İklim değişikliğinin ve enerji güvenliği kaygısının kritik sonuçlarından biri de enerji kaynaklarının çeşitlendirilmesi zorunluluğudur. Bu bağlamda, yenilenebilir enerji önemli bir fırsat olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Türkiye yenilenebilir enerji kaynakları açısından önemli bir potansiyele sahiptir. Özellikle rüzgâr ve güneş enerjisi kaynaklarının yaygın olarak benimsenmesi 2011 yılından sonra ivme kazanmıştır. Son yıllarda Türkiye'nin yenilenebilir enerji sektörü hızlı bir büyüme kaydetmiştir ve bu alanda Avrupa ülkeleri arasında önde gelen bir oyuncu olmaya hazırlanmaktadır. Bu makale, Türkiye'nin yenilenebilir enerji sektörüne kapsamlı bir genel bakış sunmaktadır. Araştırma doküman analizi yöntemine göre dizayn edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada sunulan bilgiler ulusal ve uluslararası raporlardan, ulusal enerji planlarından, uluslararası anlaşmalardan, enerji şirketi istatistiklerinden ve araştırma makalelerinden alınmıştır. Bulgular, Türkiye yenilenebilir enerji sektörünün son on beş yılda radikal bir büyüme yaşadığını göstermektedir. Hidroelektrik enerji uzun yıllardır kullanılmakta olup, Türkiye kurulu kapasite açısından önde gelen ülkelerden biridir. Bununla birlikte, özellikle kurulu rüzgâr ve güneş enerjisi kapasitesindeki gelişme dikkat çekicidir. 2010-2024 yılları arasında rüzgâr enerjisi kurulu gücü yaklaşık yedi katına çıkmıştır. Güneş enerjisi kurulu gücü ise 2015-2024 yılları arasında yaklaşık elli kat artmıştır.

AN OVERVIEW OF TÜRKİYE’S RENEWABLE ENERGY OUTLOOK

Öz

A critical outcome of climate change and energy security concerns is the need to diversify energy sources. In this context, renewable energy emerges as a significant opportunity. Türkiye has significant potential in terms of renewable energy resources. In particular, the widespread use of wind and solar energy sources has gained momentum since 2011. In recent years, Türkiye's renewable energy sector has experienced rapid growth and is poised to become a prominent player among European countries in this field. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the renewable energy sector in Türkiye. The study was conducted using the document analysis method. The information presented in this article was taken from national and international reports, national energy plans, international agreements, energy company statistics and research papers. The results show that the renewable energy sector in Türkiye has experienced radical growth in the last fifteen years. Hydropower has been used for many years and Türkiye is one of the leading countries in terms of installed capacity. However, the development of installed wind and solar capacity is particularly noteworthy. Between 2010 and 2024, installed wind power capacity increased about sevenfold. Between 2015 and 2024, installed solar power capacity grew by about fifty times.
