“Türkiye’s solar energy capacity doubled from 9.7 GW in July 2022 to exceed 19 GW by the end of 2024. By August 2024, the country had already exceeded the 18 GW target set for 2025 in the National Energy Plan (NEP) by the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (MENR). Achieving this target 1.5 years ahead of schedule underscores Türkiye’s strong commitment to solar energy and signals the need for more ambitious future targets.

Unlicensed plants, primarily built for self-consumption, accounted for 90% of new installations in the past four years.”
