Türkiye's hybrid solar capacity reached 1.4 GW by May 2025, despite a larger volume of granted licenses. The report highlights that hybrid solar systems significantly improve transmission line efficiency, particularly when paired with run-of-river hydroelectric and wind plants, increasing electricity delivery to the grid by an average of 14% in 2024.

The document evaluates the technical and economic performance of CCUS in power generation, highlighting that existing projects like Boundary Dam and Petra Nova have failed to meet theoretical capture rates. It notes that CCUS increases energy consumption by 20-30%, raises capital and operational costs significantly, and often facilitates enhanced oil recovery rather than permanent storage. Reclaim Finance concludes that CCUS in the power sector risks delaying the phase-out of fossil fuels and recommends that financial institutions prioritize mature sustainable energy sources like wind and solar.
