The 33 MWe Emir GPP and the 13 MWe Nezihe Beren 2 GPP will utilize Exergy's advanced ORC technology based on the Radial Outflow Turbine. The Emir GPP will feature a configuration with three turbines and two generators, while the Nezihe Beren 2 GPP will have one turbine and one generator. Both power plants will use air cooled condensers.
Exergy's technology will harness Maren's geothermal resources at maximum efficiency and deliver clean baseload power to the local grid.
The project involves the local manufacturing of the turbines, generators and other related equipment at Exergy's subsidiary in İzmir, allowing the customer to benefit from Made-in-Turkey incentives. Once in operation, the two power plants will enable saving approximately 134,000 tons of CO2 emission per year, avoiding an equivalent fossil fuel power generation.
“This agreement marks another significant achievement for Exergy in Turkey, a region where we have 23 geothermal power plants operational in our portfolio, with several more nearing completion” said Luca Pozzoni, General Manager of Exergy International. “We are thrilled to expand our collaboration with Maren and further contribute to Turkey's sustainable energy goals.”
Kipaş Holding, one of Turkey's most dynamic companies at the forefront of investing in the geothermal market in Turkey, is the parent company of Maren Maraş Elektrik Üretim A.Ş. The group currently operates ten geothermal power plants, three of which were supplied by Exergy. With this new order, the number of Exergy-supplied power plants will increase to five, reinforcing Exergy's long-standing collaboration with one of its important customers.
