Turkey, Nigde: GE has announced being selected by Ecogreen Energy to supply power conversion equipment for a 100 MW Turkish solar power plant in Nigde.

The Nigde Bor solar power plant is part of YEKA-GES4 project launched in 2022 by Turkey’s Ministry of Energy.

It will enable the energy transition in the country and beyond, by helping Turkey continue the expansion of renewable energy resources and add 10 GW of solar capacity between 2017-27. According to IEA, Turkey’s solar energy capacity is projected to reach 52.9 GW with an increase of approximately 500 % by 2035.

“The potential for solar energy in Turkey is a reality. We are thrilled to be partnering with Ecogreen Energy on the projects and look forward to more opportunities to increase the penetration of renewable energy in Turkey and beyond,” said Prakash Chandra, CEO of Renewable Hybrids at GE.

GE will supply Flexinverter Solar Power Station technology, an integrated containerized solution that combines a solar inverter, a medium voltage power transformer, and an optional MV ring main unit, installed into a standard 20-feet ISO high cube container.
