Turkey introduces net metering for residential PV and new rules for unlicensed solar
The government has finally issued a net metering scheme for solar systems not exceeding 10 kW of generation capacity – the country’s first attempt to support small scale PV. New rules for larger, unlicensed projects have also been introduced, with the size limit for eligible systems raised to 5 MW.

‘Unlicensed’ PV projects in Turkey can now have a generation capacity of up to 5 MW.

The long-expected scheme, for which the EPDK issued a first draft in January 2018, will enable Turkish homeowners and businesses to install PV on rooftops or facades without having to receive official approval, and to sell excess power to distributors.
Now, we'll witness a real upwards trend in the solar industry. Just imagine, you can use your AC without thinking about the electricity bill at the end of the month.
Btw, we've officially crossed the 5 GW line. It seems that solar power is still a very attractive investment in Turkey even though Lira-Dollar rate went down significantly.
