal waste management sector, the municipal waste water treatment sector and the industrial sector (only including large incineration plants) all together need public finance in the amount of 28.84 billion Euros. Hence, they make up about half of the total investment needs for Turkey’s environmental sector to achieve full compliance with the EU environmental legislation. Section 6.4 lists and describes the various financing mechanisms for meeting these investment needs. “National Recycling Strategy and Action Plan 2013-2016” One important goal of the “EU Sustainable Development Strategy” is “…to increase the efficient use of natural resources and avoid waste production by applying the life-cycle concept and encouraging the re-use and recycling of waste…”.81 Except for 3545% of the waste, many developed countries are completely recycling the remaining part of the waste and regain it for the economy.82 Regarding waste management, EU is planning to increase its recycling targets to 70-80% levels in many countries. More than a half of the waste generated in Turkey has recoverable features. Hence, taking this market potential and simultaneously the EU targets and thus Turkey’s EU accession target into account, the MoSIT has prepared the “National Recycling Strategy and Action Plan 2013-2016”, which is also incorporated in the “Strategic Plan 2013-2017” of MoSIT and whose scope consists of municipal waste, waste batteries and accumulators, packaging waste, waste electrical and electronic components, end of life vehicles, waste oils, expired tires, metal scrap, animal waste, industrial waste and excavation, construction and demolition waste. There are 6 strategic objectives associated with this recycling strategy document: Objective 1: Establishing recycling / recovery and collection-separation awareness in all segments of society. Objective 2: Making the relevant legislation compliant with the purpose of recycling / recovery and collectionseparation. Objective 3: Storage, collection and transport of all the recyclable waste separately at source. Objective 4: Preparing and implementing funding and support models with regard to recycling / recovery and collection-separation. Objective 5: Establishing infrastructure that will allow public-private co-operation and co-ordination. Objective 6: Establishing an effective control system by registering the production of waste. Therefore, relevant governmental actions will be undertaken in order to achieve these targets until 2016. Objective 1 contains actions, during the whole period 2013-2016, such as education (lessons, courses, capacity building), contests, projects, public advertising in streets, shopping malls and public places in the form of posters, brochures and informative guides, symposium and workshops, establishment of education centers, vocational training in universities, vocational (high) schools and special courses, and much more. Beneficiaries are various institutions and organizations such as primary / junior high / high schools, local government, industrialists and management of organized industrial zones, suppliers, clients, and much more. Main institutions in charge are the Ministry of Education, MoEU and MoSIT. Main actions for the corresponding objectives 2-5 with the corresponding responsible governmental institutions are listed in detail in Table 4.6-4.9.

Renewable Energy Law No. 5346 Today, the share of renewable energy production in the country’s total electricity production, which is mainly based on fossilfuel, is 74.6%.83 The major source for electricity production is natural gas with a share of 45.4%, making Turkey a highly import dependent country of natural gas (Russia and Iran). In order to decrease the import dependency on energy and improve the country’s balance of payments, MoENR, associated with Turkey’s “2023 goals”, has set a specific renewable energy goal of 30% until 2023. This goal states that until 2023 at least 30% of the total Turkish electricity production should be met by renewable energy sources. In order to achieve this goal, the Renewable Energy Law No. 5346 (REL), put into force in 2005, has the objective to regulate electricity production from renewable energy sources in Turkey and defines the financial support mechanism. REL is the central regulatory document for waste-to-energy investments. With this regard, following renewable energy sources, defined in REL, are of relevance for waste management investments: Biomass: Organic waste as well as waste vegetable oil, and sources derived from agricultural and forestry products (including agricultural crop residues) and by-products resulting from the processing of these products. Gas derived from biomass (including landfill gas)84 After having received the energy production license from EMRA, lasting between 10-49 years, depending on the regulations in the Electricity Market Law No. 644685, the governmentally guaranteed feed-in-tariff, which has a duration of 10 years from the beginning of operation of the power plant, can be asserted by a private investor. The guaranteed-feed-in tariffs for the various renewable energy sources are listed in Table 4.10.

The highest 10 year feed-in-tariffs are for biomass and solar which is 13.3 US$ct / kWh. However, the REL prescribes that in the case of the use of locally constructed mechanical and / or electro-mechanical equipment, depending on the produced equipment type, the feed-in-tariffs can be further increased. This support mechanism has duration of 5 years from the beginning of operation of the power plant. The several feed-in-tariffs for specific mechanical and / or electro-mechanical equipment for each type of renewable energy source are listed in Table 4.11.

