Key Trends in the Turkish Market
1Demand for power will continue to rise at approximately 7% per year, necessitating
new capacity additions
2The market reform process is progressing with private companies keen to expand their
presence in the market
3Turkey’s fuel mix will diversify, with greater investment in renewables. Coal and gas will
remain a key element of the fuel mix
4Once a functioning bureaucracy is in place, the solar power market is expected to
boom fuelled particularly by the 'below 500 kW regulation'. This regulation will unlock a
significant amount of investment
5Power generation is dominated by local, diversified industrial groups. While several
international utilities are partnering with Turkish companies, most projects are run solely
by local companies, involved in the construction industry
6New competitors are continuing to emerge though and international investors are also
keen to expand their presence
7With most equipment imported from abroad, Turkey is an attractive market for
equipment OEMs. The presence of Chinese players is increasing
8There remains a bottleneck around financing, but this can be overcome as global
lending conditions improve

Of the 12.4GW of capacity, 8.5GW utilises
domestic coal reserves. Turkey has 11.8 billion
tonnes of reserves; 1.3 billion tonnes of hard-
coal and 10.8 billion tonnes of lignite.
Coal plants built between 1980 and 1990 are
currently being privatised. A further 7GW of
capacity is being lined up to be tendered to the
private sector.
Despite government pronouncements on using
domestic coal, a high amount of investment is
planned based on imported coal, determined
from the licences currently under assessment
and examination. Project developers are
preferring to utilise higher calorific valued-coal, in
order to ensure higher returns and a shorter ROI.
Recent study predicts 5GW of additional coal
capacity to be online by 2023

From a supply side, Russia is the main source
of gas, but Turkey also has connections to
Caucasus's and Iran. Although Turkey is
heavily dependent on imports, it is also an
important transit country to Europe.
State-owned Botas dominates the local supply
market, but there are plans to liberalise the
market in future, creating new opportunities.
Although gas only accounts for 31% of
capacity, 48% of the electricity was generated
by gas-fired power plants in 2011.
A total of 8,120MW worth of licences have
been approved and much of this is under
construction.

Expansion of Hydropower, 2011 and 2023
Installed Capacity by Share of Hydropower, 2011 The current installed capacity as of 2011, was
17.1GW, with 15.2 GW of hydropower plants
under construction.
On the equipment supply side, Turkey has
increasingly become a battleground as
Chinese manufacturers have been increasing
their presence in the market, especially
supplying hydro turbines below 15MW. Over
15 MW, the investors tend to work with the
Western OEMs such as Voith
Hydro, Alstom, and Andritz Hydro.
Challenges facing the market include:
• Poor coordination between the responsible
corporations
• Public protest based on the environmental
impacts
• Lack of control mechanism of the
hydropower plants during
feasibility, construction, and after
commissioning period.
Significant expansion of hydropower + refurbishment

Expansion of Wind, 2011 and 2023
Installed Capacity by Share of Wind, 2011As of the end of 2013, EPDK has granted 209
licences corresponding to 7,479 MW capacity
including the operational and under-
construction plants. The Turkish government
has set a target of 20GW of wind capacity by
2023.
However major challenges faced in the market
include:
• High number of permits at the construction
stage
• Priority given to exhaustible resources (gas
and coal)
• Obligation to provide an estimate of
electricity output 13 hours in advance,
which is hard to provide with accuracy
considering the intermittency of wind power
• Bureaucratic difficulties during licence
period

The Challenge Project Objectives
A leading global supplier of wind turbines has
recently entered the market in Turkey. Given
its late entrance to the market, the company
wanted to gain detailed insights into the
market trends and dynamics to ascertain the
realistic market opportunity. In addition, our
client wanted to understand the operational
activities of competitors in order to ramp up its
business in an optimal manner through best
practices and lessons learned in the market.
• To assess the market opportunity of the wind power
plant services market in revenues;
• To forecast the market size to 2017 (with 2012 as the
base year)
• To identify key trends, revenues drivers/enablers and
restraints and how this will impact the market;
• To identify key competitors and provide detailed profiles
on their operational architecture; and
• To provide key conclusions and actionable
recommendations for our client to maximise their
success in this market.
Our Approach and Work
Frost and Sullivan initially utilised data from out internal studies, key public sources and databases. These
were used as a platform on which the remaining market intelligence was built. Our analysts used detailed
expert interviews with key market participants to uncover the details and provide insightful results. Overall, 30
interviews were conducted.
Outcome and Business Impact
The client will use the data to plan its next operational investments in Turkey to build its wind power services
networks most effectively incurring the least investments that will have the maximum coverage for its
customers. The intelligence will feed into the structured roll out of team build up and the ramp up of its

As of 2012, EUAS is still the biggest power generation
company in Turkey. However, this will change once its
assets are acquired by private investors during the
continued privatization.
The second largest group is independent generation
companies, which we will see their shares increasing in
the future as companies proceed with commissioning
new plants and acquiring power plants within
privatization portfolio.

concentrated and through a ‘top-down’ approach where industry databases were available and the
customers base was highly fragmented. Interviews were conducted with 100 key market participants
(competitors and customers) to ascertain current requirements and spending plans. In addition, extensive
desk research was used to cross check and supplement the analysis.
Outcome and Business Impact
• The project lasted for 12 weeks and this involved close interaction (weekly onsite work) with the client.
• Frost & Sullivan presented the data to the key strategy development stakeholders
•These inputs will be used in our clients yearly business strategy development plans.

Key questions for investors in the Turkish market – the
basis for future discussions
Source: Frost & Sullivan analysis.
Independent
opinion
Investment decisions should be supported with research and verification from an independent
source – crucially a company with a local presence in the market and access to senior industry
figures.
Appetite for
risk
Turkey offers excellent potential, given the strong pace of economic development and electricity
demand growth. But investors need to consider that the regulatory climate is less certain than
Western Europe and poses significant challenges.
Identifying the
right sub
segment
It is vital to understand the political, social, economic and legal factors that are shaping the
market through a reliable forecast on future developments. Market segments that are attractive
in other country markets may be not be as attractive in Turkey and vice versa.
Local PartnerLocal partners are essential for non-Turkish companies to do business in Turkey. Picking the
right partner that fits with your company’s corporate ethos and strategic vision is key.
ExpertiseWestern European, North Asian and American companies are seen as bringing expertise and
vision that is not necessarily present amongst indigenous players – this is something that can be
exploited to the benefit of the investor.
