Bayraktar, in an interview with the British daily Financial Times, stated that negotiations were underway with ExxonMobil for 2.5 million tonnes of LNG, valued at approximately $1.1 billion. Noting that Ankara imports almost all of its natural gas needs, Bayraktar said that Türkiye aims to create a new supply portfolio without being dependent on a single supplier.
Nuclear energy plays an important role in reaching Türkiye's 2053 net zero emission target, with the country planning nuclear power plants in two other locations after the Akkuyu, which is under construction in Türkiye’s Mediterranean province of Mersin.