Source: Renewable Energy Law No. 5346
For biomass power based power plants, by using 100% of locally constructed mechanical and / or electro-mechanical equipment, the additional total domestic contribution is 5.6 US$ct / kWh. Hence, the resulting guaranteed-feed-in tariff for the first five years would be 18.9 US$ct / kWh and for the remaining five years 13.3 US$ct / kWh. Therefore, the Renewable Energy Law No. 5346 which regulates the Turkish renewable energy market involves the business incentive for further investments in innovation and local technology development to increase the guaranteed feed-in-tariff to the maximum amount of 18.9 US$ct / kWh, and that the remaining part of the investments could be partly financed by collected taxes of (Metropolitan) municipalities (see Section 3.5.1.).
4.3. PRODUCT STANDARDS & END OF WASTE CRITERIA In Turkey, waste management and waste water management regulations are driven by the developments in the European Commission (EC) due to the harmonization target of Turkey to the EU directives. The issue “end-of –waste” (EoW) criteria was introduced by the European Commission with Article 6 of the Waste Framework Directive (2008/98/EC) of December 2008. According to this article, “…certain specified waste shall cease to be waste when it has undergone a recovery (including recycling) operation and complies with specific criteria to be developed in line with certain legal conditions, in particular:
the substance or object is commonly used for specific purposes;
there is an existing market or demand for the substance or object;
the use is lawful (substance or object fulfills the technical requirements for the specific purposes and meets the existing legislation and standards applicable to products);
the use will not lead to overall adverse environmental or human health impacts.” 86
According to this directive, a methodology to develop the criteria has been elaborated by the Joint Research Centre and some technical proposals on End-of-waste Criteria for Iron and Steel Scrap, End-of-waste Criteria for Aluminum and Aluminum Alloy Scrap, End-of-waste Criteria for Waste Paper, End-of-waste Criteria for Copper and Copper Alloy Scrap and End-ofwaste Criteria for Glass Cullet have been concluded in the years 2010 and 201187. However, while these developments take place at the EC side, in the scope of the harmonization of Waste Framework Directive (2008/98/EC), the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization (MoEU) has just published a draft Regulation on Waste Management open for the comments of stakeholders, on 28.03.2013, and this regulation did not include the End of Waste criteria. Nevertheless, it is expected that the End of Waste criteria will be handled in the future regulations in line with Waste Framework Directive of European Commission. On the other hand, the Turkish Standard Institute (TSE; see Section 4.1.) published standards which are directly or in directly related with the product standard and End of Waste criteria. Some of these standards are developed according to the waste directives of European Commission. These standards are rules, methods, terms and symbols on characterization & classification of waste, waste water, work place and safety. The most relevant standards for waste management and waste water 86 http://ec.europa.eu/environment/waste/framework/end_of_waste.htm 87 http://susproc.jrc.ec.europa.eu/activities/waste/index.html

5. The Turkish Waste Management Industry 5.1. CURRENT SIZE AND FUTURE INVESTMENTS The current size of the waste management industry is much larger than the forecasted needs in the strategic regulatory document “EU Integrated Environmental Approximation Strategy for Turkey (UCES) 2007-2023” (see Tables 4.3-4.4 in Section 4.2.). Table 5.1 shows the environmental expenditure by environmental domains.

In 2010, the expenditures for waste services amounted to 4.2 bn TL and 2.2 bn TL for waste water treatment services, or 2.1 bn EUR and 1.1 bn EUR88, respectively, representing together more than a half of the total environmental expenditure. Their common share increased from 41% in 2006 to 52% in 2010, implying their increasing importance for Turkey’s environmental sector. Whereas, within that period, the expenditure for waste water treatment services increased by 50%, it nearly tripled for waste services, which represent the largest environmental expenditure item today. The TL-expenditure per tonne of municipal waste nearly tripled from 57.4 TL/t in 2006 to 166.0 TL/t in 2010. The TLexpenditure per m3 of municipal waste water increased from 0.44 TL/t in 2006 to 0.63 TL/t in 2010, implying a nearly 50% increase. 88

Table 5.2 contains the three official expected population growth scenarios (i.e., i.e. basic scenario, scenario 2 and scenario 3) for Turkey by TURKSTAT and authors’ estimations with regard to the market size in absolute amount and its TL-value of municipal waste for the period 2013-2023. The author refers to UCES where it is targeted that until 2023 the whole population will receive waste services. Thereby, three scenarios for the yearly average amount of municipal waste per capita are modeled by the author: Scenario 1 (i.e., base scenario): Municipal waste per capita remains at an average of 400 kg / year Scenario 2: Municipal waste per capita moderately increases to an average of 450 kg / year Scenario 3: Municipal waste per capita strongly increases to an average of 500 kg / year

Source: TUBITAK (2023) for expected population growth scenarios and author’s own calculations based on authors’ modeled municipal waste per capita / year scenarios
Hence, according to TUBITAK’s population growth scenarios and authors’ scenarios for the future amounts of municipal waste in Table 5.1, by accounting for the decreasing growth in TL-expenditure per ton of waste (TL/t) in Table 5.2 and assuming future expenditures between 200-300 TL/t for municipal waste, the estimated yearly TL expenditures in the municipal waste industry ranges between 6.5-12.5 bn TL for the period 2013-2023. These are very likely to further increase if the expenditures in TL/t increase more than assumed here. Table 5.3 incorporates the three official expected population growth scenarios (i.e., i.e. basic scenario, scenario 2 and scenario 3) for Turkey by TURKSTAT and authors’ estimations regarding the market size in absolute amount and its TL-value of
72
municipal waste water for the period 2013-2023. The author refers to UCES where it is targeted that until 2023 the whole population will receive waste services and according the “Strategic Plan 2013-2017” a target of 85% of the rate of population receiving waste water treatment services is defined. Thereby, three scenarios for the daily average amount of municipal waste water per capita are modeled by the author: Scenario 1 (i.e., base scenario): Municipal waste water per capita remains at an average of 180 liters / year Scenario 2: Municipal waste water per capita moderately increases to an average of 210 liters / year Scenario 3: Municipal waste water per capita strongly increases to an average of 240 liters / year Table 5.3: Expected population growth scenarios and estimated yearly amount of municipal waste water (in Mio. m3), 2013-2023 YEAR

