Turkey is central for European energy interests. It is not only a significant energy consumer, but it is also at the heart of energy geopolitics, being a central transit state located at the intersection of the east-western and north-southern energy corridors in the Mediterranean and Eurasia.
In light of this, the Stiftung Mercator, IAI, the IPC, and the ECFR are organising a conference on how the EU and Turkey can enhance their cooperation in the energy sector.
