Sakarya University places significant emphasis on the use of renewable energy sources. In 2023, the university supported renewable energy generation that exceeded its own energy consumption through International Renewable Energy Certificates (IREC), specifically for hydropower, wind, and solar energy. The IREC certification accelerates the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources and provides consumers with proof that the energy they use is sourced from renewable resources. This certification not only aligns with national and international energy goals but also contributes to reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainable energy trade. The acquisition of IREC certificates highlights the university’s commitment to environmental sustainability.
