Astor Enerji has completed its solar power plant project in Ankara Bala, targeting an annual electricity production of 27.5 million kWh and savings of $2.25 million.

The “BALA GES” investment received provisional acceptance from TEDAŞ on July 9, 2024, and is now operational. With a capacity of 13.950 MWe/17.73 MWp, this solar facility aims to generate approximately 27 million kWh of electricity annually, resulting in significant cost savings based on electricity prices as of June 2024. This initiative is expected to prevent around 17,500 tons of carbon dioxide emissions each year.

In addition to the existing 6.6 MW rooftop solar power production, the new “BALA GES” facility will help Astor Enerji achieve its carbon-neutral goals by sourcing all its electricity from renewable energy. This will reduce electricity costs and allow for the sale of generated electricity in line with relevant laws and regulations.
