Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 11Wind-Solar Site Selection Using a Gis-Mcdm Approach With an Application in Kayseri Province/Turkey(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2021) Genç, Mustafa Serdar; Karipoğlu, FatihRenewable and sustainable energy sources such as wind, biomass, geothermal and solar are defined as a less harmfully to environment than other fossil fuels reserves. At the last decade, the demand of energy because of the rising of industrialization and population is increasing in Turkey. Thus, investments on renewable energy sources especially wind and solar energy systems are increasing rapidly because of unlicensed energy production legislation published by Turkish Ministry of Energy and Natural Sources. Although Turkey has high solar and wind capacity, there has not been develop a tool to determine the suitable regions for hybrid energy systems. In this study, geographical information systems (GIS) and Multi-criteria-base method (MCDM) are used to determine the suitable regions for wind-solar hybrid energy systems of Kayseri Province under potential and environmental impacts. The results shows (2.080 km2) %12.3 of Kayseri is suitable for hybrid energy system investment. © 2021 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 3Green Smart Cities: Living Healthily With Every Breath(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019) Turhan, Cihan; Atalay, Ali Serdar; Gökçen Akkurt, GüldenFifty-four percent of the world's population lives in big cities and it is projected to increase to nearly 70% by 2050s. Rapid and dense urbanization leads to smart cities which improve the quality of lives of the citizens. Therefore, development of smart cities is becoming vital. The quality of the citizens is affected by many factors including poor air quality, increased pollutants and microclimates called urban heat islands. The URBAN GreenUP project, initiated in June 2017, is a project funded under the European Union's Horizon 2020 programme. The main objective of the project is the development, application and replication of re-naturing Urban Plans in a number of European cities. In this study, measurement of nature-based solutions for mitigation of urban heat island effect and improvement of air quality for Urban GreenUP project in Izmir, will be introduced.
