These facilities generated 171 million kWh of electricity in 2020, meeting the electricity requirement of c.65 thousand households; they are subject to the Renewable Energy Resources Support Mechanism (YEKDEM), selling electricity at USD 0.133 per kWh till 2027 at Aydın-Söke and Şanlıurfa-Haliliye plants and 2028 at Mardin-Derik plant. Consus is one of the very few companies to combine both biomass collection and power plant operation under a single roof.

Ra Solar is subject to Renewable Energy Resources Support Mechanism starting from 2020, selling electricity at USD 0.133 per kWh for ten years.

Consus Enerji's strategy is to develop green energy projects with attractive long-term feed-in tariffs and innovative energy efficiency solutions. In the coming years, the Group plans to establish a diversified and balanced power generation portfolio, both in terms of resources and geography. Consus is also looking at developing and/or acquiring additional renewable energy projects in a variety of regions outside Turkey. The Group is also planning to start solar farm investments of c.8.0 MWp during 2021 in its biomass plant areas in parallel with the new hybrid generation regulation to improve generation performance as well as plant efficiencies. Consus Enerji aims to boost its current installed capacity with additional renewable energy and energy efficiency investments in the upcoming years.
