Kilikya power station is a proposed 1,320-megawatt (MW) coal-fired power plant in Adana province, Turkey.

Location
The map below shows the location of the plant's site, near Sugözü, Yumurtalık district, Adana province. The plant would be located immediately between İSKEN's Sugözü existing coal plant and the proposed Ayas Enerji Santrali power station.
Background on Plant
In January 2011, Atagür Enerji, a subsidiary of the Besa Group (formerly known as Bezci Construction, after executive Salih Bezci), applied to build a four-unit, 1,320-MW, $3 billion coal-fired power plant in the Yumurtalık district of Adana province.[1][2]
Phase 1
In August 2013 the Besa Group started moving ahead on the project, announcing that it would build two 330-MW units initially, and an additional two units at a later date. Besa plans to bring the plants online within four years after beginning construction.[3][4] The construction contractor would be Rönesans Holding.[5]
As of early 2015, construction is scheduled to begin in 2016, and the plant would be completed in 2020. The environmental permitting process began January 2015, with the plant now named "Klikya." The project's cost is listed at 2 billion lira, or $770 million.[6][7] The project's proponents held an environmental hearing in February 2015. Protesters from Adana Environmental Platform spoke against the proposal at the hearing.[5]
According to the Turkey Energy Market Regulatory Authority website (December 2017), the power station's license was rejected, and it has not received an approved EIA. The project appears to be shelved.[8]
As of December 2019 there has been no progress in more than four years and the project appears to be cancelled.
Phase 2
Plans and dates for Phase 2 are not available. With no progress since the 2011 announcement, plans for phase II appear to be deferred or abandoned.
