Background
According to the Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EMRA) the plant's license has been in effect since January 2014.[2] The plant powers the Eti Maden boron and acid factory in Bandırma.[3] The power station ran on domestic coal.[4]
In March 2016, an explosion in the plant's boiler caused production at the factory to be shut down temporarily.[3]
As of November 2024, the government of Türkiye reportedly planned to privatize ETİ Maden.[5]
According to Eti Maden's 2024 Sustainability Report, an enclosed coal storage area was installed at the Bandirma power station.[6]
