Number of Electric Charging Points in Turkey Reaches 27 Thousand

Development of Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure in Turkey

In recent years, in Turkey electric vehicle a visible presence in the sector development This development is not only limited to the increase in the number of vehicles, but also shows itself with the strengthening of the charging infrastructure. According to the data of EPDK (Energy Market Regulatory Authority), the total 27.000 charging points This is a result of significant investments made to meet the needs of electric vehicle users.

Record Increase in Number of Charging Points

This increase has also brought about a significant increase in the number of charging points. Currently, in Turkey, every 6 charging socket for 1 electric vehicles This rate is quite high compared to European Union countries.

Regional Distribution and Charging Infrastructure

The density of charging points varies in different regions of Turkey. The provinces with the most charging points are:

  • Istanbul: 7.641 charging points
  • Ankara: 3.062 charging points
  • Antalya: 1.527 charging points

Regulation and Supervision

EMRA carries out strict inspections to improve the quality of electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Failure to fulfill obligations The licenses of 30 companies have been terminated. This is an important step taken to ensure that consumers receive quality and affordable charging services. Such practices of EPDK increase reliability in the sector and reinforce users' trust in electric vehicles.

Future Vision and Investments

Electric vehicle and charging station investments in Turkey are expected to increase in the coming years. Developments in the energy sector, combined with technology and infrastructure investments, will contribute to the spread of electric vehicles. In particular, state-supported projects and incentives play an important role in this area. In this context, it is aimed to provide more charging stations and better services for electric vehicle owners.

As a result

Electric vehicle and charging infrastructure in Turkey has made significant progress in recent years. Increasing number of charging points, fast charging opportunities and effective control mechanisms are among the factors that encourage the use of electric vehicles. With further investment and development in the coming years, Turkey will continue to become an important market for electric vehicles.
