EMPOWERING 100 WOMEN ENTREPRENEURS WITH CLEAN ENERGY SOLUTIONS POST-EARTHQUAKE
The project, funded by the Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI), is being implemented in collaboration with Türkiye’s leading business associations in their respective fields — the Federation of Sectoral Associations (SEDEFED) and the Energy Efficiency and Management Association (EYODER) — as well as Women in Renewable Energy (WiRE).
The Canada Fund for Local Initiatives (CFLI) provides modest funding for small-scale but high-impact projects in over 120 countries eligible for official development assistance. Our project will have a significant impact in the following areas: Women, Entrepreneurship, Sustainable Energy, Regional Development, and Economic Recovery.
The project, covering the provinces of Adana, Hatay, Gaziantep, Kahramanmaraş, and Şanlıurfa, is being implemented between August 15, 2024, and February 21, 2025, and includes both in-person and online workshops, capacity-building activities, and mentoring seminars.
Our goal is to equip women entrepreneurs with the knowledge and skills necessary to adopt clean energy solutions, thereby contributing to sustainable development in their communities. Among these women, regional goodwill ambassadors have also been selected.
Through this initiative, we aim to establish sustainable and innovative collaborations between Canadian companies and local SMEs. We hope that these efforts will also inspire other regions affected by the earthquake.
Together, we are working toward a sustainable future for Türkiye, aiming to increase women’s participation in economic recovery efforts.

DEVELOPMENT OF COMMUNICATION AND DATA SHARING NETWORK AMONG ENERGY EFFICIENCY STAKEHOLDERS PROJECT
It is a project implemented between 2019 and 2020 aiming to bring together energy efficiency stakeholders, enhance collaboration, strengthen association capacity, and enable more active participation in policy and decision-making processes.
FACILITEE
It was carried out between 2021 and 2022 under the leadership of EYODER in partnership with EHAE (Energy Law and Research Institute) and FEDERESCO (Federazione Nazionale delle Esco /Italian Association of ESCOs) with the objectives of establishing cooperation among NGOs operating in the field of energy efficiency in Türkiye and EU countries, elevating existing Energy Efficiency Services (EVD) companies to the level of ESCOs worldwide and enhancing their institutional capacities, promoting the widespread use of Energy Performance Contracts (EPC) that pay for themselves through energy efficiency, and fostering expertise and collaboration in the field of energy efficiency.
AN OVERVIEW DOCUMENT FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN TÜRKİYE
A position paper prepared by EYODER for the German Energy Agency DENA, providing a general overview of energy efficiency in Türkiye as of 2022.
TEVMOT
The TEVMOT Project, in which EYODER is contributer, is a project aimed at promoting energy-efficient motors in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Türkiye. Replacing inefficient electric motors used in industry with highly energy-efficient motors marks the beginning of a significant transformation that will contribute to the Turkish economy by saving 34 billion kWh of energy annually.
NEW GENERATION
The NEW GENERATION Project, carried out between 2017 and 2018 and in which EYODER participated, aims to contribute to the renovation efforts for low-energy buildings and the transfer of energy efficiency culture to future generations by preparing a guide for educators in vocational and technical schools.
