Renewable energy in Turkey
OverviewHybrid projects, storage and integrationFutureEconomicsRegulationsPoliticsHealthHistory
Renewables supply a quarter of energy in Turkey, including heat and electricity. Some houses have rooftop solar water heating, and hot water from underground warms many spas and greenhouses. In parts of the west hot rocks are shallow enough to generate electricity as well as heat. Wind turbines, also mainly near western cities and industry, generate a tenth of Turkey''s electricity. Hydropower,
