<\/div>Over the course of a decade, ENKA has undertaken and successfully completed the construction of electricity generation facilities with a total capacity of 4.5 GW. If we consider the fact that Iraq\u2019s total electricity generation capacity was 18 GW, and that a significant proportion of this capacity came from hydro-power plants that do not operate in times of drought, and from power plants that use Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO) which is very harmful for the environment, it can be better understood how vital the power plants completed by ENKA are for Iraq. In addition, the power plants built by ENKA can be considered groundbreaking for Iraq, as emissions are kept at a minimum at these facilities where fuel is used in the most efficient way.<\/p>\n

The ENKA\u2019s projects completed in Erbil and Sulaymaniyah can be good examples in the sense that the simple cycle power plants which had been under operation by the local government were converted into the combined cycle power plants in 2015 and 2016 respectively.<\/p>\n

ENKA built combined cycle power plants to produce more than 50% more electricity from the same fuel than a traditional simple-cycle plant. This means value of emission per electricity generated is less than 50% compared to an equivalent traditional simple cycle power plant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
