Construction mogul IC İçtaş has won the rights to operate the Yeniköy and Kemerköy thermal power plants in the Aegean province of Muğla for $2.671 billion, amid protests by the plants’ workers who oppose the privatization.
IC İçtaş, also the contractor of the third bridge over Istanbul’s Bosphorus and owned by Çeçen Holding, emerged victorious from a fierce auction against the joint venture of Kalyon and Çelikler, placing the highest bid for the two plants, which have a total installed capacity of 1,050 megawatts.
