Mevcut teknolojilerle Türkiye, binalarda kullandığı enerjinin %100’ünü, ulaşımın %96'sını ve sanayinin %58'i elektrikle sağlanabilir. #COP31 ev sahibi Türkiye, elektriğin nihai enerji tüketimindeki payını küresel ölçekte 2035'te %35'e çıkarma taahhüdünü duyurdu. 2/3

"Türkiye, yüksek yenilenebilir enerji potansiyelini elektrifikasyon yoluyla nihai tüketicilere taşıyacak politika değişikliklerini ve altyapı yatırımlarını hayata geçirerek enerjide dışa bağımlılığını azaltabilir ve enerji güvenliğini güçlendirebilir." - Bahadır Sercan Gümüş

The increase in global storage ambition since COP29 comes down to two economies: China and the EU. 🔉 “Most other major solar markets still haven't set a 2030 storage target at all,” says author Dr Katye Altieri 4/7

With strong deployment outpacing storage targets, countries at #COP31 could set the agenda to keep them at pace and “give investors the certainty to build,” adds Dr Katye Altieri 5/7

Batteries have increased 17-fold in just five years. In 2025, the world's new storage capacity hit a record 118 GW, dominated by batteries 🔋 Yet national ambitions still fall 45% short of the global goal. 2/7

The national targets also trail behind BNEF’s market forecasts, which expect 1,200 GW of batteries alone by 2030. 2026 is already forecast to become another record year in storage additions. Modest growth from here would meet the storage pledge. 3/7
