Türkiye installed 3.1 GW of solar across the first six months of 2025, according to figures from energy thinktank Ember.
Solar is now the third largest energy source in Türkiye, behind hydropower and gas. Over 76% of solar additions in H1 2025, equivalent to 2.4 GW, came from unlicensed power
Türkiye''s solar power capacity reached over 19 GW in just two and a half years, exceeding its 2025 target by August 2024 and supplying 6% of the country''s total electricity,
Turkey plans to add almost 4 GW of solar by the end of next year, with a nearly 50% share of renewables in its energy mix by that time.
As the largest photovoltaic park in history, the Kalyon Karapinar project sets a new benchmark for solar power. Yet, this achievement also highlights the challenges associated
Kalyon Holding''s renewable energy branch has finished its 1.35 GW solar power plant in Karapınar in Turkey''s Konya province.
As the largest photovoltaic park in history, the Kalyon Karapinar project sets a new benchmark for solar power. Yet, this
Solar power rose to 24.67 GW in Türkiye''s total power generation capacity at the end of November 2025, edging past natural gas at 24.24 GW Solar and wind together
Türkiye''s cumulative solar capacity surpassed 23 GW in June, according to figures from energy thinktank Ember, exceeding the
Türkiye''s renewable energy roadmap is both ambitious and clearly structured. For 2025, the government has defined targets of 5 GW for solar and 3 GW for wind power.
Türkiye has doubled its solar capacity in just 2.5 years, surpassing its current target more than a year ahead of schedule. The progress underlines the opportunity for an
Turkey plans to add almost 4 GW of solar by the end of next year, with a nearly 50% share of renewables in its energy mix by that time.
The $1.4 billion cost includes a 1 GW solar field 260km away in Konya. The factory was developed solely by Kalyon Solar
Kalyon Holding had won Türkiye''s first solar power auction (YEKA-1 GES) in 2017 to develop a solar park of 1.35 GW in peak capacity. Construction started in 2020. The solar
"Türkiye''s solar energy capacity doubled from 9.7 GW in July 2022 to exceed 19 GW by the end of 2024. By August 2024, the country had already exceeded the 18 GW target
