Yeşil_İz Climate Crises and European Green Deal Monitoring Center

Yeşil_İz Climate Crisis and European Green Deal Monitoring Center established under a TÜBİTAK project called “European Green Deal: Threats and Opportunities for Turkey, Internationally Extensive and Dynamic General Balance Analysis” coordinated by Prof. Dr. Alp Erinç Yeldan from the Department of Economics.

This project supported by TÜBİTAK ARDEB 1001 Program will continue for three years. However, it is anticipated that the acceleration to be created by the project and, the findings planned to be obtained would bring the effects far beyond this schedule. Within the scope of this project, the Yeşil_İz Platform aims to: 

• Monitor the strategy of the European Green Deal (EGD) strategy and, the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) expected to be commissioned as the key element of this strategy within the historical development thereof;
• Analyze the expected effects of the commodity chains to be created after the CBAM on the international job sharing of the EGD;
• Examine the position of the Emerging Market Economies that are the competitors of Turkey in global economic competition and, carry out an analysis on the threats and opportunities that the Turkish industries may face during this global competition;
• Monitor the medium-long term macroeconomic effects of the practices of the EGD and the CBAM on the whole of the Turkish economy; 
• Discuss the possible adverse effects adaptation mechanisms to be created by the actions and policies of Turkey towards the EGD process on the growth and emission paths of the EU;
• Study on the costs and potential benefits of the EGD on the Turkish financial businesses;
• Highlight the urgency of the green transformation for the economy of Turkey with the engagement of all the respective stakeholders.
