![]() IPC expects 33 GW by 2030 while EBC projects 32 GW, and SHURA does not incorporate any new hydro capacity in its pathways. Other net zero pathway studies from institutions such as the Istanbul Policy Center (IPC), Europe Beyond Coal (EBC) and SHURA have lower hydropower capacity projections for the same period. For hydro power, the document foresees a scenario where capacity expansion increases by 4 GW to peak at 36 GW in 2030 and then remains flat. The plan is the first of its kind to take Türkiye’s 2053 net zero target as its basis. In January 2023, Türkiye announced its new National Energy Plan, which includes capacity targets until 2035. In 2022, Türkiye generated 67 TWh from hydro, just above one-fifth of total electricity generation. Türkiye has the second highest hydro capacity in Europe after Norway at 32 GW. ![]() Hydro generation has historically been Türkiye’s main renewable electricity source.
