12. OVERVIEW OF THE SOLAR ENERGY SECTOR

The expansion of renewable energy into the electricity generation, heating and transportation sectors is key to keeping the global temperature rise below 1,5°C. In the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 scenario, renewable sources make it possible for electricity generation to become almost completely carbon-free. Thanks to the investments made in recent years, clean energy technologies have become more accessible and efficient and have been rapidly adopted in different geographies around the world.

In 2024, global energy demand increased by 2,2%, exceeding the average growth rate of the last decade. While all fuel types and energy technologies saw demand growth, a 4.3% increase in electricity demand was the main driver of this increase. This increases outpaced global GDP growth (3.2%), driven by record temperatures, electrification and digitalization. Renewable sources accounted for 38% of the increase in global energy supply, with other sources including natural gas (28%), coal (15%), oil (11%) and nuclear power (8%). (Source; IEA 2025 global energy report)

Global investments in clean energy transition increased at a CAGR of 12,1% between 2020 and 2024, reaching nearly USD 2 trillion in 2024. On average, 63% of clean energy investments came from Asia Pacific, 35% from Europe and 22% from North America.

In the same period, fossil fuels grew at a CAGR of 7,7% to reach USD 1 trillion. When we look at global fossil fuel investments, the shares of the relevant regions in investments are approximately 29%, 7% and 28%, respectively. Fossil fuel investments still outpace renewable energy investments, especially in Africa, the Middle East and Eurasia, regions rich in underground resources.

Global Electricity Generation by Source and Share of Solar Energy

In 2024, more than 80% of the increase in global electricity generation came from clean energy sources, while the share of global electricity generation from low-carbon sources was 40,9%. Solar PV made the largest contribution with an increase of around 480 TWh, reaching its highest level in six years with an annual growth rate of 29%. Solar electricity generation has continued to double approximately every three years since 2016. In 2024, the share of solar energy in electricity generation was 7,7%. By the end of 2029, the share of solar is expected to increase at a CAGR of 22,1%, reaching around 18%. (Source; IEA 2025 Global Energy Report, EMBER)

With 21.8% of the total capacity in 2024, solar energy is expected to reach 5737 GW in 2029 and increase its share in total capacity to around 38,5%.

Solar energy market trends and investment dynamics

In 2024, solar panel manufacturers sold mainstream modules at an average price of \$0,10/W, very close to or below the cost of production. Adjusted for inflation, prices have fallen by 96% since 2010. This decline has been driven by technological development, economies of scale, intense price competition, manufacturing experience and structural overcapacity. However, by March 2025, the biggest difference in the price of solar modules will depend not on technology, but on the market in which they are sold. Trade barriers in markets such as India and the US are driving prices higher.

However, solar capex has started to slow down as innovation becomes more difficult. The efficiency increases between a standard module in 2012 and one in 2024 were only 7,3%. Solar investments fell by an average of 14% last year.

Overview of the Solar Energy Sector in Turkey

The Republic of Turkey Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources pursues 2 main policies within the scope of the 2nd National Energy Efficiency Plan 2024-2030 and the national energy roadmap 2035. These policies are on limiting energy demand and meeting energy supply from clean energy.

1) Limiting energy demand through efficient practices:

Within the scope of the 2053 Net Zero Emission target, the 1st National Energy Efficiency Plan 2017- 2023 aims to reduce primary energy consumption by 14%, while the 2nd National Energy Action Plan 2024-2030 aims to reduce primary energy consumption by 16%. The Ministry has allocated USD 20.2 billion of resources in this context, of which USD 5 billion will be provided through tax and incentive programs. During the conversion of primary energy into final energy, there is an average efficiency loss of 32% for other sources, while this rate is 16% for renewable energy. In this context, electricity prices, which will fall thanks to renewable energy policies and technological developments, are expected to accelerate electrification in the coming period. According to Turkey's National Energy Plan, electricity consumption is expected to reach 510,5 TWH by 2035.

2) Ensuring Energy Supply from Clean Energy Sources:

The installed capacity of 30 GW of RES-PPP by 2024 is targeted to reach 120 GW by 2035. In this context, USD 80 billion has been allocated. If the rates in the National Energy Plan are maintained, solar power is expected to reach 77 GW. Considering these figures, it is expected that 5,72 GW of SPP will be installed annually for the next 10 years and 28% of the installed capacity will be solar energy.

Turkey's total installed capacity, which stood at 115.983 megawatts (MW) at the end of December 2024, reached 117.876 MW in March 2025. Power plants generating electricity from renewable resources accounted for 60.3% of the installed capacity in March. Hydroelectric power plants accounted for 27.3% of Turkey's total installed capacity, while the share of wind and solar power plants in total installed capacity surpassed that of hydroelectric power plants with 29,4%. (Source; TSKB Economic Research Report March 2025)

In 2024, solar electricity generation increased by 39% compared to the previous year and amounted to 25,66 TWh. According to EPİAŞ data, 74,1 TWh of electricity was generated in the first quarter of 2020, and the share of solar energy was 0.1%. Solar energy, which had a low share in the total due to seasonality in the first months of the year, increased its share to 1,6% with a CAGR of 86% for the same period in 2025 with the rapid capacity increase in recent years.

According to TEİAŞ national electricity consumption base forecast, electricity demand, which was around 348 TWh in 2024, is expected to grow by 2,8% per year on average and reach around 400 TWh in 2029. (Source; TEİAŞ 2025-2034 Demand Forecast Report)

According to Bloomberg NEF data, the share of solar energy generation in the world was 7,7% in 2024 and is expected to reach 17,8% in 2029 with an average annual growth of 18,3%. In Turkey, the share was similar to that of the world in 2024 and amounted to 7,48%. It is expected to grow by an annual average of 15,1% in the next 5 years and increase its share to 15% in 2029.

Under Turkish conditions, 1 GW of solar panel installations generates 1,32 TWh of electricity annually, and considering the electricity base demand and the share of solar energy, an average of

5,2 GW of new installations are expected to be made annually in the next 5 years. (Source; EPİAŞ Transparency Platform)
