The Energy Efficiency Law requires certain energy users to report their energy consumption to the General Directorate of Electrical Power Resources, Survey and Development Administration (EIE) in order to monitor energy efficiency. These obligations apply to:
- Industrial establishments consuming more than 1000 toe;
- Power plants which have minimum 100 MW installed capacity;
- Commercial or service buildings which have minimum 20,000 m2 construction area or 500 toe energy consumption in a year; and
- Public buildings which have minimum 10,000 m2 construction area or 250 toe energy consumption in a year.
For this purpose, the EIE has set up an energy use database known as the "Energy Efficiency Portal", which provides effective information flow, produces reliable projections, provides education and creates awareness in order to disseminate and increase the effectiveness of energy efficiency studies in 2007.
As of October 2008, industrial plants consuming over 50 000 toe have had to establish energy management units, as do organised industrial zones. They also have to report on their energy consumption and management activities to EIE.
The Energy Information and Technology Management Center (EBITEM) project will assess improvements, make plans, increase awareness and contribute to timely decision-making and implementation.
The related "Measurement and Evaluation System Project" (ÖDES) has also been initiated to monitor and asses the progress of energy efficiency. The scope consists of, comparing energy efficiency progress with previous years and other countries, developing performance indicators, preparing projections based on possible scenarios, and conducting regulatory impact analysis in the preparation and implementation of legislation and integrated sources planning will be studied to create a current and reliable database in the field of energy efficiency and renewable energy sources. The tender for this project has already been made and the proposals are under evaluation.
