Executive Summary 5

Cooling-related electricity use in Türkiye is on the rise 9
 1.1 Cooling-related electricity use reached 10 TWh 9
 1.2 During peak cooling hours, more than one-tenth of electricity use goes to cooling 10
 1.3 Daily consumption increases by 1.25 times in summer 11
 1.4 Cooling accounts for 8% of Türkiye’s summer electricity consumption 11

Record temperatures push Türkiye's electricity demand to all-time highs 13 
 2.1. Average temperatures in Türkiye have been rising 13
 2.2 Türkiye faces growing peak demand as climate change intensifies 14
 2.3 Each 1 °C increase in air temperature triggers a need for 0.77 GW of new power plant capacity 16
 2.4 The gap between winter and summer peaks is widening 17

Türkiye’s need for cooling projected to grow further 19
 3.1 Total cooling demand could more than double by 2030 19
 3.2 Peak demand could increase by 50% by 2035 but can be met by solar 20 

Distributed solar and flexibility can ease Türkiye’s soaring cooling demands 22 
 4.1 Rooftop solar could ease the impact of the growing cooling demand 23
 4.2 An air conditioner database could support regional and national forecasting of cooling loads 24
 4.3 Energy storage systems can help balance supply and demand 25
 4.4 Demand-side management 26
