Electricity sector in Turkey Electricity generation, transmission and consumption in Turkey

Turkey uses more electricity per person than the global average but less than the European average, with demand peaking in summer due to air conditioning. Most electricity is generated from coal, gas and hydropower. The hydroelectricity from the east is transmitted to big cities in the west. Electricity prices are state-controlled, but wholesale prices are heavily influenced by the cost of imported gas.
