The project was submitted by RES in the wind capacity tenders that were organised by the Turkish Electricity Transmission Corporation (TEİAŞ) in 2017.

RES general manager Ugur Isik said: “The renewable energy market in Türkiye is set to continue to grow at pace and attract significant investment from companies such as Dost Enerji looking to support the move to a zero-carbon future.

“Işıklar is one of the first merchant projects with a negative bid to achieve its licence, this achievement demonstrates RES’ experience and expertise in bringing forward projects in the Turkish energy market.

“We look forward to continuing our relationship with Dost Enerji, supporting them to deliver Işıklar and working with them to maximise the value of their operational portfolio.”
