Utility and commercial-scale ground-mounted solar power plants across Turkey. Full EPC with EPDK licensing and YEKDEM feed-in tariff support.
Turkey has vast land resources in Anatolia and the Mediterranean interior that are ideal for ground-mount solar. Average irradiance in central and southern Turkey exceeds 1,550 kWh/m²/year — among the highest in Europe. With YEKDEM feed-in tariffs and rising electricity prices, ground-mount solar plants in Turkey deliver internal rates of return (IRR) of 15–22%, making them exceptional investment vehicles for Turkish and international capital alike.
We have completed ground-mount projects ranging from 50 kWp unlicensed installations to 1.2 MWp EPDK-licensed plants. Our full EPC service covers everything from feasibility study and land due diligence to civil works, panel installation, grid connection and long-term O&M.

Licensed ground-mount plants in Turkey can earn a guaranteed USD feed-in tariff of $0.133/kWh for 10 years under YEKDEM. This USD-denominated revenue stream provides natural hedge against Turkish lira volatility and makes projects bankable for international project finance. After the 10-year YEKDEM period, plants sell at market rates which are projected to remain very competitive.
A 500 kWp fixed-tilt plant in the Mediterranean region costs approximately ₺6.5M all-in. At 775,000 kWh/year generation and YEKDEM rate, annual revenue is approximately $103,000 (≈₺3.3M at 2026 rates). After O&M costs, net annual cash flow exceeds ₺2.8M. Simple payback: under 3 years. Project IRR over 20 years: approximately 19%.
YEKDEM provides $0.133/kWh for licensed solar plants, guaranteed for 10 years, paid in USD regardless of market electricity price fluctuations. Applications are submitted to EPDK and reviewed quarterly.
EPDK preliminary licence: 3–6 months. After receiving preliminary licence, 24 months to commission the plant for a full generation licence. We manage all EPDK correspondence and filings as part of our EPC service.
Yes. Foreign investors can own solar plants in Turkey through a Turkish limited company (LTD ŞTİ). We can advise on company formation and partner with specialised Turkish corporate lawyers for investor onboarding.

A ground-mount solar power plant is an electricity-generation facility built on non-agricultural land suited to energy investment, at scales ranging from hundreds of kWp to multiple MW. In line with Turkey's 2030 renewable targets, ground-mount solar offers attractive opportunities for both private and institutional investors. For investors holding idle land in inland provinces such as Isparta and Burdur, a ground-mount plant can become a powerful source of passive income.
* Based on a ₺3.50/kWh grid sale tariff, a 15% loss factor and a 1,550 kWh/kWp yield typical of southern Turkey.
There are two main regulatory pathways for ground-mount solar projects in Turkey:
The technical and legal criteria that determine whether a parcel of land is suitable for a solar plant include:
For commissioned ground-mount plants we provide full operation and maintenance (O&M) services:
