EPDK President: The Energy Sector Remained Turbulence-Free in 2025.

EPDK President Mustafa Yılmaz Evaluates the Energy Sector

The President of the Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EPDK) Mustafa Yılmaz participated in Bloomberg HT's 'Future Energy' program to evaluate the year 2025. Yılmaz stated that despite the tightening process in financial markets and the increase in commodity prices, there has not been a significant turbulence in Turkey's energy sector.

Investor Demand and Renewable Energy Investments

Turkey's energy sector attracts attention with a high investor appetite. Yılmaz emphasized the interest in the sector by stating, “There is also a strong appetite from foreigners. Investing in renewable energy is very advantageous.”

5 Billion Dollars in Investments on the Field

Yılmaz noted that storage-based RES and GES investments in the energy sector will quickly come into operation, stating, “As of today, approximately 350 megawatts of plants have been commissioned. There is currently 5 billion dollars of investment on the field.” He also announced that 15 billion dollars in natural gas savings could be achieved within 10 years with storage-based GES.

Statements on Electricity Prices

In response to the question "Is an electricity price increase on the way?", Yılmaz replied, “In February, we will do the calculations, and we may make another adjustment. Inflation has reached about 400% in four years, while the increase in electricity prices over the same period has been around 89%.”
