Türkiye’s wind operation and maintenance market reaches $350 million

Türkiye’s annual onshore wind maintenance market is estimated at $350 million, based on international benchmark prices.

A survey by the Turkish Wind Energy Association covered 472 operating wind farms and more than 5,000 turbines, with over 16 gigawatts of installed mechanical capacity.

Turbines that have operated for at least 15 years account for 2,512 megawatts, or 15.5 percent of the fleet.

If service agreements end after 15 years, contracts worth about $284 million could open to new tenders by 2041.

The survey says turbines rated 2 to 4 megawatts make up nearly half of the estimated annual market.

The association’s chairman said stronger maintenance, repair and refurbishment are needed to preserve the value of Türkiye’s wind investments.

The survey highlights the sector’s growing technical needs as older turbines reach the 15-year mark.
