Currently, Turkey has no operating commercial nuclear reactors. However, four VVER-1200 reactors at the Akkuyu Nuclear Power Plant, are currently under construction and expected to come online in 2023.[1] The government is aiming for 20 GW of nuclear.[2]

The nuclear power debate has a long history, with the 2018 construction start in Mersin Province being the sixth major attempt to build a nuclear power plant since 1960.[3] Nuclear power has been criticised as very expensive to taxpayers.[4]

Plans for Sinop Nuclear Power Plant and another at İğneada have stalled.[5] The country is considering buying small modular reactors.[6]
