Hydroelectric Energy

Transforming Tarsus’s water potential into renewable energy with an installed capacity of 45 MW.

Located in the Tarsus district of Mersin, the Akhan I and Akhan II Hydroelectric Power Plants form an integrated renewable energy investment comprising two facilities with a total installed capacity of 45 MW.

The projects were developed through a comprehensive engineering and technical facility approach encompassing the assessment of the water resource’s energy potential, the development of hydraulic and electromechanical systems, the establishment of electricity generation infrastructure, and the safe and efficient operation of the power plants.

Project Scope

Core facility components of the Akhan I and Akhan II Hydroelectric Power Plants

The generation infrastructure of the two complementary hydroelectric power plants was planned through the combined assessment of site conditions, water regime, energy efficiency, operational safety and system continuity.

Hydraulic Structures

The hydraulic structures required for the controlled intake, conveyance and delivery of the water resource to the power generation systems were evaluated in accordance with site characteristics and operational requirements.

Akhan I Hydroelectric Power Plant

The hydraulic, mechanical and electrical systems of the Akhan I Hydroelectric Power Plant were designed to support reliable energy generation from the water resource and the long-term performance of the generation infrastructure.

Akhan II Hydroelectric Power Plant

The generation and facility components of the Akhan II Hydroelectric Power Plant were planned through a technical approach that maintains overall project integrity and supports the combined energy generation capacity of the two plants.

Turbine and Generator Systems

The turbine and generator systems that convert the hydraulic energy of water into electricity were integrated into the facility infrastructure with a focus on generation efficiency, equipment reliability and operational continuity.

Electrical and Automation Infrastructure

The electrical, control, protection and automation systems required to control, protect and safely transmit the generated electricity were evaluated together with the operational requirements of the power plants.

Operations and Technical Facility Management

Power plant structures, auxiliary systems, maintenance areas and technical access requirements were addressed within an integrated framework supporting the safe, orderly and sustainable operation of both facilities.

Integrated Approach

Coordinated engineering across two hydroelectric power plants

The success of the Akhan I and Akhan II Hydroelectric Power Plant projects depends on the accurate assessment of the water resource, technical compatibility between the two facilities and the reliable operation of their generation systems.

KTM Group addresses the projects as a unified technical system encompassing hydraulic structures, electromechanical equipment, electrical and automation systems, and operational and maintenance requirements. This approach strengthens coordination among the facility components while supporting the efficient and sustainable management of the total installed capacity of 45 MW.
