At a Glance
13 Siemens SWT 101 turbines with 3,000 kW capacity each
Net electricity generation of 144,400 MWh per year
Reduction of 62,284 tCOe2 per year
Projects Benefits
Displaces carbon emissions that would have been generated by an energy grid predominantly run on fossil fuels
Creation of local jobs
Source of affordable and accesible clean energy
About renewable
These projects create the infrastructure needed to generate renewable energy harnessed from natural resources like the sun or wind. Once these sources are in place, they become a permanent source of clean energy.
How it works
Project developer funds the installation of wind turbines at the wind farm
Local community members are hired to run and maintain the wind farm
Clean and renewable energy generated by the windfarm is provided to the Turkish power grid, displacing the need for energy generated at fossil fuel based power plants
Carbon emissions are reduced, and clean renewable energy is being used to meet the electricity demands for the Turkisgh power grid
