With its extensive experience in delivering environmental services, our expert team has been appointed to establish a comprehensive action plan to deliver a range of ecological surveys to ensure environmental impact is minimised. These include water and soil quality studies, noise measurements and biodiversity assessments. It will also conduct stakeholder engagement activities to improve understanding of the local populace’s expectations regarding the project, including meetings with village leaders and surveys of local households. The project will lead to Turkey’s first co-located renewable energy site, as the solar plant is being developed next to an operational 128MW wind farm. With the country targeting net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2053, low-carbon energy generation technologies will make a vital contribution. Assystem is also supporting Turkey to build its first ever nuclear power plant in Akkuyu, where our experts will be independently inspecting all the structures, systems and components related to safety.
