Turkey renewable energy regulatory and tender updates

Overview

The Turkish Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources implemented new technical evaluation criteria for wind energy electricity production. These regulations, published in the Official Gazette, mandate stricter adherence to turbine specifications, land boundaries, and certification data to prevent application rejections. The rules also expand the definition of “incompatible areas” to include potential conflicts with solar, biomass, geothermal, and YEKA (Renewable Energy Resource Zones) areas.

Following these regulatory updates, the application process for Turkey’s 2026 YEKA solar and wind energy tenders concluded with 31 total applications. This included 19 companies applying for solar energy (GES) capacity and 12 companies applying for wind energy (RES) tenders, with some firms participating in both categories.
