Doğuş Energy aims to develop and expand through profitable enterprises based on clean energy and its infrastructure, while acting in accordance with current social, economical and geographical developments and maintaining its environmentally friendly focus.

History

The Energy Department was founded within Doğuş Holding in 2005. The objective of the department is to monitor all development concerning and pertaining to the energy sector, both within Turkey and throughout the region; thereby formulating and generating strategies for all energy and energy-related infrastructure investments planned within the Doğuş Group. Taking necessary measures and creating profitable business enterprises are ultimate goals of this newly declared business line.

The Doğuş Group retains many competitive advantages within its structure. Since its establishment in 1951, the Group has accumulated considerable experience, especially in building dams and constructing various power stations and in mining activities.

The energy sector

To maintain the continuity of the economic, sociological, technological progress and expansion of our country, the energy sector must adapt and keep up with this rate of progress. The liberalization process taking place in the sector has underpinned growth, increasing the need for new investments. To that end, it is estimated that the sector will need as much as USD 130 billion in investment in total to meet an estimated 7% CAGR in demand until 2020.

Within this scope, Doğuş Energy has designated new investment projects and privatizations in the generation and distribution of electricity as well as the operation of these assets and energy trading as its core areas of business.

Ongoing investments

As a renewable and clean energy source, hydroelectric energy has started to assume greater importance in Turkey. The Doğuş Group also bases its future strategies on this premise. The Group obtained licenses to build and operate the Boyabat Hydroelectric Powerplant (513 MW), in which it holds a 34% stake, and the Aslancık Hydroelectric Powerplant (120 MW), in which it holds a 25% stake. In addition, the Group also acquired a 25% share in the D-TES Electric Power Trading Company.

Prospects

Doğuş Energy aims to develop and expand through profitable enterprises based on clean energy and its infrastructure, while acting in accordance with the current social, economical and geographic developments and maintaining its environmentally friendly perspective.

Outlook

Closely monitoring privatization initiatives in geographical areas across Turkey, the Doğuş Group plans to operate in energy generation based on renewable and conventional energy sources and in electricity distribution. The Energy Department is developing investment plans on prospective projects, and aims to build its total installed capacity up to 1,000-1,500 MW, mainly from renewable resources.