Source: TUBITAK (2023) for expected population growth scenarios and author’s own calculations based on authors’ modeled municipal wastewtare per capita / year scenarios
As a result, according to TUBITAK’s population growth scenarios and authors’ scenarios for the future amounts of municipal waste water in Table 5.3, by assuming future TL-expenditures per m3 waste water between 0.80-1.20 TL/t for municipal waste water, the estimated yearly TL expenditures in the municipal waste water industry ranges between 4.0-8.9 bn TL for the period 2013-2023. These are very likely to increase if the expenditures in TL/t increase more than assumed here. Unlike the TUBITAK data for expenditures for municipal waste management and municipal waste water services, there are no such publicly data available for industrial waste management and municipal waste water services. Moreover, with regard to the amount of industrial waste water, only 4 years of survey years are available. However, the amount of waste water discharged by industrial companies shows a clearly increasing trend.
73
From the awarded pubic tenders (see Section 5.2.), on the basis of contract value or max. budget, approximate statements can be made regarding the current and future size of the industrial waste management and waste water industry.
5.2. KEY PLAYERS AND MARKET STRUCTURE There are quite many companies and organisations active in the waste management and waste water treatment market in Turkey. However, in order to clarify the market structure and its key players, it is required to consider more than small sales records and sole claims of the entities. In this part, to elucidate all these issues market analyse will be carried out beginning from the reverse side. It will be firstly indicated “who buys, what buys and how much pays?” instead of having a direct close look at the companies in the market. The main clients of waste management and waste water treatment industry are municipalities. Municipalities purchase technical assistance services, construction works and operation-maintenance services from private sector companies. For each of these procurements, municipalities conduct separate tenders. Municipalities mainly finance these tenders via grants of European Union, bank loans of Ilbank A.S. or their own equity capital. Tables 5.4-5.7 indicate all the waste management and waste water treatment tenders financed by the EU. The tenders granted by the EU include 15 to 35% of National Contribution (see Section 6.4.). In scope of EU tenders, technical assistance for planning and construction works is financed. Total value of the waste management service tenders hitherto funded by the EU is 24’060’515 Euro and that for the waste management construction tenders is 37’914’659 Euro, for the waste water treatment service tenders it is 41’452’369 Euro and for the waste water treatment construction tenders it is 175’393’577 Euro. As it can be easily inferred from Table 5.4, waste management service tenders awards are almost evenly shared by the European companies so neither a dominance of a company nor a dominance of a country has appeared. By analyzing Table 5.5, where waste management Construction Tenders funded by EU are illustrated, a leadership of Turkish companies is observed and the second largest share belongs to the Austrian Company STRABAG AG. Danish Companies take the first place and German Companies follow them for the waste water treatment Service Tenders funded by EU. As it can be seen from Table EH, award notices are shared by two of three German language speaking countries, Germany and Austria, and Turkish companies follow them. The case of Switzerland and Swiss companies for the EU funded tenders will be handled in the Section 6.3 and 7.

For public procurements, it has been mentioned that loans of Ilbank A.S. is another finance source for municipalities in addition to their own equity capital. The shareholders of the Ilbank A.S. are municipalities and special provincial administrations with a capital of 9 billion TL. Ilbank A.S. provides credit support to municipalities, dispensing not only the funds from shareholders’ equity, but also funds secured from international sources such as the World Bank, European Investment Bank (EIB) and Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) at an amount of 450 million Euros (see Section 6.4.). The tenders funded by Ilbank A.S. can be directly held by either Ilbank or by the municipality administration. Like the tenders funded by EU, the target of Ilbank A.S. funded tenders are planning and construction of waste management and waste water treatment facilities. After the construction, also operation and maintenance of waste management and waste water treatment facilities is done by the private sector (see Subsection 3.5.1.). The budget of these service tenders is not less than the cost for planning and construction. For the operation and maintenance services, prominent companies from Turkey received contracts, such as Kuzu Toplu Konut, Çevkom Mühendislik, MPE Mühendislik, Çevkom Mühendislik. In addition to these companies, the Austrian company Va Tech Wabag Gmbh is quite active in Public Procurement Tenders in Turkey. In order to give an idea to the readers, some selective tenders, held and granted by Public Procurement Authority (KIK) in 2012 and 2013, are shared in Table 5.8. Apart from planning, construction, operation and maintenance, municipalities also procure transportation services and supplies such as package waste water treatment facilities, pumps, odor control units, some consumables, etc. However, as compared to the main service and construction expenditures, budget of these procurements are quite low.

While the public sector is increasingly dealing only with planning, activities such as construction, operation and maintenance of transportation, storage, disposal and treatment of waste and waste water as well as recycling and waste-to-energy issues are entirely conducted by the private sector. However, a private company starting its activities in both recycling and the waste-toenergy area is subject to get a license from public authorities. Like all energy generation licenses, waste-to-energy licenses are also issued by the Energy Market Regulatory Board (EMRA). The full list of the companies which hold waste-to-energy license is indicated in the Table 3.8 in Subsection 3.4.2.Ortadoğu Enerji Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.Ş. and IT -KA Enerji Üretim San. Ve Tic. A.Ş. are the featured companies of this list. ITC-KA is a Swiss originated company, but today just 22% of the company belong to the Swiss partner.89 License of waste collection for recycling is granted by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization (MoEU). The licenses are granted according to the waste activity areas below:

