Türkiye’s Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EPDK) published the list of licensing decisions taken in October in the Official Gazette (Resmî Gazete) of 9 November 2026, issue 33425. According to a count by the trade publication Yeşil Haber, the electricity market list contains 25 new generation licences for projects with integrated storage: 13 solar and 12 wind, each valid for 49 years.

The projects. The solar projects include SYS Yunak (Sertel Enerji), Boğlan (Ymz Enerji Yatırımları), Köse (Erginis) and Büyüktatlar (Salur Elektrik). On the wind side, the storage projects include Yenice, Tufanağı, Çukuryurt, Amasya, Enek, Merge-4, Merge-5 and Şükrüpaşa. Separately, for seven other storage projects, among them Akköy, Toroslar, Iğdır and Zenkar 1, the old licences were terminated and reissued to other companies as a continuation; Yeşil Haber did not include them in the 25.

What the list does not say. The notice does not state the projects’ capacity in MW or their storage capacity in MWh, nor the investment value or commissioning dates, Yeşil Haber notes. A generation licence does not mean that a plant has been built or is already producing electricity.

Vehicle charging. The same list also covers licences for electric vehicle charging networks. According to Enerji Günlüğü, EPDK granted a 49-year charging network operator licence to Isparta-based Euroline Enerji by a decision of 8 October 2026, and terminated the licences of two other operators. As of 10 November 2026, 179 licences of this type were in force, the same publication said. Yeşil Haber also mentions the licence granted to Mil Dijital Elektrik Enerji.

The rest of the list. According to Yeşil Haber, the October list also contains licences for hydropower plants, for distribution in organised industrial zones (OSB), for aggregators and suppliers, as well as decisions cancelling or terminating some licences.
