To commence the project implementation period, the next phase is the signature of the contract with the Development and Investment Bank of Turkey. The details regarding the procedures are already sent to each project owner through e-mail.

On the other hand, during the evaluation process, the CCO identified a number of project proposals which it would have admitted if there had been additional financial means in the 2020 implementation period. In this sense, the CCO has established a waiting list for those project proposals.
