Background
The original İÇDAŞ Biga power station consists of a 3 x 135 MW subcritical coal plant, built in 2005-2009.[2] It is also known as İÇDAŞ Değirmencik power station.[3] In December 2007, industrial conglomerate İÇDAŞ received permits to build a three-unit, 405-MW coal-fired power plant as part of the larger İÇDAŞ Değirmencik Integrated Plant that it was planning to build in Çanakkale province — along with a shipyard, port facilities, and a steel mill. Although the plant was licensed at 405 MW, it was built at 389 MW.[4]
In April 2007, industrial conglomerate İÇDAŞ received permits to build the two-unit, 1,200-MW, US$1 billion İÇDAŞ Bekirli power station. The first 600-MW unit went online in December 2011; the second unit was originally scheduled to go online in the last quarter of 2013, but was in fact brought online in May 2015.[5][6][7] Attempts by environmental groups in 2007-10 to stop the plant's permitting process were unsuccessful.[8]
Funding for the project was provided by İş Bankası.[9]
