EV charging prices in Turkey, October 2026: AC and DC per operator
Short answer
On 5 October 2026, public AC charging in Turkey cost 8.99–10.99 TL per kWh and DC fast charging 11.99–16.49 TL per kWh at the operators whose own price pages we could read. For a Tesla Model Y RWD that is about 120–147 TL per 100 km on AC and 161–221 TL on DC, against about 65 TL charged at home at the EPDK high-tier household price. Prices can vary by site, and idle fees apply when you stay plugged in after charging.

Prices per operator (5 October 2026)
Each figure below was read on the operator's own price page on 5 October 2026, in TL per kWh. Beefull and Petrol Ofisi state that VAT is included; the others don't say, but these are consumer prices. Several operators note that prices can differ by location: the app at the charger shows the price that applies.
- Petrol Ofisi e-POwer: AC 8.99, DC 11.99
- Astor Şarj: AC 9.89, DC 13.99
- Beefull: AC 9.90, DC 13.99
- Trugo: AC 9.95, DC 12.00–14.98 depending on location
- Otowatt: AC 10.99, DC 13.99 (AC 9.49 and DC 11.99 at selected sites)
- ZES: AC 10.99, DC-1 12.99, DC-2 16.49
Operators we couldn't read
We only list prices we read on the operator's own page. On 5 October we couldn't read one for Eşarj (the page loaded but the price fields were empty), Voltrun (the page was behind a bot check), Sharz.net (prices load only inside the browser app), Tesla Superchargers (Tesla shows prices per site in its app; tesla.com didn't load for us), and Shell Recharge and Opet (no Turkish price page found). We'll add them when they can be read; until then, check the operator's app.
Idle fees: the cost that isn't per kWh
Some operators charge you for staying plugged in after the session ends. ZES charges 150 TL after 15 minutes, rising to 500 TL after an hour. Beefull charges after 60 free minutes on AC and 15 free minutes on DC, from 150 TL up to 500 TL (AC) or 600 TL (DC). A forgotten car can cost more than the charge itself, so set a notification or move the car when charging ends.
What 100 km costs, and how the rules work
For a Tesla Model Y RWD (13.4 kWh/100 km, WLTP, measured at the wall): AC charging at 8.99–10.99 TL/kWh comes to about 120–147 TL per 100 km, DC at 11.99–16.49 TL/kWh to about 161–221 TL. Charged at home at the EPDK single-rate high-tier price (4.857 TL/kWh), the same 100 km costs about 65 TL.
Prices are set freely by each operator, not by EPDK. A change to EPDK's charging service regulation, reported by Anadolu Agency in February 2026, requires each operator to set one price for AC and one for DC, charged on the energy delivered, while allowing discounts by time of day or location.
