About

Buca Municipality is interested in joining international consortiums as a pilot city partner under the DUT Call 2026 – PED Topic 3: Sustainable PEDs, flexibility in energy systems, and integrated technologies.

With a population of over 500,000, Buca has a diverse urban structure, including high-density residential, historic and agricultural areas, providing a suitable real-world environment for testing innovative urban energy solutions.

Buca Municipality has a planned 1,190 kWp rooftop solar PV project at the Betontaş Covered Market Hall and Çamlıkule Municipal Service Facility. Grid connection capacity and the necessary administrative approvals have already been secured, while the solar systems have not yet been installed.

We are interested in working with international partners to explore solutions such as AI-based energy management, energy forecasting, energy flexibility, storage, digital energy management and integrated energy systems within a municipal pilot context.

We are open to joining an existing consortium or developing a project concept together with interested partners.
