Grid-connected electricity generation from renewable sources

The project produces electricity from renewable energy sources using wind as the power source and to contribute to Türkiye’s growing electricity demand through sustainable and low carbon technology. The project displaces the same amount of electricity generated by the grid dominated by fossil fired power plants.

SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy

During construction and operational period, the project has created employment opportunities for the local community. The project contributes to the economic development of the region by providing sustainable energy resources. The positions at the wind projects require skilled workers, which will be achieved by adequate training. The project provides workers with a safe and healthy work environment and is not complicit in exposing workers to unsafe work environments.

SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth

The project contributes to improving the environmental situation in the region and in the country as avoiding fossil fuel-based electricity will enhance the air quality and help to reduce the adverse effects on the climate. Through renewable technologies and wind-based electricity sustainable and climate friendly development is promoted. While emission reduction is realized, technology transfer is also realized as benefitting from wind energy.

SDG 13: Climate Action
