SOM INVESTMENT ACCELERATES INVESTMENTS IN THE ENERGY SECTOR WITH NEW YEKA (RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCE AREA) PROJECTS

SOM Investment, one of the leading companies in renewable energy investments, continues its YEKA (Renewable Energy Resource Area) projects without slowing down. Having previously received the G3-Ağrı Solar Power Plant license in the YEKA 3 competitions, SOM Investment announced that it will invest 112,500.00 USD with its project partners.

SOM Investment expanded its portfolio with the licenses it received from RHG Enertürk within the scope of YEKA 3. These licenses include projects with a total capacity of 135 MWe, including 20 MWe G3-Antalya-1, 20 MWe G3-Antalya-2, 20 MWe G3-Van-1, 20 MWe G3-Van-2, 10 MWe G3-Van-3, 15 MWe G3-Muş-1 and 30 MWe R3-Van RES. In this context, the company will deposit a 134,000,000 TL deposit with the General Directorate of Energy Affairs of the Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources of the Republic of Turkey.

With these and other projects that SOM Investment plans to put into operation in 2025-2026, a total of 369,221,570 KWh of electricity production is targeted annually. When all YEKA projects are completed, approximately 3,883,467.9 tons of CO2 emissions will be prevented annually. This value is equivalent to the carbon sequestration of approximately 199,105 trees.

SOM Investment CEO Samet Koç said, “We are very proud to contribute to Turkey’s renewable energy targets with our YEKA projects. Thanks to these projects, we both support environmental sustainability and strengthen our country’s energy independence.”

SOM Investment will continue to lead Turkey’s energy transformation with these major investments in the renewable energy sector.
