Kerem Tufan's Note: International contracts like this are pivotal for energy sector companies, reinforcing capital cycles and global expansion strategies. However, potential volatility in the Turkish Lira and energy costs over the extended delivery period through 2028 introduces financial risks. From a banking perspective, despite tightening SME credit conditions, such projects may still create opportunities for specialized financing solutions.
