List of power stations in Turkey

The most important power stations in Turkey are listed here. Turkey generates about 300 TWh of electricity per year.

High carbon emissions

Coal

All operational coal-fired power stations over 50 MW are listed below.

Five plants were shut down at the end of 2019 to reduce air pollution, leaving total installed capacity at about 17 GW, with 1.3 GW under construction. However, government may continue subsidizing some of the most polluting plants in 2020. In 2019 almost 500 million lira was paid to them.

In 2017, imported hard coal generated 51 TWh and local coal (almost all lignite) 44 TWh of electricity.

Hard coal is estimated to emit 1126 g CO2-eq./kWh and lignite 1062 g CO2-eq./kWh.Atilgan et al (2016), p. 177
