Technology Development Foundation of Turkey (TTGV), Green Technology Projects (YETEP) with the support of industry associations by climate-friendly technologies, clean production technologies and energy efficiency, providing renewable energy and the implementation of pay financial support to their projects carried out in other energy technologies. The deadline for applications is 31 October 2019.
Aim and Goal of Support
With the support of Green Technology Projects (YETEP), it is aimed to support the practices aiming to increase the environmental performance of industrial enterprises and decrease production costs and thus increase their competitiveness. In these projects, it is aimed to indirectly encourage the development/production of such technologies with local opportunities and resources by giving priority to local technologies.
Support Scope
Green Technology Projects Support consists of three different support areas: “Climate-Friendly Technologies Support”, “Cleaner Production Technologies Support” and “Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy and Other Energy Technologies Support”.
The main objective of Climate-Friendly Technologies Support is climate-friendly, energy-efficient, reliable and proven to reduce the use and emission of gases with high global warming potential (GWP) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), especially used in the cooling industry. is to support projects for the implementation of domestic and innovative technologies for the use of alternatives.
The main purpose of Cleaner Production Technologies Support is clean production, which includes technological innovation for minimum energy, water, raw material consumption and minimum waste generation in the production processes, with technological innovation for production efficiency within the framework of resource efficiency (eco-efficiency / cleaner production / sustainable production). Supporting projects for the development, realization and commercialization of technologies and applications.
Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy and Other Energy Technologies The main objective of Support, Turkey in the face of rising energy prices on the world, especially energy to protect the competitive power-intensive industries, the foreign dependency and greenhouse to ensure the reduction of gas emissions, increase energy efficiency in industrial applications and use of renewable energy is also supporting projects for the development and realization of domestic and innovative technologies that produce fuel and energy from waste, with environmentally friendly technology practices in energy production and use.
Industrial organizations can apply for projects for their projects involving one or more of these areas. In projects, the use of domestic technology and equipment and advanced technology (materials, electronics, software, etc.) are among the priorities of TTGV and it is aimed to support applications with innovative dimensions.
Sub-topics, application areas and examples related to the support areas are included in the YETEP Support Program Scope document in the Detailed Information section below.
General Application Conditions
Residing in Turkey, operating in the same field for at least 3 years, organizations are able to apply to the program.
Applications are accepted until the end of the project application period.
Before applying for a project, it would be useful for organizations to contact TTGV directly and receive guidance.
Support Conditions and Duration
The project support period is maximum of 15 (fifteen) months.
The project support budget lower limit is $ 100,000 and the upper limit is $ 400,000.
Project start date is accepted as the first day of the month following the application deadline or later. Projects that have already started are evaluated on the basis of the deadline.
In projects to be supported, only up to 50% of machine/equipment expenses (excluding VAT) and TTGV support up to 50% of the expenditure expenses (excluding VAT) are covered by TTGV. Other types of expenses (personnel, transportation, construction, etc.) within the scope of the project belong to the Executive Partner.
Guarantee letters and / or KGF (Credit Guarantee Fund) guarantee are obtained from the proposing organizations who want to benefit from the Green Technology Projects Support, as assurance during the use of the support. In addition, joint debtor joint guarantor signatures of the major partners of the proposed organization may also be requested.
Project Evaluation
TTGV’s project evaluation period is approximately 3 months from the deadline.
The projects proposed in this 3-month period are evaluated by TTGV and by Field Committee Members consisting of independent experts on behalf of TTGV.
The organization proposing the project is visited by TTGV and / or Field Committee Members at the place where the project will be conducted during the evaluation process.
The evaluation fee of 1.000 USD per project, which is decided to be sent to the Field Committee Members, is paid to TTGV by the organization that proposed the project before the visit.
Project Monitoring and Support
A Support Agreement is signed with the company for projects that are worth supporting by the TTGV Board of Directors.
Project Monitor is appointed by TTGV.
Companies that sign the Project Support Agreement can request prepayment.
Expenditures are made by the company according to the scope specified in the Project Proposal File and reported to TTGV and the Project Audience.
The amount of the service fee, which corresponds to 3% of TTGV support, is deducted for each payment to be made regarding the support expenses.
Project Finalization
When the project is completed, the Project Result Report is prepared by the executive partner and submitted for the approval of the TTGV and the audience. The amount of support provided by TTGV is 6 (six) months, within a total of 24 (twenty-four) months from the project’s first 6 (six) month grace period, and 6 (six) months after the completion of the project period in the contract. and in 5 (five) equal instalments are paid back to TTGV in US dollars
