Highlights
- The country targets producing 50% of its electricity from renewables in 2023.
- Private companies account for around 75% of the power capacity.
- The country is very dependent on natural gas and oil imports (99% and 91%, respectively).
- The share of coal and lignite in the power mix has increased by 9 points since 2010; the share of wind and solar reached 12% in 2019.
- The country has very high motor fuel prices, but low gas prices, especially for households.
- Total energy demand has remained stable since 2017. 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 project is moving forward. The development of coal and lignite-fired generation is continuing.
- Significant amounts of natural gas have recently been discovered in the Black Sea by TPAO.

Abstract
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:
Turkey covers only 9% of its total oil needs with a production of 4.0 Mt of crude oil (2020).
The total refining capacity of 0.8 mb/d is distributed over 6 refineries, including 2 large ones belonging to Tupras: Aliaga in Izmir and Izmit (0.22 mb/d each). The STAR refinery (0.2 mb/d) was completed in 2018 by Socar.
Energy Prices
Oil:
Oil prices are close to the EU average. They dropped in 2020 in line with international prices, reaching €0.82/l for gasoline and €0.76/l for diesel.
Energy Consumption
Total consumption per capita is around 1.7 toe (2020) (of which 3 080 kWh from electricity) compared to about 3.1 toe for the EU.
Issues & Prospects
Electricity:
TEIAS forecasts a 34 GW increase in electricity capacity between 2018 and 2022 (+11 GW over 2018-2020).
