Abstract

Increasing environmental pollution concerns are one of the agenda items of the whole world. In this context, studies are being carried out to increase renewable energy, reduce fossil fuel consumption, and reach a carbon neutral target. One of the steps taken towards becoming carbon neutral is carbon footprint studies. Many studies are being carried out in the world and in EU countries to reduce carbon footprint. The most important of these are; European Green Agreement, Emission Trading System, Fit for 55 package, Renewable energy investments, carbon footprint monitoring and limitation methods, individual and institutional awareness studies. In this study conducted in line with the targets of carbon footprint monitoring and limitation, the carbon footprint of an example industrial facility was calculated and it was determined that the majority of this footprint was due to electrical consumption, and renewable energy applications that could reduce this electrical consumption were determined.
