Polat Enerji was established in 2000 to invest in renewable energy resources. Our investments were initially focused on Turkey's wind potential. In a short period, we have built four wind energy and one solar energy power plant that generate clean energy.Our first wind power plant, Soma WPP, started commercial operation in 2009. Commissioning of Seyitali WPP and Poyraz WPP took place in 2011 and 2012 respectively. In 2013, Geycek WPP was taken under operation. Several extension projects were completed within our existing power plants in 2015-2016. Finally, our first solar power plant, Cıngıllı SPP was commissioned at the end of 2019. Soma WPP is Turkey's largest wind power plant with an installed capacity of 288,1 MW while Geycek WPP is the fourth largest wind power plant in the country with 168 MW of installed power. With all its wind energy investments, Polat Enerji is one of the biggest wind energy investors of Turkey. Polat Enerji generates approximately 1.6 billion kWh of electricity annually, meeting the electricity demand of 500,000 people. Every year, our wind power plants reduce approximately 1 million tons of carbon dioxide which can be eliminated by planting 40 million trees.
