Hydroelectricity is a critical source of energy in Turkey and substantial amounts can be generated due to its mountainous landscape and position between three seas. The main river basins are the Euphrates ((トルコ語:Fırat)) and Tigris ((トルコ語:Dicle)). Turkey has built many dams, and hydroelectric power plants can now generate about 23GW.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hydropower.org/country-profiles/turkey )〕 The many projects currently in progress, such as the Southeastern Anatolia Project, total another 15GW.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hydroworld.com/articles/print/volume-22/issue-5/features/reaching-for-turkey-s-hydropower-summit.html )〕 The energy policy of Turkey supports hydropower. Some dams in Turkey are controversial.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.hurriyetdailynews.com/Default.aspx?pageID=238&nid=44231 )〕 However it is claimed that hydropower can be expanded without damaging the environment == History == The first hydroelectric plant in Turkey was constructed at Tarus in 1902. This plant only produced 60KW, but nonetheless was a great technical achievement for the country. In later years there were many more projects including: Seyhan, Sariyer, Hirfanli, Kesikkopru, Demirkopru, and Kemer. These projects were either dams or hydroelectric power plants and by 1940 there were a total of 28 hydroelectric power plants in Turkey. After the State Hydraulic Works (DSI) was established in 1954 projects were better funded and the power produced per year was greatly increased. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hydroelectricity in Turkey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
