Turkey is Europe’s top coal power producer. Will COP31 change that?
Turkey operates 37 coal-fired power plants, making it Europe’s largest producer of electricity from coal. As the country prepares for the COP31 climate summit, Greenpeace Türkiye calls the event a turning point for a cleaner future. The group urges leaders to move beyond fossil fuels and invest in renewable energy. Without a shift, experts warn, Turkey’s reliance on coal will continue to harm both the environment and public health.
