Abstract

Today, renewable energy technologies are receiving more attention than ever due to the destructive environmental and atmospheric impacts of fossil fuels. It is essential to consider renewable energy resources as strategic opportunities to improve countries’ quality of life. Resources such as photovoltaic, solar, tidal, wind, and hydrogen are still in the developmental stage. As economic and technological growth continue and the population increases, energy consumption is rising annually. Renewable energy will also address energy security concerns. In Turkey, energy consumption relies heavily on expensive imported fossil fuels, which significantly affect the domestic economy and contribute to air pollution. Therefore, green energy resources are crucial to Turkey's transition to clean, sustainable energy. Turkey is rich in natural resources, yet worldwide energy consumption, including in Turkey, remains primarily dependent on fossil fuels. This article provides an overview of Turkey's current energy consumption and highlights the global energy resource landscape. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
