In this study, biogas and energy potential of animal wastes belonging to Bingöl province was investigated. The study in question was based on data from the Bingöl Governorship Provincial Directorate of Agriculture and Forestry for the years 2002-2020. It has been determined that a total of 14 million 87 thousand 588 tons of manure that can be produced from animal waste between 2002 and 2020, assuming that all of this manure will be used in biogas production, a total biogas potential of 650 million 292 thousand 746 m³ and the total amount of energy to be obtained in the said years will be approximately 3057 GWh. In addition, the average of the data for the years 2002-2020 was evaluated in order to reveal the annual average biogas and energy production. Considering the distribution of biogas energy by districts, it is understood that Karlıova district plays an important role with a share of 31%. According to 2020 data, it is seen that 73,8% of the 303,7 GWh electricity consumed can be met by biogas energy. Especially in our province, it is obvious that the establishment of biogas facilities on district basis and utilizing this potential will decrease our dependency on foreign energy.
In this study, biogas and energy potential of animal wastes belonging to Bingöl province was investigated. The study in question was based on data from the Bingöl Governorship Provincial Directorate of Agriculture and Forestry for the years 2002-2020. In the lightof 18 years of data, it has been determined that annualy 741.452 tons of manure can be obtained from an average of948.144 animals, and 34.225.934 m3of biogas can be obtained from this manure, also 161GWh of energy per year can be obtained from this biogas. If these animal wastes were evaluated in the said years, a total of 2898 GWh energy would have been obtained. In addition the evalueting data for 2020 it is understood that the biogas potential installation power of Bingöl province is 25.6 MW. Considering the distribution of biogas energy by districts, it is understood that Karlıova district plays an important role with a share of 31% in total power potantial. According to 2020 datas only it is seen that 73.8% of the 303.7 GWh electricity consumed can be met by biogas energy. In addition, according to turkey statistics institute data of 2020 total potential power of Bingöl and its neighboring provinces Diyarbakır, Elazığ, Erzurum, Erzincan, Muş and Tunceli is calculated as 298MW. However, it is understood that only 2.6% of this power (Equal to 7.63MW) is used currently.So it is obvious that the establishment of biogas facilities in related regions will decrease country’s dependency on foreign energy.
