It is predicted that the number of electric vehicles in Turkey will reach 2035 million 3 thousand 214 and the number of charging sockets will reach 273 thousand 347 in 934.
According to the Electric Vehicle and Charging Infrastructure Projection prepared by the Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EMRA), while the number of electric vehicles is increasing rapidly, the increase in charging points is considered a positive step for the development of the e-mobility ecosystem.
In the projection, increasing the number of electric vehicles in Turkey and quickly expanding the charging infrastructure throughout the country is considered as a strategic goal.
While these vehicles stand out with their environmentally friendly features, they are also socially adopted.
EMRA's projection includes three scenarios under the headings of low, medium and high regarding the number of electric vehicles and charging infrastructure.
In this context, according to EMRA, in 2025 the number of electric vehicles will be 202 thousand 30 in the low scenario, 269 thousand 154 in the medium scenario, and 361 thousand 893 in the high scenario.
The number of electric vehicles will reach 2030 thousand 776 in the low scenario, 362 million 1 thousand 321 in the medium scenario and 932 million 1 thousand 679 in the high scenario in 600.
In 2035, the number of electric vehicles will increase to 1 million 779 thousand 488 in the low scenario, 3 million 307 thousand 577 in the medium scenario, and 4 million 214 thousand 273 in the high scenario.
On the other hand, an increase in the number of charging stations and sockets is expected with the development of work on charging infrastructure.
The number of charging sockets in 2025 is calculated as 34 thousand 278 in the low scenario, 46 thousand 70 in the medium scenario and 61 thousand 897 in the high scenario.
According to 2030 predictions, the number of charging sockets will be 83 thousand 543 in the low scenario, 142 thousand 824 in the medium scenario and 181 thousand 274 in the high scenario.
The number of charging sockets is expected to be 2035 thousand 146 in the low scenario, 916 thousand 273 in the medium scenario and 76 thousand 347 in the high scenario in 934.
Türkiye IS IN GOOD CONDITION IN TERMS OF THE NUMBER OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES PER SOCKET
In the projection prepared for the use, development and charging infrastructure of electric vehicles in Turkey, it is predicted that the total electricity consumption from electric vehicles will vary between 2035 and 3,98 terawatt hours in 9,39.
We are witnessing a period in which the electric vehicle ecosystem is rapidly developing and electric vehicles are becoming more visible in daily life.
According to EMRA, electric vehicle charging network infrastructure plays a key role in power efficiency and carbon footprint reduction goals by forming the basis of an environmentally friendly transportation system.
In addition, the advanced power infrastructure as well as the renewable energy potential in Turkey offer a valuable opportunity to support the widespread use of electric vehicles.
While there were 14 thousand 896 electric vehicles in Turkey at the beginning of last year, today this number has reached 93 thousand 973.
On the other hand, as a result of the investments made by charging network operators licensed by EMRA, 2023 thousand 3 charging points will be in service across Turkey at the beginning of 81, while as of the beginning of April, there will be 11 thousand 412 slow charging (AC) and 5 thousand 821 fast charging (DC). A total of 17 thousand 233 charging points were reached.
According to EMRA, this rate is 13,75 on average in European countries and is good in terms of the number of electric vehicles per socket in Turkey.
