Demre Solar Power Plant (SPP) Installation

Demre is one of Turkey's leading districts for greenhouse vegetable farming, especially tomatoes; covered tomato production is described as the district's single most important source of income. Around 3,250 families farm across 18,000 decares of greenhouses, playing a real role in supplying Turkish and European markets with tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and eggplants even in winter.

Demre also draws year-round visitors to the ancient city of Myra and the church believed to hold the tomb of Saint Nicholas, the Bishop of Myra who inspired the Santa Claus figure — blending cultural tourism with agriculture into one intertwined local economy.

In 2025, Demre earned the "Cittaslow" (slow city) title as the 28th member of the Cittaslow Turkey National Network, scoring 75.40 points — recognition of its successful work preserving historic, cultural, and natural values while pursuing sustainable development.

The continuous power needed for lighting, irrigation pumps, and seasonal heating makes electricity a major cost item for the district's roughly 3,250 greenhouse-farming families — a scale that makes Demre a large potential market for agricultural solar investment.

Tourism businesses are likewise turning to solar to cut energy costs; for small hotels and guesthouses serving cultural tourism, solar represents a meaningful saving as well.

Our agricultural solar projects for greenhouse operations are designed to cover fixed loads such as irrigation pumps and lighting, with flexible capacity options suited to businesses of different sizes across the district's 18,000 decares of greenhouses.

For small hotels, guesthouses, and commercial businesses, our residential and commercial solar options provide a turnkey solution.

With most of the 3,250 farming families operating at a similar scale, we can run a standardized yet site-specific design process tailored to each farm's own roof or land layout.