Safe Waste Collection And Separation Hazardous Wastes o Cement plants uses waste as additional fuel o Hazardous waste recycling / disposal facilities Medical And Special Waste o Waste lube oil recycling facilities o Waste vegetable oil collection facilities o Used battery recycling facilities o Medical waste sterilization facilities o Recycling facilities for end of life tires o End of life tire temporary storage areas o Electrical and electronic waste processing companies accordance with the opinion Packaging Waste Collection / Separation And Recycling Facilities Transportation Companies and Vehicles o Medical waste transportation companies and vehicles o Hazardous waste transportation companies and vehicles o Waste vegetable oil transportation companies and vehicles o Used battery transportation companies and vehicles
Since the lists of licensed companies are quite long, they are not all placed in this report. The readers can access the full list of companies by visiting the website of the Department of Waste Management of MoEU.90
5.3. MARKET PRICING AND FUTURE TRENDS The CAPEX and OPEX involved with various technologies for energy production from waste are illustrated in Table 5.9.

CAPEX are the highest for incineration, and the lowest for landfill. Since the pyrolysis, gasification, pyrogasification and other thermo-chemical methods other than incineration are new technologies (i.e., not state-of-the art or proven technologies) and still in the development phase in Turkey and therefore are facing relative high technology and implementation risk, the variation in CAPEX is the highest among all technologies. In fact, there are only few initiatives, especially, in the agricultural waste-to-energy sector, where private investors are still looking for, testing and implementing several forms and combinations of pyrolysis / gasification methods. In contrast to the CAPEX figure, after landfill, which, as compared to other technologies, has a very low OPEX, the OPEX for incineration is lower than those for anaerobic digestion (AD) and pyrolysis / gasification. The OPEX for the latter two technologies are nearly in the same range. Since landfill and incineration technologies are rather state-of-the art and proven technologies in Turkey, the cost structure is not expected to change much in the future. In contrast, AD and in particular, pyrolysis / gasification technologies are rather non-state-of-the art and non-proven technologies, being exposed to a permanent innovation, technology improvement / development process and R&D. In addition to those factors, since the waste composition and characteristics in Turkey differ from other countries, AD and pyrolysis / gasification technologies have to be adjusted according to them. That’s’ why, especially, CAPEX of both AD and the pyrolysis / gasification is not expected to decrease in near future. However, since, as 90
http://atikyonetimi.cevreorman.gov.tr/atikyonetimi/AnaSayfa.aspx?sflang=tr .
87
compared to AD, pyrolysis / gasification technologies is its very beginning status in Turkey, and no number of significant project references are available, OPEX is expected to show such a relatively large range (i.e., deviation) also in the near future. Table 5.10 illustrates actual waste water charges for the two main customer types “residential and industrial / commercial” for selected Metropolitan Municipalities, which are primarily used to finance the waste water treatment facilities under BOT, PFI or outsourcing contracts (see Subsection 3.5.1.).

Metropolitan Municipalities’ waste water charges strongly differ among each other, being the lowest for Gaziantep and highest for Kocaeli. Except for Kocaeli, the difference between industrial / commercial and residential is up to three- or fourfold.96 Those increase their waste water charges in average 1-4 TL/m3 per month. The (Municipalities) municipalities actually charge between 0.5-10.0 TL/per subscriber monthly for waste collection and transportation services, and about 0.3-6.2 TL/per subscriber for waste disposal services. Dependent on new investments in innovation and technology development of solid waste management and waste-to-energy facilities, which are mostly under BOT contracts with private companies (see Subsection 3.5.1.), (Municipalities) municipalities are allowed to require up to a maximum amount of 2 TL/per subscriber more per month. In addition to charges for waste services and waste water treatment services, according to Municipality Law No. 5393 and Metropolitan Municipality Law No. 5216 (see Subsection 3.2.1.), (Municipalities) municipalities can additionally require an “Environmental Cleaning Tax” ( TV) which in absolute amount is mostly 10-50% of the waste water charges and could be used by (Municipalities) municipalities for financing their environmental services. As compared to a few years ago, CTV charges have increased. Therefore, they are very likely to increase in the future.

