Melikgazi Mayor Assoc. Dr. Mustafa Palancıoğlu said, “The implementation work of the project named “The Solar City Project”, implemented by our Municipality and supported by the European Union, continues. Vehicles that consume fossil fuels are one of the main factors causing climate change. Within the scope of the project, an electric waste collection vehicle, which was planned as a pilot study and will lead to the conversion of service vehicles to electric vehicles, was purchased. The vehicle purchased with the EU Fund will serve in places in Melikgazi that are narrow and difficult for large vehicles to enter. Melikgazi Municipality has taken another important step in combating climate change with 0 electric and 0 locally produced vehicles. Melikgazi Municipality, which has taken important steps in the fight against climate change, will continue its work without slowing down and will make significant progress towards a climate-friendly municipality. Our goal with the electric garbage collection truck is to clean our Melikgazi in the most environmentally friendly and quietest way.” said.
