SEPTEMBER 29, 2023

Türkiye's demand for electricity and natural gas has tripled over the past 20 years, Alparslan Bayraktar, Turkish Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, said at the 3rd Azerbaijan-Türkiye Energy Forum held today in Nakhchivan.

The minister said that Türkiye's demand for electricity increases by 4.7% annually: "Türkiye's energy policy is to meet the growing demand for energy in the coming period, reduce dependence on foreign energy and achieve a carbon-free economy in the next 30 years. To achieve these goals, we need a big transformation in the field of energy."

Bayraktar believes that a successful energy transformation is possible only with a sensitive, agile, and rational policy, as well as bilateral and multilateral beneficial cooperation.
