Turkiye has entered into discussions with Saudi Arabia’s ACWA Power, one of the leading developers of renewable energy projects, to explore potential investments in the country’s growing green energy sector. This dialogue underscores Turkiye’s commitment to expanding its renewable energy capacity and strengthening regional cooperation on sustainable energy development.

The negotiations with ACWA Power focus on multiple opportunities within Turkiye’s green energy landscape, including wind, solar and hydrogen projects. ACWA Power, known for its extensive portfolio in renewable energy across the Middle East, Africa and Asia, is seen as a key potential partner for Turkiye as it aims to boost its share of renewables in the energy mix and achieve long-term sustainability goals.

These talks come amid Turkiye’s increasing efforts to diversify its energy sources, reduce dependence on fossil fuels and position itself as a regional leader in clean energy technologies. By fostering partnerships with established energy companies like ACWA Power, Turkiye aims to accelerate its transition to renewables, leveraging investments, expertise and technology transfer to advance its energy infrastructure.
