The rise of renewable energy has had both positive and negative impacts on the Turkish community in Germany. On the positive side, the transition to renewable energy has created many new job opportunities, particularly in the solar and wind energy sectors. This has provided employment opportunities for both Turkish immigrants and their descendants in Germany.

On the negative side, some members of the Turkish community in Germany who work in the traditional energy sectors, such as coal and oil, have been negatively affected by the transition to renewable energy. This is because the traditional energy sector is being phased out as Germany shifts towards a more sustainable energy system. As a result, some members of the Turkish community have lost their jobs or are at risk of losing them.

Another issue is that the rise of renewable energy has resulted in higher electricity prices for households. This can be a particular burden for low-income families, including many Turkish immigrants and their descendants in Germany.
