Project Description:

The Private Sector Early Stage Geothermal Development Framework (“PLUTO” or the “Programme”), approved by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (“EBRD” or the “Bank”) Board of Directors on 9 December 2015, is a framework of USD 125 million will enable geothermal energy developers to explore and begin production of geothermal wells in Turkey with the objective of filling the funding gap currently existing for those sub projects at exploratory stages of geothermal development.

The overall objective of the assignment is to provide analytical support to the Government of Turkey in developing a holistic strategic plan allowing the use of geothermal resources in a sustainable manner. Sustainable management basically involves setting up and maintaining a specific long-term production scheme.
