What one OEE point is worth in Türkiye

On a reference two-shift line (3,600 planned hours a year, a crew of four, 150 kW average load, starting at 60% OEE) one extra OEE point is worth €2,652 a year in Türkiye at national costs.

In shortOne OEE point frees 59 line-hours a year on the reference line. At €8.2 per labour hour and €0.0809 per kWh, that is €1,936 of labour time and €716 of electricity: €2,652 per point, per line, per year. If the freed capacity can be sold instead, the same point is +1.7% good output: about €4,760 of value added at Türkiye’s average manufacturing productivity. Türkiye is at position 22 of 22 European countries on this measure.

The math. Hours freed = planned hours × (1 − OEE now ÷ (OEE now + gain)): the same good output needs fewer planned hours. Value = hours freed × (operators × labour cost + kW × electricity price). Labour only counts if the hours are really released: overtime, a shift, agency staff or people moved to other work.

What moves the number in Türkiye

Türkiye’s manufacturing labour cost rose from €3.7 to €8.2 an hour between 2022 and 2025 (Eurostat), and capacity utilisation has sat at 73-74% for over a year. Freed hours matter less here than the unsold quarter of capacity: read the value-added view first. 73% of the value is labour time and 27% is electricity.

Public money for a measurement project in Türkiye

The KOBİ Dijital Dönüşüm Destek Programı finances 1,000,000 to 20,000,000 TL of machinery, software and hardware for manufacturing SMEs, with KOSGEB paying the interest on a partner-bank loan. An approved DDX or SIRI digital-maturity report is mandatory first. VAP pays up to 30% of project cost, capped at 15,000,000 TL, and requires a TS EN ISO 50001 certificate and a named energy manager.

Method and limits

Value-added view
National manufacturing value added per person employed, €35,700 in 2025 (Eurostat nama_10_a10 ÷ nama_10_a10_e), for eight people, × 1/60. A national average, not your margin: use the OEE ROI calculator with your own contribution margin.
What it is not
Not a margin figure, and not everything a point is worth: maintenance, scrap and overhead effects are left out, and they usually make the real figure larger.

Questions

How much is one OEE point worth in Türkiye?
About €2,652 a year on a two-shift line with four operators and 150 kW load, starting from 60% OEE, at Türkiye’s national labour and electricity costs. On three shifts (6,000 planned hours) the same point is worth about €4,420.
Why does each OEE point get worth less as OEE rises?
Because each point is a smaller share of what the line already produces: from 60% to 61% saves 1/61 of planned time, from 80% to 81% only 1/81. At 80% OEE the same point is worth €1,997 in Türkiye.
Should I use this number in a business case?
Use it as the floor. It prices only released hours and electricity; if the line is sold out, value the extra output at your contribution margin instead, and add scrap and maintenance effects once you have measured them.
