Hamitabat Natural Gas Combine Cycle Power Plant
Hamitabat Natural Gas Combined Cycle Power Plant has been constructed by the BBC-ENKA Consortium. Installed capacity of the Plant is 1156 MW. Hamitabat Power Plant is composed of 4 combined cycle blocks that each block consists of 2 gas turbines, 2 gas turbine generators. 2 boilers, 1 condenser, 1 steam turbine and 1 steam turbine generator. (4 block, 8 gas turbines – 4 steam turbines)
Hamitabat Power Plant was designed as its nominal installed capacity is 1120 MW and this installed capacity was increased to 1144 MW after renovation on A and B Blocks in 2009 and increased to 1156 MW after renovation on D Block in 2010.
Hamitabat Power Plant was privatized by Turkish Privatization Administration in May 2013 and after hand over agreement in August 2013 it was handed over to Limak Doğal Gaz Elektrik Üretim A.Ş. subsidiary of Limak Yatırım Enerji Üretim İşletme Hizmetleri ve İnşaat A.Ş.
After privatization of the Plant, Limak commenced Hamitabat Power Plant Replanting Project which also intends to contribute current account deficit of Turkish Republic. After Replanting Project, the efficiency of the plant will increase to 60.2% by consuming less natural gas and produce more power.
