The latest research report from IntelStor identifies the growth potential in the Turkish market. Offshore has been previously explored in Turkey, but the market potential was largely underestimated or ignored due to transmission complexities, water depths and the limited available wind data at 80 metres.
Modern floating foundation and TLP designs will enable access to more wind potential than previously anticipated. Onshore transmission infrastructure investments which are already underway will facilitate offshore developments in adjacent regions. Additionally, previous studies of offshore potential in Turkey were limited to 80m wind data, but the current study revealed that investigation at 100 -120 metres hub height would likely unlock more potential in the Aegean, Mediterranean and Black Sea regions. The full report which covers both onshore and offshore potential as well as optimal turbine sizing, market competitiveness and more.
