Country Analysis Brief
  • Turkey is seeking to become a regional energy transit hub sending from Russia, the Caspian Sea region and the Middle East westward towards Europe.
  • Although Turkey is not a major oil producer, its emerging role as an important oil transit country makes it increasingly important to world oil markets.
  • Turkey holds a strategic role in natural gas—between the world’s second largest natural gas market, continental Europe, and the substantial gas reserves of the Caspian Basin and the Middle East. However, rapidly increasing domestic demand will make it difficult to meet re-export commitments.
  • The majority of Turkey’s coal production is for electricity generation.
  • The majority of Turkey’s electricity comes from conventional thermal sources.
  • Turkey’s per capita carbon emissions remain well below the regional average, although emissions levels are on the rise.
