"While 62.9 percent of this power consists of renewable resources, we have reached a total installed power of 43 thousand 348 megawatts in solar and wind. The share of solar in our installed power has increased to 22 percent. We will increase the share of our clean, domestic and renewable resources day by day. By accelerating our renewable energy investments, especially solar and wind, we will both strengthen our energy supply security and take firm steps towards our 2053 Net Zero Emission target. Also during the COP31 process. "We will strongly demonstrate Türkiye's vision and concrete goals in this field. We will continue to work for a fully independent Türkiye in energy."
