FAQs 6

How many solar panels can Turkey produce a year?

In 2020 solar cell manufacturing started in Turkey, and in 2022 Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Fatih Dönmez claimed that Turkey could assemble enough solar panels annually to produce 8 GW of power. Industry sometimes uses its own solar power for processes which need a lot of electricity, such as electrolysis.

Are wind and solar energy increasing in Türkiye?

Although wind and solar energy play an important role in meeting Türkiye's electricity demand, they are not increasing at a rate to meet annual increases in power demand. Wind and solar’s gains mean that fossil power grew less quickly than it otherwise would have, leading to a decline in its share of Türkiye's power.

How much solar capacity will be installed on Türkiye's rooftops?

It is therefore not clear what planned capacity will be installed on rooftops, land or water surfaces. Türkiye’s technical potential of at least 120 GW of rooftop solar capacity indicates that rooftops will play an important role in achieving the country’s solar energy capacity targets.

Does Türkiye have solar power?

The share of solar in electricity generation in Türkiye increased to 4.7% in 2022, lagging behind northern European countries such as the Netherlands (14%), Estonia (6.3%) and Denmark (5.8%), which have lower potential and smaller surface area compared to Türkiye. This remained true in the first half of 2023.

Is Türkiye a good place to invest in solar power?

In recent years Türkiye has seen rapid growth: doubling its solar installed capacity from 2022 to 2024 and commissioning approximately 4.5 GW of new solar power plants every year during this period. On the other hand, one of the most important obstacles for new wind and solar investments is connection capacity.

Does Türkiye have a solar roof?

Türkiye, which has ambitious solar targets, has a rooftop potential almost ten times its installed solar capacity. In addition to the current potential of roofs, tens of thousands of new buildings are being constructed every year in Türkiye with the rebuilding effort in the earthquake zone raising this figure even higher.