6. Turkish Market Opportunities 6.1. TRENDS AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS As analyzed and illustrated in previous Chapters and Sections, the main business trends within the waste management and waste water treatment industry are:
Expected population growth and the need for more municipal waste disposal and recovery as well as municipal waste water treatment facilities, Concrete targets of MoEU to establish more controlled landfills, modern waste bringing centers and dual-collection systems, Increased use of the waste-to-energy potential from municipal waste / waste water and industrial waste / waste water by application of various waste-to-energy technologies depending on the waste type and components, Increased use of the waste-to-energy potential from agriculture residues (straw waste, corn stalk, sunflower stalk, cotton stalk etc.) and manure (chicken and cow): o Purchase of the agricultural waste and operated by other companies (investors) than the farmers or o Farmers or farmer cooperatives utilize their own agricultural waste for an integrated waste management and biogas plant in within or near to their facility to use the produced heat and / or energy for internal purposes Going towards an integrated waste management approach, Increased use of advanced waste water treatment methods, Increasing awareness and business focus and of municipalities and the industries towards the implementation of the modern waste hierarchy… 1. Prevention, 2. Preparing for re-use, 3. Recycling, 4. Other recovery, 5. Disposal, Increasing recycling business, Additionally generating carbon credits from biogas producing waste management and waste water treatment projects, by reducing CO2 emissions and replacing fossil fuel by biogas as a renewable energy source, and thereby additionally improving the IRRS of the existing business cases by 2-4% (see Subsection 3.3.2.1.3.).
These trends will very likely hold in future, since there is an urgent need for improvement and extension of the waste management and waste water treatment services, methods and processes, significant population growth scenarios are expected and new upcoming attractive business concepts arising within the waste management and waste water treatment industry. For that purpose, companies could make use of the following actions in order to realize these business potentials:
Taking part in public tenders of municipal and Metropolitan waste management facilities, Taking part in public tenders of municipal and Metropolitan waste water treatment facilities, Cooperation with private companies for establishment industrial waste management facilities, Cooperation with private companies for establishment industrial waste water treatment facilities.
6.2. MARKET DEVELOPMENTS AND MARKET NICHES Although the electricity production from waste has become a quite popular and profitable business area, the same cannot be said about biofuels yet, representing a lucrative market niche. Turkish entrepreneurs mainly invested in biodiesel production from home-used waste oil and oil crops, but this business area has not been as profitable as expected yet, due to the high rate of special consumption tax; 98%97. Therefore, the special consumption tax rate of regular diesel and biodiesel are the same. 97
http://www.albiyobir.org.tr/trde_b2.htm
89
Furthermore, the law which obligates the usage of biodiesel originated from domestic sources was abolished in 25.06.2013. According to the law, biodiesel mixture rate would be 1% in 2014, 2% in 2105 and 3% by 2016. EMRA states that the reason behind this decision is the shortage of vegetable oil supply. 98 On the other hand, biofuel production from waste via gasification-Fischer Tropsch (second generation) is a virgin subject for Turkey and even though TUBITAK carries some researches for biofuel production from solid fossil fuels, there is no other activity carried out by private sector public authorities. However, according to EU regulations “The Renewable Energy Directive (RED) that followed set a target that 10% of all energy in the transport sector must come from renewable energy sources and the European Union also adopted sustainability criteria for biofuels to be counted towards that target.”99. As a result, since Turkey follows the environment directives of EU, it can be easily stated that the biofuel production will be a promising part of the market in the near future.
6.3. PROJECT STRUCTURES & KEY ISSUES In Section 5.2., procurement structures have been detailed according to the public and private investments related with finance resources. For public procurements, finance resource is a determinant on project structures and key issues, as well. Project structure and key issues of EU funded tenders In scope of EU tenders, technical assistance for planning and construction works is financed. Europe or Turkey originated companies are eligible for the EU tenders. This issue is placed in the contract notice of service and construction projects of EU tenders with the passage below: “...Participation is open to all legal persons participating either individually or in a grouping (consortium) of tenderers which are established in a Member State of the European Union or in a country or territory of the regions covered and/or authorised by the specific instruments applicable to the programme under which the contract is financed. All works, supplies and services under this contract must originate in one or more of these countries. Participation is also open to international organisations. The participation of natural persons is directly governed by the specific instruments applicable to the programme under which the contract is financed...”100 Even though, eligibility rule is common for service and construction tenders, the rest of the tendering, contracting and implementation structure differs and will be analysed separately. Selection criteria for the EU funded construction tenders include the subtitles below: 1. 2.
3. 4.
General Economic and financial capacity of the tenderer a. Annual Turnover b. Financial Resources c. Financial Position Technical and professional capacity a. Work Experience Criteria for a Joint Venture/Consortium
These subtitles are separately designed according to the structure of each tender. The award criterion is the lowest comparable price. Pre-financing varies per individual contract but shall not exceed 20%. Interim and balance payment vary, per individual contract, as well. The works are implemented under FIDIC Conditions of Contract for Plant and Design-Build (Yellow book).

90
Coming to the service tenders of EU funded projects, the selection criteria contain the subtitles below: 1. 2. 3.
Economic and financial capacity of candidate Professional capacity of candidate Technical capacity of candidate
As for construction projects, these subtitles are separately designed according to the structure of each tender. After first evaluation of the candidates, the tendering authority publishes a shortlist and only the companies listed in the shortlist receives the tender documents (Terms of Reference -ToR). The award criterion is the “best value for money�. Pre-financing is maximum 60% of the contract value and balance payment is maximum 40% of the contract value if pre-financing payment has been made. Additionally, up to 30% of subcontracting is allowed for the EU service tenders. The language of all EU tenders is English. Project structure and key issues of Public Procurement Authority (KIK) tenders In scope of the tenders, announced by the Public Procurement Authority, planning, construction, operation, maintenance, transportation and supplies are procured. Most of the tenders are only open to the domestic tenderers or up to 15% of price advantage is applied in the favour of domestic tenderers or products. However, especially operation and maintenance of waste water treatment facilities of metropolitan municipalities and featured procurements related with radioactive waste management and medical waste management are open to foreign tenderers as well as local ones. In general, for such procurements, no price advantage is applied in favor of domestic tenderers. Selection criteria of public procurement tenders are: 1.
2.
Economic and financial capacity of the tenderer a. Annual Turnover b. Financial Resources c. Financial Position Technical and professional capacity a. Organizational structure and staff availability(construction tenders)
Each criterion is separately designed according to the structure of each tender. The award criterion is the lowest comparable price. Application of pre-financing is very seldom. For the service and construction tenders, progress payments are made monthly according to the progress report. For supply tenders, 100%of the payment is made after provisional acceptance. The language of all Public Procurement Authority tenders is Turkish. Project structure and key issues of Private Sector Procurements Private sector mainly deals with waste-to-energy and recycling issues of waste management subjects and small waste water treatment facilities due to the legal obligations. Even though the first entrants to waste-to-energy and recycling sector use their own technology or collaborate with the foreign technology suppliers, the companies which recently planned to invest in these areas looking for solutions with best return for their money. That is, they are ready to pay for technologies which are most suitable for their financial capacity. In the same way, since the investment is due to the legal obligations, companies are looking for the cheapest solutions which meet the minimum requirements. AS compared to the ones in the public sector, private sector procurements do not require complicated procedures. Related with the size of the company, partners or purchase department of the company collect the quotations from technology suppliers and evaluate according to their needs and budget. However, especially for the product supply, required documentation related with the TSE standards and rules of Ministry of Economy (MoE) should be clarified according to the custom tariff number of the product before the export operation get started.

