The facility costing approximately $900 million is being developed to meet the region’s growing electricity demand and has the capacity to provide over 50 per cent of the electricity in Ankara.
The project represents one of the largest investments in Turkey in recent years. The state-of-the art power plant will use combined cycle units supplied by GE. Mott MacDonald will review and verify the power plant’s design, carry out factory inspections and monitor construction on site.
Cetin Atmaca, Mott MacDonald’s power manager for Turkey, said: “We are delighted to be working on such a prestigious project with Gama Enerji. It has been extremely satisfying as we have been involved in the project throughout its development, supporting Gama Enerji’s project team.”
The project is due to be completed by the end of 2016.
