The Turkish Photovoltaic Industry Ranks Fourth in the World, Hoping to Enter the Top Three

A few days ago, the Turkish solar component manufacturer SmartSolartechnology said that the company will build a vertical integrated photovoltaic manufacturing base in Izmir, the third largest city in Turkey, with a total installed capacity of 2 million kilowatts. The main link of the production line of vertical integrated photovoltaic manufacturing base covers silicon wafers, battery films, and component photovoltaic manufacturing. It is expected that after the factory is put into operation, it will become the largest photovoltaic manufacturing base in Turkey.

According to Smartsolartechnology, the project has received strong support from the Turkish government. The Turkish government promises to allocate 4009 million USD for the construction of integrated chemical factories. The construction period is about 4 years. After the project is officially put into operation, the required imported raw materials will also be exempted from paying VAT and tariffs.

Ember of the clean energy think tank pointed out that recently, due to the overall rising trend of natural gas prices in the world, Turkey's electricity prices have soared. In 2021, the country's total natural gas consumption reached 61.6 billion cubic meters, a new record. Increasing the use of renewable energy can reduce its dependence on fossil fuel by reducing its import scale and use. Turkey needs to speed up investment and deployment of renewable energy such as photovoltaic.

The expansion of photovoltaic products is one of the main goals of the Turkish government. The Minister of Energy and Natural Resources of Turkey, Fith Dengmez, said that the proportion of Turkey's renewable energy power generation machines has increased rapidly since 2002. The photovoltaic industry has developed rapidly from 2014, and the scale of installation has increased from 4,000 kilowatts to 8 million kilowatts. The results are obvious, but Turkey's goal not only increases the proportion of renewable energy power generation machines, but also localize photovoltaic manufacturing technology. At present, Turkey has become the largest solar panel manufacturer in Europe and the fourth largest solar panel manufacturer in the world. Turkey hopes to enter the top three in the world's solar panel manufacturing.
