Qatar Solar Technologies (QSTec) and Turkish state energy company Elektrik Uretim Anonim Sirketi have partnered to explore areas of mutual interest to develop Turkey’s solar sector, a report said.
    
Turkey is targeting more than 3GW of installed solar capacity, with major plans to back renewable energy investment, reported Gulf Times.

QSTec has also signed MoUs with Turkish industrial groups Bendis Enerji and Fernas Group to co-operate in solar energy industry investments, according to the report.

“QSTec and its partners are delighted to be working with Turkey to assist in enabling its full solar energy potential. Turkey’s high solar irradiation is excellent for producing clean solar energy and by working together with the right researchers, investors, and local companies, we can make a substantial contribution to Turkey’s renewable energy goals,” QSTec chairman and CEO Dr Khalid K Al-Hajri was quoted as saying in the report.
