Rotor Elektrik Uretim Osmaniye Wind Farm Project

Project Information:

Methodologies: 
ACM0002/version 7, Sectoral Scope: 1

Project Description: 
Located in the Gokcedag Mountains of Osmaniye province in southeast Turkey, “Rotor Elektrik Uretim Osmaniye Wind Farm”–Project consists of 54 wind turbines with a rated power of 2.5 MW each, providing a total installed capacity of 135 MW and an expected annual electricity generation of 466,742MWh . The turbines are General Electric (GE) Energy model 2.5xl, and will be installed and operated by Rotor Elektrik Uretim A.S., a subsidiary of Zorlu Enerji Elektrik Uretim A.S. Turkey. The project will supply the Turkish National Grid with zero emission energy, generated by the wind resources of the Gokçedag Mountain area. Electricity currently generated by the grid is relatively carbon intensive, with a combined margin emission factor of 0.648 tCO2/MWh. The project is expected to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases by an estimated 302,675 tCO2e/year during the first 7-year crediting period. Apart from the wind turbines, the project site includes transmission line poles, a switchboard area, and a prefabricated building for employee needs during operation. The plant will be connected to the grid through the 154 kVA Bahçe Transformer Centre via a 7.5 km power transmission line. The project contributes significantly to the mitigation of climate change and the region’s sustainable development and is designed as a voluntary Gold-Standard project.
