Turkey has no planned natural gas price change for October or November, Energy and Natural Resources Minister Alparslan Bayraktar said. He added that officials are monitoring developments and budget conditions.

Bayraktar said the electricity support limit, set at four thousand kilowatt-hours in 2026, will be reviewed for 2027 and may fall below that level. The limit was five thousand kilowatt-hours in 2025.

He said a similar measure for natural gas took effect in April 2026, removing households with consumption above a set threshold from the support program.
