Turkey natural gas infrastructure expansion
Overview
Natural gas infrastructure projects have expanded across several Turkish districts, yielding mixed results regarding accessibility and implementation.
In Çıldır, officials held an opening ceremony for new lines intended to reduce heating costs. However, in the Bağlar district of Diyarbakır, residents raised concerns that high installation and monthly costs create socioeconomic barriers to actual usage.
In Ünye, the network has reached 56,000 homes, with 41,000 households currently active. While the main network is complete, further investment for side streets is planned for 2027. Meanwhile, in the Esentepe neighborhood of Yüksekova, residents reported being excluded from the project despite gas lines passing their homes, leading to calls for local authorities to resolve service gaps before winter.
