Highlights

  • The country targets a 65% share of renewables in its electricity capacity by 2035. It pledges to cut GHG emissions in 2030 by 41% below a BAU scenario, which would imply a level of emissions 60% higher than in 2012.
  • Private companies account for around 3/4 of the power capacity.
  • Electricity and gas distribution is in the hand of municipal companies.
  • The country is very dependent on natural gas and oil imports (99% and 91%, respectively, in 2022).
  • The share of wind, solar, and geothermal in the power mix has increased by 17 points since 2010 to 19%.
  • Energy prices surged in 2022 in industry (140% for electricity, quadrupling for gas). Motor fuel prices increased as well; around 80% for diesel and 50% for gasoline.
  • Energy demand dropped by 3% in 2022, after an increasing trend.
  • Power generation absorbs a large share of coal and lignite.
  • Buildings are the main gas consumers, while oil is mostly used in transport.
  • Only one nuclear plant is moving forward, with the first unit completed in September 2023.
  • The solar and wind capacity is expected to increase to 53 GW and 30 GW, respectively, in 2035.
  • Significant amounts of natural gas have recently been discovered in the Black Sea by TPAO.

  • Institutions & Energy Policy

    MENR, Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (ETKB in Turkish) controls the energy sector.

  • Energy Companies

    Electricity:

    TEK, the Turkish Electricity Authority, which acted as the national power company until 1993, was gradually split into four companies: EUAS (Production), TEIAS (Transmission), TEDAS (Distribution), and TETAS (Marketing).

  • Energy Supply

    Oil:

    Türkiye covers only 10% of its total oil needs with a production of 4.6 Mt of crude oil (2022).

    The total refining capacity of 0.8 mb/d is distributed over 6 refineries, including 2 large ones belonging to Tupras: Izmir and Izmit (0.2 mb/d each). The STAR refinery (0.2 mb/d) was completed in 2018 by Socar.

  • Energy Prices

    Electricity:

    In 2022, electricity prices for industry increased by nearly 140% to €19.8c/kWh, in a context of high fossil fuel prices and high inflation. BOTAŞ raised electricity prices by 20% for industrial users in 2023. Household prices increased slightly to €8.6c/kWh in 2022.

  • Energy Consumption

    Total consumption per capita is around 1.8 toe (2022) (of which 3 300 kWh of electricity) compared to about 3.1 toe for the EU.

  • Issues & Prospects

    Electricity:

    As part of its National Energy Plan 2022-2035, Türkiye aims to increase its solar energy capacity more than fivefold to 53 GW by 2035 (8 GW in 2021). Wind capacity is expected to increase nearly threefold to reach 30 GW in 2035 (11 GW in 2021). The installed capacity of nuclear power plants should reach 7.2 GW by 2035.