6.4. AVAILABLE GRANTS AND INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES Figure 6.1 depicts the existing finance sources for investments in the waste management and waste water treatment industry in Turkey.
Figure 6.1: Existing finance sources
General Budget of the Central Administration General Budget of the Central Administration incorporates the equity financing source directly provided by governmental institutions or Ministries such as the State Water Authority (DSI), the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization etc. Waste management and waste water treatment projects to be financed by the General Budget and mandated / granted to the private sector are tendered by public tender processes. Budget of Local Authorities Budget of Local Authorities refers to the financing source directly provided by local governmental-administrative institutions such as equity financing by municipalities or bank loans provided by Ilbank A.S and governmental development agencies with more favorable terms and conditions, as compared to commercial banks. Waste management and waste water treatment projects to be financed by the budget of municipalities and mandated / granted to the private sector are tendered by tender processes of municipalities. Equity returns of municipalities are guaranteed by Law No. 2464 “Municipal Revenues” (see Section 5.4.). Loans provided by international financial institutions External loans to Local Authorities are provided by international financial sources such as World Bank, the European Investment Bank (EIB), European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), International Finance Corporation (IFC), or within the framework of inter-governmental agreements such as the German Investment and Development Bank (KfW) or Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC). International financial institutions are very excited to provide loans for investment in Turkey in order to fulfill its targeted EU environmental acquis. Some important loans actually provided by international financial institutions are:
TurSEFF101 TurSEFF is a credit line developed by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) providing loans of a total of USD 265 million through seven Turkish banks (Akbank, Denizbank, Isbank, Vakifbank, Yapi Kredi)
101 http://www.turseff.org/en
92
for SME sized industrial companies and commercial enterprises that wish to invest in renewable energy, waste-toenergy or energy efficiency projects
MidSEFF102 MidSEFF is a credit line developed by EBRD with support from the European Investment Bank (EIB) and European Commission (EU), providing loans of a total of EUR 975 million through seven Turkish banks (Akbank, Denizbank, Finansbank, Garanti, Isbank, Vakifbank, Yapi Kredi) for on-lending to private sector borrowers, for financing midsize investments in renewable energy, waste-to-energy and industrial energy efficiency
Clean Technology Fund (CTF)103 The Clean Technology Fund (CTF), which is one of the Climate Investment Funds (CIF), having a size of USD 5.2 billion provides middle income countries with resources to explore options to scale up the demonstration, deployment, and transfer of low-carbon, clean technologies.
Grants provided by the EU Turkey benefits from financial assistance (i.e., “General Budget of the EU”) provided by the EU during its EU accession process. EU funds support investment projects by meeting the project costs no more than 75%, while the remaining portion is provided from national sources (i.e., “National ontribution”). Both General Budget of the EU and National Contribution are collected in the National Fund Center of the Undersecretariat of Treasury. EU funded projects with regard to construction and supervision is performed by the Central Finance and Contracts Unit (CFCU) of the Prime Ministry (see Section 5.2.). It is possible for Ilbank A.S. to provide the National Contribution for municipalities and act as a guarantor. In order to make use of the financial assistance during Turkey’s pre-accession process, the IPA (Instrument for Pre-Accession) program as a new mechanism has been established. Within the IPA framework, CFCU has been provided with transferred personnel from MoEU, in the short-run in order to execute the tendering, contracting and payments processes of environmental projects provided with financial assistance. However, MoEU is in the development process to establish a structure these works in the mediumand long-run. International grant-type R&D funding programs Since national grant-type and credit loan-type funding programs provided by existing national funding providers such as TTGV, KOSGEB, development agencies etc. are designed and applied only for the financial support of Turkish companies’ R&D and/or business activities and initiatives, they are rather out of scope for Swiss companies, unless the latter establish a local subsidiary in Turkey under Turkish business law. In contrast, international grant-type funding programs are only valid for Turkish companies if they form an international R&D cooperation with at least one foreign partner. That is, a Turkish company is only allowed to apply for grants from an international funding program together with at least one designated foreign partner. Hence, international grant-type funding programs in Turkey are appropriate for Swiss-Turkish cooperation in the waste management and waste treatment industry. The international grant-type R&D funding programs are coordinated by The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜBITAK)104 as a central point of contact to universities, research centers and institutes, MoSIT and technoparks. Actually, there are three international grant-type R&D funding programs which could be used for Swiss-Turkish cooperation and initiatives in the Turkey’s waste management and waste treatment sector: The various EUREKA, Eurostars or EU FP7 programs. In all these programs, a bilateral or multilateral R&D cooperation between institutions from two or more different countries and the creation of only market-oriented and in the short-term marketable products, processes and services are a prerequisite. Whereas compared to EUREKA programs and Eurostars, EU FP7 shows a higher intensity of research, EUREKA programs contain the relatively highest proximity-to-market among the three program types. EUREKA programs are assessed by national authorities and contain national funding, Eurostars is assessed by international authorities and contains national funding and, EU FP7 is assessed by international authorities and contains international funding.

