In these financially strained times it is unusual to hear of a country doing really well, but the economic news from Turkey is well above average, especially when compared with the rest of its European neighbours.

Turkey is both the fourth fastest growing economy in the world and the fastest growing economy in Europe – an enviable record indeed.

And as Turkeys economy grows, this brings with it the inevitable increase of energy consumption and demand. Given the uncertainty in many of the countries that provide gas and oil, plus ecological concerns, the Turkish Government is increasing investment in renewable energy sources.

With one foot in Asia and the other in Europe, Turkey hopes to become a centre for the provision of wind power technology and equipment, and plans to increase its own wind power usage dramatically over the next few years.

All of this bodes well for the economic future of Turkey, and also for those who are thinking of investing in property in the country.
