Doğan Holding generates approximately 1.9 TWh of electricity annually by fully utilizing our domestic and national resources through its hydro, wind and solar power plants, which are renewable, green and clean energy sources, and makes a significant contribution to the Turkish economy in reducing our country's current account deficit in the field of energy.
While all Doğan Holding's power plants are investments that assure maximum value to the environment and social impact, the Group gives utmost priority in investing new energy projects that will take these values as a basis and contribute to carbon emission reduction. All power plants in Doğan Holding's portfolio are Gold Standard (GS4GG) and VCS-VERRA certified. Considering the locations of the WPPs, many projects in the fields of forestry and biodiversity are continously developed and cooperation with local institutions and NGOs are made.
In the regions where generation activities are carried out, activities in the fields of education and social approval are also carried out. In Bursa, Mut, Bandırma, Çorum and Erzurum regions where our power plants are located, we provide scholarship support to university students and contribute to their education. In addition, steps are being taken to meet many important needs of primary schools in the region.
