Turkey plans major electricity outages in Nevşehir, Bursa, Uşak and İzmir
Local electricity distributors in Turkey announced scheduled power cuts across several provinces in early August 2026. In Nevşehir, maintenance, high‑voltage work and network renewal will cause outages on 7 August, affecting districts such as Derinkuyu, Hacıbektaş, Kozaklı and Ürgüp for up to eight hours. Bursa’s utility UEDAŞ will carry out maintenance, repairs and grid‑strengthening on 6 August, with planned interruptions in ten districts including Gemlik, İnegöl, Karacabey, Mudanya, Nilüfer, Orhangazi, Osmangazi, Yenişehir and Yıldırım, some lasting the whole day. Uşak province will see similar scheduled cuts on 7 August, with specific streets listed for each neighbourhood. İzmir’s GDZ Elektrik will perform network maintenance on 6 and 7 August, affecting 14‑20 districts such as Aliağa, Bayındır, Bergama, Çeşme, Dikili, Foça, Kemalpaşa, Menemen, Ödemiş and Seferihisar; outage durations vary from one to eight hours depending on the work. All providers warned residents to prepare for temporary loss of electricity and noted that early completion of the work could restore power ahead of the announced times.
