Energy

As Türkiye’s capital, Ankara is where the country’s energy policy, regulation and grid planning are shaped — and a growing base for renewable energy equipment, engineering and clean-tech innovation.

Why Ankara for energy

  • Decision-makers in one city — the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources and the Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EPDK) are headquartered in Ankara.
  • National energy companies — Ankara is home to the headquarters of BOTAŞ (natural gas) and TEİAŞ (electricity transmission).
  • Industrial supply chain — OSTİM and the city’s organised industrial zones host manufacturers of electrical equipment, machinery and components, including a dedicated renewable energy and environmental technologies cluster.
  • Research and engineering talent — universities and technoparks provide engineering graduates and R&D partners in power electronics, materials and energy systems.
  • Solar potential — the Central Anatolian plateau offers favourable conditions for solar energy projects.
