Türkiye Elektrik İletişim A.Ş., which will be able to provide a capacity of more than 30 GW excluding rooftop GES investments until the end of 2029, Turkey has published the capacity figures that can be connected to the electricity transmission system in the next five and ten years. According to the calculations in the 5 and 10 Annual (2024-2029) Regional Connectable Capacity Report published by TEİAŞ, a total of 27,271 MW of regional capacity will be provided in 9 of the 15 transmission zones, including 20,818 MW by the end of 2024 and 6,453 MW by the end of 2029. In the 58 regional provinces where regional capacities are not formed, a total of 2,900 MW of capacity can be provided, 50 MW on a provincial basis, for 2019-2024 for some possible production investments such as small production investments, production facilities within OIZ, and small amount of capacity increases.
