Renewable Energy Development in Türkiye

Turkey, which generated 45.3% of its electricity from natural gas in 2005, reduced that share to 12.2% in the first 9 months of 2026.

This decline was driven not only by hydropower, which rose to 29.8% in a rainy year, but also by wind and solar, which barely existed in 2015 but now account for 24.4% of generation.

When Akkuyu's first unit comes online, its share could be around 2.5%.
Over this period, Turkey's electricity generation more than doubled.
The first goal is to phase out imported coal.
