Solar power suits Turkey''s sunny climate, especially in the South Eastern Anatolia and Mediterranean regions. Solar power is a growing part of renewable energy in the country, with over 20 gigawatts (GW) of solar panels generating 6% of the country''s electricity. Solar thermal is also important. Although similarly sunny, Turkey has installed far less solar power than Spain.
