Public policy analysis basically provides researchers and other relevant actors with comprehensive output to comprehend the effectiveness and the efficiency of the policies. Renewable energy sources are highly crucial especially for the maintenance of sustainable development. Therefore, most of the countries like Turkey, attempt and even struggle to have a functional renewable energy policy with the aim of having diverse energy sources and infrastructure. International actors such as the European Union (EU) have huge and practical impacts on the public policy making process of many countries. In this fashion, the renewable energy policy of Turkey is mostly shaped or formulated according to the EU acquis. The study is a significant effort to scrutinize the renewable energy policy of Turkey by benefiting from the energy chapter of regular progress reports (country reports) published by the European Commission which is the executive body of the EU. The fundamental aim of the study is to put forth the determinations and the expectations of the EU on renewable energy policy to conduct an extensive analysis. In this manner, various policy suggestions regarding renewable energy policy of Turkey is proposed and presented in order to make encouraging contributions.
