Turkish
energy company Zorlu Enerji said on
Monday its wholly-owned unit Zorlu Jeotermal
Enerji Elektrik Uretim has received a preliminary
licence for a 24.9 MW geothermal power
plant in the western Turkish province of Manisa.
Turkey’s energy market regulator has granted the
company preliminary licence for the Alasehir 2
project, Zorlu Enerji said in a bourse filing.
The Turkish electricity market legislation
requires power project developers to obtain
preliminary licences for a period of up to 24
months during which they have to complete the
necessary permit procedures for their projects and
apply for a generation licence.
Zorlu Enerji, part of local conglomerate Zorlu, is
active in the design, installation, operation of
power plants and electricity sales through its
subsidiaries. The company also explores, produces
and distributes natural gas in Turkey. Its unit
Zorlu Jeotermal Enerji specializes in the
