Wartsila signed contracts to supply the equipment for an extension to the Rasa Enerji power plant in Van, in the east of Turkey, and for the Naksan power plant project in Gaziantep, located close to the Syrian border in the southeast of Turkey.
A third installation is for the Marmara Pamuklu power station in Corlu, close to Tekirdag, which is located in the northwest of Turkey. Most recently, Wartsila has been contracted to supply equipment for the HG Enerji power plant project in Gediz, in the province of Kutahya in the Aegean region of the country.
The Rasa Enerji extension order consists of three Wartsila 20V34SG gas-powered engines, as well as the compressed air, charge air and exhaust systems for the plant. This additional 25MW will bring the total power plant output to 106MW, to be fed to the national grid.
The Naksan power plant project is being developed by Naksan Plastik San Ve Tic, who will use the electricity and heat generated by the plant for its own packaging manufacturing processes. Any surplus electricity will be sold to the national grid. The contract calls for Wartsila to supply the engineering and equipment, consisting of two Wartsila 20V34SG engines running on gas, as well as the compressed air system, radiators and charge air filters. The combined out put will be approximately 18MW.
The third Wartsila contract is for three Wartsila 20V34SG engines to be installed in an extension to the Marmara Pamuklu power station in Corlu, Turkey. The engines will be run on natural gas and will have a combined output of 25MW. The contract has been awarded by Marmara Pamuklu Mensucat San ve Tic, a textile and paper producer who will use heat from the power plant for its paper and combined cycle processing. The electricity generated will be sold to the national grid. Wartsila has previously supplied the generating equipment for the company’s original power plant, and the latest extension will now bring the total output of the plant to 78MWe including 6MWe from a steam turbine.
The latest project contract has been placed by HG Enerji Elektrik Uretimi Sanayi Ve Ticaret, a company specialising in textiles. The order consists of six Wartsila 20V34SG engines running on gas and producing a total output of 50MW, plus all ancillary equipment with the exception of the boiler. The electricity generated will be sold to the national grid.
