The energy and state legislators must provide this most basic necessities of the community in an uninterrupted, reliable, timely, cheap and clean manner. This necessity is much the same for the industrialists and tradesmen as well as the consumers in their home. In the globalizing world, an indispensable prerequisite is to supply the energy for the country’s industry from uninterrupted, reliable sources and low-priced as the most basic and weighted input into the cost of the final product. However, the realities experienced in the energy field of our country, far from being in harmony with these basic requirements, are in stark contrast. The energy policy of Turkey aims at diversifying the source country and route, starting to use nuclear energy while increasing the share of renewable energy in the energy mix, research on increasing energy efficiency and contributing the energy security of Europe. Our country, which is located in a region with approximately seventy percent of proven oil and natural gas reserves, is one of the largest natural gas and electricity markets in its region. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessEnergy policyForeign politicsConference ObjectQ4574 LNNS28402848
