About Our Company
Kucuk Menderes Enerji A.S.
Our corporate as well as family philosophy is the world is not big as you think. Preserve world values and help them to be passed to next generations.
In this meaning, we do know that renewable energy is a must for our future and we are designing our company in this vision.
The main activity of Kucuk Menderes Enerji A.S. is production of Geothermal Electric Energy. In addition to our geothermal unit, we are designing solar energy and wind energy units as support system.
Kucuk Menderes Enerji A.S. holds Innovative team members in its body and in response to that it leads itself for better vision and company future.
With our capabilities across the energy spectrum and renewable energy, for better future, we have taken a start on our Geothermal Electric Energy production plan by 2021 January.

Investment
Green energy is a hot topic in a world concerned about climate change. Power generation that doesn’t rely on the burning of fossil fuels to generate electricity for our homes or industries is creating a growing number of investment opportunities. Water, wind and solar are among the top sources of renewable energy.

BENEFITS OF USING GEOTHERMAL ENERGY
- First, it’s clean. Energy can be extracted without burning a fossil fuel such as coal, gas, or oil. Geothermal fields produce only about one-sixth of the carbon dioxide that a relatively clean natural-gas-fueled power plant produces, and very little if any, of the nitrous oxide or sulfur-bearing gases. Binary plants, which are closed cycle operations, release essentially no emissions.
- Geothermal energy is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Geothermal power plants have average availabilities of 90% or higher, compared to about 75% for coal plants.
- Geothermal power is homegrown, reducing our dependence on foreign oil.
Is Geothermal Energy harmful?
Geothermal energy has the smallest land footprint of any comparable energy source in the world. Direct use applications and geothermal heat pumps have almost no negative effects on the environment. In fact, they can have a positive effect by reducing the use of energy sources that may have negative effects on the environment.
Does generating electrical power from geothermal sources causes pollution?
Electrical power does not, by its nature, create pollution. Modern closed-loop geothermal power plants used to generate electrical power do not emit greenhouse gases. Additionally, they consume less water on average than most conventional power generation technologies.
Can we run out of geothermal energy?
It is a renewable energy and will never deplete. Abundant geothermal energy will be available for as long as the Earth exists. Worldwide energy consumption is currently around 15 terawatts, which is far from the total potential energy available from geothermal sources. Can be produced consistently, running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, regardless of weather conditions.
