Tosyalı Holding has partnered with GE Vernova and Inogen to launch a groundbreaking Solar Power Plant (SPP) project. Designed for self-consumption, the project aims to achieve a total capacity of 1.2 GW. The first phase, with a capacity of 120 MWp, will feature Tosyalı’s locally produced N-Type Topcon 725 Wp solar panels, manufactured under the Tosyalı V-Solar brand.
A Sustainability Pioneer in Green Steel
Tosyalı, a global leader in green steel production with an annual crude steel capacity of 15 million tonnes, continues to demonstrate its commitment to sustainable practices. The company integrates artificial intelligence, advanced technology, and renewable energy sources to align with its principle of eco-efficiency.
Previously, Tosyalı made history by achieving 235 MW of installed rooftop solar capacity across its facilities, the largest of its kind globally. Building on this success, the company has signed an agreement with GE Vernova and Inogen to develop the 1.2 GW self-consumption SPP project. The initial 120 MWp phase is expected to be operational by 2025, with full project completion planned for 2027.
At the World Economic Forum in Davos, Chairman Fuat Tosyalı highlighted the project’s importance: “With this investment, Tosyalı will generate approximately 50% of its self-consumption from solar energy.”
Innovating for a Sustainable Future
Fuat Tosyalı elaborated on the company’s strategic vision during his Davos 2025 speech: “We continue to invest in advanced clean energy technologies under our vision of ‘Tosyalı for a sustainable life.’ As part of this vision, we have taken the first step toward one of the world’s largest self-consumption SPP projects with a capacity of 1,2 GW by initiating the first project in Osmaniye. We are happy to collaborate with GE Vernova, one of the world’s leading companies in this field, and Inogen, Turkey’s leading EPC contractor. We will produce our solar panels in Osmaniye. Starting with the first project, these panels will be deployed across SPP sites in eight provinces. By doing so, we aim to meet approximately 50% of our energy needs from solar energy. This will make us stronger and more independent in energy usage and further strengthen our position among the world’s leading green steel producers.”
The project, one of the largest self-consumption solar initiatives globally, is set to be implemented in three phases. Construction for the first 120 MW phase has already started in Osmaniye.
Collaboration for Transformative Change
Ali Murat Soydan, Chairman of Inogen Group, reflected on the project’s impact: “We are happy to be involved in this pioneering project of Tosyalı, a symbol of green transformation in the world and our country. When all the Tosyalı projects are completed, we will strengthen our position as the green transformation leader in our country working with GE Vernova. In these projects, which will be carried out in 10 different provinces with more than 2000 employees, we plan to go through an efficient and fast installation process and commission all the power plants as soon as possible, with the support of our global partners.”
Ed Torres, Power Conversion & Storage Business Leader for GE Vernova, highlighted the importance of this initiative: “Along with Inogen, we are proud to support Tosyalı’s ambitious goal of developing one of the world’s largest self-consumption solar power projects. By supplying our advanced solar technology, providing design and engineering services, and facilitating ECA financing, we aim to help Tosyalı achieve greater energy independence and accelerate the transition toward a more resilient energy future.”
