Published with open access at www.questjournals.org ABSTRACT: This paper presents energy, emission analysis and emissions reducing policies aimed was examined in the transportation sector flows for the next decades in Turkey. The transportation sector is a two type in road, which commercial transportation sector and public service sector. The transportation sector using as a fossil fuels and Turkey is a country dependent on foreign countries that imports fossil fuel needs. The transport sector is responsible for about 14% of total final energy demand and import dependency was over about 90% by the year 2015 in Turkey. The transportation technologies and using alternative fuel in transportation sector; energy use, emissions reducing policies aims and dependent on crude oil imports for the transportation system is very important how it will changes in the next decades years. In addition to the impacts of using fossil fuels and alternative fuels together with energy polices and aimed at reducing emissions was investigated from the Turkey highway transportation sector. Keywords: Turkey, transportation sector, energy policy, energy analysis, emissions. I. INTRODUCTION The importance of energy in economic development has been recognized almost universally and energy is accepted a prime factor in the generation of wealth and also a significant factor in economic development. Over the past two decades, as a result of industrial production-oriented and human transportation activities, the dramatic increase in environmental pollution and made this problem more apparent [1]. Generally, transportation system may be defined as consisting of the fixed as a planned network of elements or physical components facilities, the flow entities, vehicles by fuel types and the control system that permit people and goods to overcome, the friction of geographical space efficiently in order to participate in a timely manner in some desired activity. In all countries of the world, especially in developed and developing countries; energy consumption has risen rapidly in accordance with increase in economic growth in the last decades[2]. In the term 1998-2008 yearly average increase rate in Turkey‟ s total final energy consumption is %3,81. It has seen that yearly average increases are about %3,56 for industry sector; %3,49 for building sector; %4,07 for transport sector and %7,44 for service sector for the same term. Due to the increase in personel car usage and investments in transportation service sector, it is draw attention that the highest increases recorded in last decade in these two sectors[3]. As developing country Turkey’s energy demands, for all kind of energy was increased rapidly and since 1990, energy consumption is increasing at annual average rates of 4.3%. During the period 2000-2010, the primary energy consumption rate increased by 34.6% and it was reached 109.3 mtoe by the year 2010[4]. Oil has been one of the main energy sources in Turkey, accounting for some 28% of the country’s total primary energy supply in 2011. According to the international energy agency's report for the year 2013; Turkey’s Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES) has risen considerably from 24.4 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe) in 1973 to 114.1 Mtoe in 2011 at a compound annual growth rate of 4%. Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES) is most likely considered to continue to grow at a compound annual growth rate of around 4.5% from 2015 to 2030, rising to over 237 Mtoe in 2030[5]. The transportation sector has characteristics of commonly using crude oil fuel products. Turkey is not rich energy resources and import dependency was about 90% and will increase in time as energy consumption increases by the year 2012. In addition to taking steps to diversify Turkey’s sources of supply, Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources has been working to establish a properly functioning internal energy market for the country’s all energy sectors. The demand for alternative fuels has increasing rapidly in transportation the Turkey over the future years. 99% of petroleum products used in the transportation industry and percent 49.37% vehicles of transportation using of diesel fuel. The possible fuel
