Project-level coal details

  • Coal source(s): domestic

Background

In August 2006, a TKI auction to build a mine and mine-to-mouth plant at a 129-million-ton lignite field in Eastern Thrace's Tekirdağ province was won by Başat Enerji (which is apparently a subsidiary of the Taşyapı Group), which planned to build a 300-MW coal-fired plant. The plant was scheduled to go online in 2011.[1][2]

However, as of 2014 the project has not moved forward, and was likely cancelled.
