Türkiye opens second 2026 call for its industrial green transformation grants
TÜBİTAK has opened its second 2026 funding call for industrial green transformation projects, part of a World Bank-backed program supporting the shift to cleaner, more resource-efficient manufacturing.
According to a piece published Sunday by Hulya Omur Uylas on Anadolu Agency, Türkiye's science and technology agency TUBITAK has opened its second call of the year for its Green Transformation in Industry Program, offering funding for projects aimed at making manufacturing cleaner and more resource-efficient.
The program runs under the country's Green Industry Project, developed in partnership with the World Bank to accelerate the environmental transition of the country's industrial sector. This round will fund research and development across six priority areas: climate change, environment and biodiversity; circular and clean economy; clean, accessible and secure energy supply; sustainable agriculture; and smart, sustainable transportation. Applications will be accepted through October 12, with full eligibility criteria and guidelines published on TUBITAK's website.
Industry and Technology Minister Mehmet Fatih Kacır announced the call, saying, "We will continue support for industry that uses resources efficiently and produces high value-added products." The program is one of several TUBITAK grant mechanisms aimed at helping Turkish manufacturers reduce their environmental footprint while staying competitive as global supply chains face growing pressure to decarbonize.
