Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources

The Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources (Turkish: Enerji ve Tabii Kaynaklar Bakanlığı) is the government ministry of Republic of Turkey responsible for natural resources and energy in Turkey.[1] The ministry is headed by Alparslan Bayraktar.[2] Despite the ministry being represented on the Climate Change and Air Management Coordination Board, the European Commission has criticised the lack of co-ordination between policy on climate change in Turkey and the energy policy of Turkey.[3] The net zero by 2053 target was reportedly set without consulting the ministry, and as of 2023 the ministry has not published a plan to meet the target.[4]
