On November 1, 2024, the Geothermal Power Plant Investors Association (Jeotermal Elektik Santral Yatirimcilari Dernegi / JESDER) Chairman Mr. Ufuk Sentürk and Board Member Mr. Muharrem Durmus visited the Deputy Director General of Mining and Petroleum Affairs, Mr. Mehmet Ali Özen, and Head of Sector Monitoring and Coordination, Mr. Burak Serin, in their offices in Türkiye. During the visit, consultations were held on the Draft Law on Geothermal Resources and Natural Mineral Waters.
The Board conveyed the sector’s requests and evaluations to the authorities regarding topics seen as beneficial to include or exclude from the Draft. Through these discussions, JESDER contributed to the legislative work by representing the needs and expectations of the geothermal energy sector. The Draft Law will be shaped with the completion of these consultations and the process.
