ABSTRACT
Privatization is the process of transferring government properties (public utilities) from the
public sector to the private sector. There should be rules and regulations, which privatizations
have to follow to get those resources. There are both positive and negative externalities from the
privatization of water systems. Provision of the basic water services is a government’s
responsibility in many developing countries around the world.
A key priority in designing urban water policy and institutional reforms with the appropriate
structure of water charges is to ensure sustainability of supply. The recommendations which are
developed in this thesis are that the governments have to be very precise in the specification of
the terms and conditions of the privatization.
Keywords: stakeholder analysis, economic analysis, financial analysis.

ÖZ
Devletin vermekle yükümlü olduğu hizmetleri özel sektöre devretmesine özelleştirme denir.
Özelleştirmenin gerçekleşebilmesi için kurallar ve düzenlemeler vardır.
Özelleştirmede birçok pozitif ve negatif diş etkenler vardır. Gelişmekte olan ülkelerde su dağıtım
sistemi devletlerin sorumluluğu altındadır. Devletler yeterli ve verimli su dağıtımı yapamadıkları
için özelleştirme yolunu seçmektedirler.
Anahtar Kelimeler: stakeholder analizi, ekonomik analiz, finansal analiz.

INTRODUCTION
1.1 Dynamic Energy Flow
Much theoretical and experimental effort has been devoted recently to study the dynamic of
energy flow, following the initial excitation of a surface molecule.
Most of these studies deal with the processes of dissociative adsorption and desorption of small
molecules chemisorbed on metal surfaces.
1.1.1 Nonspecific Van Waals Forces
The essential feature of the physisoprtion systems is that the attractive forces between the
adsorbate and the surface are relatively nonspecific Van Waals forces.
the interconnectedness of all living systems in a single living planetary system, the
biosphere; the importance of natural cycles, and the passage of energy through trophic
levels of living systems.

Figure 1: Evaluation Measurements
Evaluation is perhaps the most complex and the least understood of the
term. Inherent in the idea of evaluation is “value”.
Rigorous analysis of completed or ongoing activities that determine or
support management accountability, effectiveness, and efficiency.
Evaluation of completed activities is called ex-post evaluation, post-hoc
evaluation, or summative evaluation.

Renewable energy in the EU has grown strongly in recent years. More
concretely, the share of energy from renewable sources in gross final
energy consumption has almost doubled in the last years.

When we evaluate, what we are doing is engaging in some process that
is designed to provide information.

Successful financing of innovation in renewable energy (RE) requires
a better understanding of the relationship between different types of
finance and their willingness to invest in RE.
Public financial actors invest in portfolios with higher risk
technologies.
