Renewable Energy Research and Application Center

Hello, I am Dr. Fuat KILIÇ, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical-Electronics Engineering at Balıkesir University. I also serve as the director of the Renewable Energy Research and Application Center at our institution. The Renewable Energy Research and Application Center has been actively operating since 2017. Our center is engaged in practical, research, and educational studies related to solar energy systems, wind energy systems, electricity generation from biogas, and energy storage systems. Within the Renewable Energy Research and Application Center, a European Union project is being conducted in collaboration with Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University and the South Marmara Development Agency, focusing on wind energy systems, solar energy systems, and biogas. In this EU project, 240 engineers and 240 technicians will receive training and become employed in this field upon completion of their training. Additionally, we participate in various competitions with our students in research and application activities. We take part in events such as Teknofest and other national competitions. Furthermore, our academic work continues with ongoing research, application, and educational activities. Public institutions, private sector organizations, and our students can benefit from our Renewable Energy Research and Application Center. Our advice to prospective students who will benefit from our center is to improve their foreign language skills, establish connections with civil society organizations, participate in Teknofest competitions, and engage in extensive reading in this field. I wish all student candidates success in their university entrance exams. I invite everyone to Balıkesir University's Renewable Energy Research and Application Center.
