Türkiye has released its Second Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC 3.0), committing to reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 466 MtCO2eq by 2035 compared to a business-as-usual (BAU) scenario, limiting GHG emissions to 643 MtO2eq by 2035. The target covers all IPCC sectors, including energy, industrial processes and product use (IPPU), agriculture, waste, and LULUCF. The country, which estimated its net GHG emissions at 458.8 MtCO2eq (including LULUCF) in 2018, will unveil further methodological details such as sectoral breakdowns in its next Biennial Transparency Reports (BTR) (Türkiye NDC 3.0, 09/11/2025).
Under its Updated First NDC (2023), Türkiye committed to reducing its GHG emissions by 41% by 2030 to 695 MtCO2eq compared to the BAU scenario (1,175 MtCO2eq by 2030, including LULUCF), and set up net-zero target for 2053. According to the Twelfth Development Plan, the country will have to invest at least 1.7% of its GDP annually to achieve net-zero by 2053.
