Global energy storage investments have surpassed 150 GWh. Türkiye has already begun installations in Hungary, Bulgaria, and Spain, leveraging its geographic advantage close to Europe. Tokcan highlighted the importance of local expertise in manufacturing, system management, and maintenance to avoid dependency on foreign firms.
Türkiye has a semi-liberalized and moderately regulated market. Energy Exchange Istanbul (EXIST) is Türkiye’s electricity spot market, which manages day-ahead and intraday markets where 40% of electricity is traded among 854 market participants. EXIST’s website features electricity prices in real time.
Approximately 56% of Türkiye’s electric power generation capacity consist of renewable energy, including hydroelectric, wind, solar, geothermal, and biomass power plants, making Türkiye the fifth-largest generator of renewable energy in Europe and the 11th largest in the world.
According to Türkiye’s 2020–2035 National Energy Plan, Türkiye’s power generation capacity will reach 189.7 GW in 2035 (a 79% increase from 2023). Türkiye’s share of renewable energy will increase to 64.7% with solar power capacity increasing 432% and wind capacity increasing 158%.
“We believe Türkiye can become a regional hub for battery technology, and our government is committed to making this a reality,” Tokcan said. These efforts will position Türkiye as a leader in energy storage innovation, fostering collaboration and supporting renewable energy goals.