93
For EUREKA, there exists a specific funding instrument at TÜBITAK where the project funding amount is unlimited. OPET does not have a specific funding instrument for EUREKA. Therefore, funding for a EUREKA project from Swiss side is always provided in combination with the national funding instrument of the corresponding governmental institution. For Eurostars, TÜBITAK as well as OPET has specific funding instruments. Whereas the project financing for the Turkish part is unlimited, the Swiss part sets a cap at EUR 600’000 per project. For EU FP7, where funding comes directly from EU, there is no upper limit in project financing. In Turkey, the funding rates and amounts for EUREKA or Eurostars, compared to other countries, are quite high, resulting in a further mobilization potential of Turkish institutions for Swiss-Turkish cooperation. Investments from Public-Private Sector Cooperation Funds are provided by a joint venture structure between (a) public institution(s) and (a) private company(ies) where mainly build-operate-trade (BOT) agreements are set up, where the private company(ies) after the establishment of the facility is (are) contractually guaranteed to operate the facility on its (their) behalf for fixed determined years, in order to generate return for their investments (see Subsection 3.5.1.). Investments from the Private Sector Funds are provided by traditional equity, debt or mezzanine financing of private companies such as (large) direct investors, institutional investors or funds (see Subsection 3.5.2). Tables 6.1-6.2 contain the investment needs for the waste management and waste water treatment sector, broken down to financial resources, according to UCES 2007-2023.

Source: Author’s own calculations based on EU integrated environmental approximation strategy for Turkey (UCES) (2007 - 2023)
For the period 2007-2023, the total investment needs for the waste management sector amounts to 9.6 bn EUR, those for the waste water treatment industry 18.1 bn EUR, while both sectors face a steady increase. Since for both waste management and waste water treatment services, municipalities and Metropolitan municipalities are solely responsible for their conduction or subcontracting to third parties, the majority of financing will be through their own resources (equity), whereas the rest will be, by a large extent through the governmental development and investment bank Ilbank A.S., or external credit loans. The central administration (i.e., government) supports projects which have high external benefits and are applied at governmentally special environmental protection areas (SEPA). Funds from EU or other grant-type mechanisms cover about 35% and 40% of the total investments needed for the waste water treatment sector and waste management, respectively. These have significantly increased between 2010 and 2011, and are expected to be the major financing source for the waste management sector from 2018, and for the waste water treatment sector from 2020.
6.5. SWOT ANALYSIS FOR SWISS FIRMS IN TURKEY Table 6.3 contains a SWOT analysis for Swiss firms targeting the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment market.
95
Table 6.3: SWOT analysis for Swiss firms
STRENGTHS Swiss companies are able to supply High-Cleantech products, services and processes. High innovation, R&D and technology transfer potential. Swiss companies have a strong financial capacity and higher access to financiers, private equity funds and other financial institutes due to their relative high concentration in Switzerland. Strong entrepreneurship. Switzerland has a high quality label. Strong project design and management skills. Existence of advanced and innovative waste management and waste water treatment methods Existence of dynamic product lines, rather than a single product OPPORTUNITIES Favourable existing and future regulatory drivers and framework. Favourable existing and future market conditions. Turkey is in its early ages in terms of waste management and waste water treatment investments. Financial G2G agreements are possible. Turkish companies’ attitude is quite positive towards collaboration with Swiss companies. The Turkish market has high Swiss quality awareness. The educational level and number of qualified local people is increasing, therefore implying the raising existence of locally available qualified engineers, advisors and project managers as well as construction and manufacturing companies. High competition in the home market for HighCleantech products implies for Swiss companies a continuous holding of the high quality standards and comparative advantage against other countries.
96
WEAKNESSES Swiss companies have high production costs due to: - Expensive labour costs in Switzerland, - Expensive building and construction costs in Switzerland, - High costs for machinery and equipment in Switzerland, due to their mainly production in Switzerland, - High rentals in Switzerland, - Additional transportation costs from Switzerland to Turkey. Swiss companies have high production O&M costs. Swiss companies are not able to response to technical issues in a short time interval. Switzerland is not a member of the EU. THREATS Turkish Public Procurement Law allows the tendering authorities to restrict bidding of foreign companies or to apply up to 15% of price advantage in the favour of domestic tenderers or products. Turkish companies would like to know estimated total cost even before the feasibility studies. Potential G2G agreement proposals from other countries that may restrict bidding of Swiss companies. As compared to other countries, such as Germany, still reluctant and hesitating attitude towards the Turkish business environment. Foreign companies increasingly see the business potential in the production of machinery and equipment with regard waste management and waste water treatment and thus are entering into JVs / partnerships with manufacturing companies or establish their own subsidiaries and manufacturing plants in Turkey.
6.6. EVENT MARKETING OPPORTUNITIES If Swiss companies want to enter the Turkish waste management and waste water treatment market and make use of Turkey’s huge market potential and dynamics by establishing new partnerships, business networks, solutions and marketing and sales channels in Turkey, where “energy” and “environment” and their related sub-sectors and (sub-) technology areas will always be on policy’s main strategic agenda, the resulting benefits arising from any project type, business case and / or R&D initiative could highly exceed its occurring costs. Therefore, as a first important business step, Swiss companies can make use of event marketing opportunities by participating in upcoming events in Turkey with regard to waste management and waste water treatment to show presence and establish business contacts, which could result in lucrative business cooperation and investment opportunities. All the events in 2013 related with waste management and waste water treatment are listed in the tables below.

