Turkey’s Energy Policy: Prospects and Options
Turkey’s Energy Policy: Prospects and Options

Summary/Abstract: Turkey has emerged as an important actor, as a consumer, transporter, investor, regional hub and security provider in energy geopolitics. Various recent energy deals Turkey has concluded are all adding to Turkey’s potential to expand its geostrategic weight. In this new landscape, Turks are increasingly acting in pursuit of their own self-interest rather than following the dictates from Washington or Brussels. On the basis of a thorough elaboration of these current and future trends the paper concludes with a number of policy recommendations for government and business leaders in promoting further cooperation and partnership rather than fanning confrontation in search of energy security for all players.
