Yenilenebilir Enerji Teşvikleri ve Türkiye İçin Gelecekteki Etkileri: Karşılaştırmalı Bibliyometrik Analiz

Many countries are using incentives to increase domestic and renewable energy (RE) production, which is important for sustainable development and meeting the rising demand for energy. This also helps achieve zero-carbon emission goals and reduces dependency on foreign sources. Countries have made progress using renewable energy with provided incentives. Along with political and economic regulations, scientific research is crucial in raising public awareness to foster innovation. Through academic studies on renewable energy and policy, countries can create better policies and investments while promoting environmental awareness for a sustainable future. A comparative analysis of academic outputs on incentives and policies for green energy is important. This research examines the link between RE use and academic production. To this end, a bibliometric analysis of scientific publications from Turkey, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy was employed to understand the current state policies and suggest future studies. The academic studies that were compiled with the keywords in the RE policies and measures in the Web of Science database have revealed that academic productions increase quantitatively as RE investments increase. The thematic analysis shows that the maturity in RE use is also reflected in scientific research.
