In 2025, renewable sources generated 43% of Türkiye’s electricity. The figure appears in the energy policy review published by the International Energy Agency on 4 September. The share refers to electricity generation, which is one part of the country’s energy use. [1][2]
The national plan aims for 55% by 2035: that remains a target. To integrate more renewable generation, the report identifies the need to strengthen grids, storage and demand flexibility. Power plants need a system capable of receiving the energy they produce. [2]
The bright side
Renewables already account for more than two fifths of national electricity generation, according to the IEA’s 2025 data. [2]
