The fact that Türkiye has a very high potential for renewable energy means that it will continue to grow in this area. In addition to its potential to cover the entire annual electricity demand from solar energy, the country also has a very important potential in terms of wind energy, especially on the sea coasts. Türkiye's energy transition to clean energy is promising for the future. While the installed capacity of renewable energies in Türkiye was 15.5 GW in 2009, it more than tripled in 2021.
And Türkiye not only generates electricity from renewable sources, but also invests significantly in technology and infrastructure. For example, the country already imposes certain quotas for component production in the region in corresponding tenders and offers significant incentives for the production of clean energy technologies domestically.
With this report, we offer you an overview of the cleantech sector in Türkiye. Our aim is to evaluate the potential for Swiss SMEs in the Turkish market and its cleantech sectors. We want to demonstrate advantages and identify business possibilities for Swiss SME.
