Bayraktar contributed to the ″Turkish Energy Transition 1.0″, leading up to the guidelines of the “National Energy and Mining Strategy” and beyond. The pre-2016 energy outlook in Türkiye was a period of acknowledgment and anticipation for a roadmap to efficient energy supply, and clean energy for the future. Following up from the National Energy and Mining Strategy of Türkiye announced in 2017, as Minister, Bayraktar announced plans to carry Türkiye onto the next phase, namely ″Turkish Energy Transition 2.0,″ prioritising policies around supply security, decreasing foreign dependency, diversifying Türkiye’s energy mix by increasing the availability of renewables through a relative transition in achieving net-zero targets set for 2035 and thereon 2053

Bayraktar′s so far successful outlook is an implication of his position on a SMART energy transition which is responsive, rational, flexible and digital energy transition in order to reach net-zero targets and a decarbonised economy.

Bayraktar aims to also increase the localisation of energy consumption through investment projects, allowing domestic production to create job opportunities while also reducing foreign dependence, enabling the security of supply, diversifying the energy mix, as well as ensuring a competitive yet safe market for investment. These goals are in line with those from his tenure as Deputy Minister.

Bayraktar is often a keynote speaker and contributor at international energy events, advancing his career as a key player for the future of energy, in achieving carbon neutrality goals, highlighting the importance of nuclear energy as a transition tool to reaching clean energy.
