Turkey plans to build three nuclear power plants by 2035, with the first, Akkuyu, set to start generating electricity in 2025. Once fully operational, Akkuyu will supply 10% of Turkey's electricity and reduce natural gas imports by 7-7.5 billion cubic meters annually, saving the country about $3 billion. Two additional plants are planned, in Sinop and Thrace, to increase nuclear energy capacity to 7,200 megawatts.
