Turkey Investigates 66 Power Firms Over Failure to Follow Grid Orders

Turkey opened an investigation into dozens of power producers which it alleges failed to adjust their output to balance supply and demand, underlining one of the main challenges as intermittent renewables get a larger share of electricity markets.

The country’s Energy Market Regulatory Authority wrote to 66 companies in recent weeks to demand explanations about why, according to the watchdog, orders to adjust power output between 2020 and 2024 weren’t obeyed, according to people familiar with the matter and a letter seen by Bloomberg.
