Energy and Infrastructure Market Outlook – Trends, Pipelines and Investor Appetite
This opening session sets the tone for the day, providing a high-level overview of Türkiye’s energy and infrastructure markets. Panellists will map the macroeconomic landscape, highlight emerging project pipelines beyond 2026, and examine which sectors are attracting international capital. Discussion will cover how investors are adapting deal structures and strategies in response to economic volatility, geopolitical uncertainty, and evolving regulation — giving attendees the context they need to get the most from the rest of the day.

The State of the Energy Transition in Türkiye – Renewable Energy, Storage, Hydrogen and Industrial Energy Solutions
Türkiye has one of the world’s most ambitious renewable energy targets, and this session takes stock of where the transition stands. Panellists will assess the current project pipeline across wind, solar, storage, and hydrogen, examining investment opportunities alongside the real challenges — grid infrastructure constraints, licensing bottlenecks, regulatory gaps, and financing complexity. A forward-looking session that separates genuine momentum from headline noise. The discussion will also explore the role of flexible power generation, grid balancing solutions, and emerging low-carbon technologies in supporting a secure, resilient and reliable energy transition.

SESSION 3 (11:50-12:30)

Infrastructure in Execution: PPP Deals, EPC Risk & Project Delivery Türkiye’s infrastructure pipeline is moving fast but execution is where deals are won and lost. This session brings together PPP specialists, EPC contractors, and project delivery experts to examine what is actually happening on the ground in 2025–2026 — from airport expansions and highway projects to the growing privatisation debate. The panel will address construction risk, technical due diligence, lender requirements, and the gap between a signed contract and a delivered asset, giving investors and developers a clear-eyed view of where the real challenges lie.

SESSION 4 (12:30-13:10)

From Appetite to Reality: The Sponsor View
This session flips the lens. Rather than hearing from banks and financiers about what they want to see, this panel gives energy developers and infrastructure sponsors the floor to say what the market gets wrong. Panellists will speak candidly about where financing falls short, how risk allocation creates dead lock, what deal structures actually work, and what banks and DFIs could do differently to accelerate project execution. A direct, practitioner-led conversation built on the premise that the people building these projects have something important to say.

SESSION 5 (14:10 – 14:50)

Financing the Pipeline: Capital Solutions for Energy and Infrastructure
With the project reality established in the morning, this session turns to capital. Bringing together development finance institutions, commercial banks, and sustainable finance specialists, the panel will examine how energy and infrastructure projects are being financed in practice — covering blended finance structures, guarantees, project bonds, and ESG-linked instruments. Discussion will focus on how evolving capital structures are mobilising investment, man aging currency and political risk, and meeting the sustainability expectations of international investors, with the Islamic finance dimension also explored.

SESSION 6 (14:50 – 15:30)

ECA-Led Capital & The Bankability Race
Export credit agencies have become central to how large-scale energy and infrastructure projects get financed in Türkiye — but not all projects make the cut. This session examines how ECAs are deploying capital, what co-financing structures are emerging, and how export finance is being used to bridge the gap between project ambition and bankable reality. Panellists will discuss eligibility, content requirements, risk cover, and the growing role of ECAs in green and hybrid assets, giving developers and sponsors a practical understanding of what it takes to get ECA support across the line.

SESSION 7 ( 15:30 – 16:10)
What Will Actually Get Built: Capital Flows, Bankability & Investment Priorities in Türkiye Solar + Storage
Türkiye has one of the world’s most ambitious solar and storage pipelines — but financing, capital discipline, and execution will determine which projects move from licence to operation. This closing session brings together developers, manufacturers, and financiers for a verdict on the market. Panellists will examine which business models are genuinely bankable, where investor confidence is strongest, what the next five years of capital flows look like, and — critically — what separates the projects that get built from the ones that don’t. The session that gives attendees the takeaway they will talk about long after the event.
