EEHH-Webinar: Türkiye’s Wind Power Market-A Key Link in Europe’s Energy Transition

Strong political will and foreign investment have helped Türkiye making remarkable progress in expanding wind energy capacity. By the end of 2025, installed capacity reached around 15 GW. Accounting for approximately 11% of the national electricity mix, wind power is now a vital component of Türkiye’s energy supply.

At the same time, the country is increasingly developing into a strategically important industrial and manufacturing base for Europe and the Middle East, with significant potential for local value creation. The implementation of the YEKA tenders has proven to be an effective instrument for strengthening the domestic wind industry.

Recent investment plans by Nordex and Enercon in the Izmir region further underscore that Türkiye is an important growth market for German wind companies.

The country’s greatest wind energy potential lies offshore, a resource that remains untapped. The Turkish government now intends to build on the success of country’s onshore wind and extend it to the sea through major offshore wind tenders.

The webinar will provide exclusive insight into Türkiye’s wind power market, including its overall strategy, regulatory framework and project pipeline. German company Nordex will present its recent investment activities in Türkiye and talk about the country’s potential for international supply chain. The third presentation will be given by EEHH member European Energy, focusing on Germany’s onshore wind market.

Through the webinar, we will also discuss the current challenges and opportunities in both countries and explore common ground for collaboration in project development, operation and technology.
