Türkiye’s hybrid solar potential is more than 8 GW: EMBER

The limited capacity of Türkiye’s electricity grid is negatively affecting the growth of renewable energy capacity. Across both transmission and distribution levels, the available capacity for unlicensed plants in Türkiye is only 0.52 GW. This slows down the realisation of new solar investments in Türkiye, a country with high solar potential. The investment costs required for new grid infrastructure are among the main barriers to increasing capacity allocations. According to TEİAŞ’s 2024–2028 Strategic Plan, 74% of the total 362 billion TL budget planned for the five-year period will be allocated to the renewal and development of the electricity grid. According to the analysis conducted by TEİAŞ and published in its Strategic Plan to assess external factors that may affect its operations and strategic decisions, economic factors have been identified as the second most important element likely to impact the organisation in the future, after technological factors.
