Abstract :Energy is one of the most important factors affecting the country's economy in developing countries. Factors such as interdependent relations, external dependence in primary energy sources such as natural gas and oil, international treaties to reduce carbon emissions, and the amount and availability of domestic conventional resources lead countries to renewable energy sources. In this study, the production sources and sectoral consumption places of the electric energy in Ankara in 2019 were examined. In addition, the share of renewable energy sources in production has been investigated. Economic and environmental analysis of electric energy consumption has been made. As a result, it was determined that 9.55 TWh of electricity was produced in 2019, and this value meets 68% of the 14 TWh consumption value.
