Exergy International, a global provider of clean energy technology and a leader in advanced geothermal ORC power plants, has signed an agreement with Maren Maras Elektrik Üretim A.S. for the supply of two new geothermal power plants in Turkey. Located in the Aydin region, the 33 MWe Emir GPP and the 13 MWe Nezihe Beren 2 GPP are expected to be commissioned by November 2025.
These two binary geothermal power plants will utilize Exergy's advanced ORC technology based on the Radial Outflow Turbine. The Emir GPP will feature a configuration with three turbines and two generators, while the Nezihe Beren 2 GPP will have one turbine and one generator. Both power plants will use air cooled condensers. Exergy's technology will harness Maren's geothermal resources at maximum efficiency and deliver clean baseload power to the local grid. The project involves the local manufacturing of the turbines, generators and other related equipment at Exergy's subsidiary in İzmir, allowing the customer to benefit from Made-in-Turkey incentives. Once in operation, the two power plants will enable saving approximately 134,000 tons of CO2 emission per year, avoiding an equivalent fossil fuel power generation.
