Greenhouse
emissions are increasing rapidly in Turkey. The solution seems to be a focus on
developing clean energy in areas such as domestic renewable sources. The
incentive is that a guaranteed price for power produced by these methods may be
offered, especially if the equipment used to develop clean energy is locally
produced.

The
proposed rates for the powered generated is seven euro cents a kilowatt hour
for hydroelectric produced energy and 16 euro cents for tidal power. People who
use turbines from local materials can see an additional 3 euro per kilowatt
hour.
$600
millon has already been approved for the Project in Turkey.
Monetary incentives sure are a great way to get people involved in clean energy, but the local aspect of what Turkey has proposed is great in gaining interest of the locals. The materials are local and the jobs in building those materials probably are as well.
While this article focuses on Turkey, you can also do part by seeing if there is any alternative energy programs in your area. An example of one such program can be found in Portland, Oregon.
