Project Brief

Çarşamba Landfill Gas to Electricity Project, developed by the ITC-KA Enerji Üretim Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş.” is located at the Çarşamba landfill site in Samsun Province of Türkiye. The project activity is up and generating electricity to the national grid, with 1 gas engine with an installed capacity of 1.415 MWe. The electricity is generated by LFG extraction and utilization.

It is estimated that the landfill received around 506,225 tons of municipal solid waste (MSW) till the operationalization of the project activity in 2016. Approximately 72% of this waste consists of organic materials like pulp, paper & cardboard, food waste, garden waste and other organic waste. The objective of the project activity is to reduce/limit the environmental impacts from the existing and future land filled waste. The project activity includes implementation of a Land Fill Gas (LFG) extraction and utilization system for the purpose of power generation. Successful implementation of this project activity is considered viable with the revenue from carbon financing.

 

Additional Information

The project activity is operational with one gas engine with a total installed capacity of 1.415 MWe. The activity is expected to generate approximately 7,924 MWh/year.

The Project activity is expected to result in annual average emission reductions of 16,209 tCO2e and cumulative emission reduction of 162,092 tCO2e over the crediting period.
