New Dii Study Released
Türkiye 2035: A strategic roadmap to a 120+ GW solar and wind future
By bridging MENA’s clean energy abundance with the EU’s high demand, this study evaluates Türkiye’s current energy mix and low emission project forecasts, highlighting the nation’s transition into a regional clean energy hub. This shift envisions a future where Türkiye evolves from a net energy importer into a pivotal clean energy exporter, leveraging its vast renewable potential to power the European market.