7. Market Entry Strategies In previous sections, it has been mentioned that the waste management and waste water treatment industry is still in its early ages and requires more expenditure and investments. That is, this development phase contains remarkable opportunities for the firms which are active in these sectors. However, from Swiss companies’ point of view, not being member of the EU, some obstacles in the Turkish Public Procurement Law to the disadvantage of foreign tenderers, comparatively high production costs due to the socioeconomic difference between Turkey and Switzerland are the main issues with regard to the entrance in the Turkish market. In the following, some relevant market entry strategies according to the investment and finance resources will be highlighted. Firstly, public procurements will be handled according to the finance resources. Except for government expenditures, the EU is the main fund supplier of waste management and waste water treatment investments. However, in Section 6.3., it has been mentioned that Swiss companies are not eligible to bid for the tenders funded by the EU. In order to overcome this obstacle, Swiss companies have to found a daughter company in an EU member country or in Turkey. This is the way some US companies have followed for years. Moreover, instead of an EU member country, founding a daughter company in Turkey could be more advantageous once Turkish Public Procurement Law is considered. It should be noted that Turkish companies are allowed to bid for the EU tenders held in other countries. Turkish Public Procurement Law allows the tendering authorities to restrict bidding of foreign companies or up to 15% of price advantage is applied in the favour of domestic tenderers or products. Additionally, some TSE quality standards for management and products and technical service presence are required to be able to bid for some public tenders. For private investments, especially the recycling, waste-to-energy and waste water treatment facilities, regulated by the Turkish laws, represent the main business opportunities for Swiss companies. The crucial points to seize these opportunities are brand awareness, optimum price/quality ratio and short response time of technical service. For starters, brand awareness can be created via sending online or hard copy brochures/fliers, phone calling and direct emailing to the potential investors. In order to find potential investors, a Swiss Company should follow up the list of the granted electricity production licenses published by EMRA for waste-to-energy projects, waste handling licences published by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization for recycling projects and investment incentive certificates announced via Official Gazette for the waste water treatment projects. Unfortunately, the expensive labour force and rental cost in Switzerland, as compared to the Turkish market, heavily affects the saleability of Swiss solutions and products in the Turkish market, although they are of much better quality than those of its competitors. Partial production of some equipment in Turkey could be of help for Swiss companies to decrease costs, while keeping the quality level high. Shifting some production line to Turkey provides a price advantage for the marketing activities and sales of Swiss companies in other countries. Although the labour costs in Turkey are higher than in Asian Countries, its close location to Europe, Africa and rich Arab countries make its location advantageous in terms of low transportation costs and short delivery time. No investor would like to stop his business activities for a long times due to breakdowns. However, this is an inevitable result if a technical service location is too far from the investment location. Therefore, short response time of technical service will place the solution/product provider a few steps ahead of his competitors. This requires localized technical service infrastructure or local partnership. All the entry strategies in the Turkish market explained above, could be onerous for some suppliers and solution providers. However, it should be noted that the investments to be realized are much more than the investments which are hitherto realized in Turkey until now.

8. Conclusion The goal of this study was to analyze and assess the current situation in the waste management and waste water treatment market in Turkey and make an outlook with regard to future developments in these markets. Today, in Turkey, about the half of the population of 73.7 Mio is still not served with waste disposal / recovery and waste water treatment services. Moreover, 44% of the municipal solid waste is still dumped into open dumping sites of municipalities, therefore implying the release of the very potent greenhouse gas methane into the atmosphere and incorporating explosion risk of sites. On average, only about 24% of the industrial waste water discharged is treated. Turkey’s objective of the EU accession and thus shaping all of its waste management and waste water treatment regulations and policies towards a harmonization with EU’s standards, the various strategic plans of ministries, Turkey’s economic growth forecasts, the raising awareness in the industry for an integrated waste management approach, the waste-to-energy concept, various expected population growth scenarios and many other lucrative factors will lead to a substantial growth of both the municipal and industrial waste management and waste water treatment industry in the future. Hence, based on these analyses and positive market trends, potential investment and cooperation opportunities for Swiss companies within these industries have been highlighted. Moreover, a comprehensive SWOT analysis and concrete recommendations for business and marketing strategies have been provided, showing how Swiss companies could enter into these lucrative industries. Thereby, the main business potentials, which, at the same time incorporate the comparative business advantages of Swiss companies in the increasing Turkish waste management and waste water treatment industry are their project management competence as well as the supply and technology transfer of their High-Cleantech products, processes and services. Consequently, in order to optimally make use of these lucrative Swiss-Turkish business and cooperation potentials in the waste management and waste water treatment industry, the participation in events as well as the launch of joint initiatives are essential.
