    ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT 1

    1.EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The proposed Project aims a capacity addition for the existing “Cengiz 240 MW Gas Fired Combined Cycle Power Plant” located in the Province of Samsun, Tekkeköy District, Selyeri Region which is owned by Cengiz Enerji Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.Ş.

    With an increase of 610 MW (610MWe - 628,3MWm - 1168,6MWt) the total capacity of the plant is expected to be 850 MW (850MWe – 875,5MWm - 1628,5MWt). After capacity addition, the power plant is expected to produce an annual electricity of approximately 6375 GWh, in which natural gas will be used as fuel like the existing/operating facility.

    The Project site is determined as “Energy Generation Plant Facility Area” in the 1/5000 scale Master Development Plan, which remains on the section of 46.000 m2 of an area of 132.862,94 m2 registered with plot number F36c05a and parcel number 3756 in the title deed.

    As the amount of capacity addition to be conducted on installed power at the plant falls in to the , Annex-I List 2.a. “Thermal Power Plants with a total thermal power of 300 MWt (Megawatt Thermal) and greater and other Combustion Systems” of the EIA Regulation which entered into force after being published in the Official Gazette No. 26939, dated 17.07.2008, an EIA report has been prepared and the “EIA Positive Certificate” on 17.08.2011 was issued for the project which means the EIA report has found satisfied by the relevant authorities. “EIA Positive Certificate” is given in Annex-1.

    Moreover, regarding the supply of water that will be needed in the subsequent process for cooling water, the “Deep Sea Discharge” Project was presented to the MoEF and the EIA Positive Certificated was issued under the dated 12.01.2010. Project approval of “Deep Sea Discharge” is given in Annex-2.

    In connection with the project, the construction of an additional land and sea pipeline (1750 m2 land line, 2500 m2 DDD underwater line) will be realized with the deep sea discharge system on the area registered with plot number F36c05a and parcel number 3715 in the title deed. Final report on sea water intake and discharge pipelines design project is given in Annex-3.

    The area on which the project will be established is owned by the ETİ Bakır A.Ş. Samsun Enterprise. A rental agreement has been conducted between the mentioned company and Cengiz Enerji Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.Ş in respect to the usage of the parcel no. 3756. The certificate of title and rental agreement are given in Annex-4.

    Natural gas will be used as the only fuel at the facility and natural gas storage will not be conducted. In the event that natural gas cannot be provided to the facility, any other raw material will not be used and the facility will not continue to its activity. The fuel to be used will be supplied from Samgaz Doğalgaz Dağıtım A.Ş, which is one of the companies in the Energy unit of Cengiz Holding and the total hourly natural gas consumption will be 170.000m3.

    The aim of the Project is to increase the energy production by increasing the capacity at the energy production facility having low cost and high efficiency. Natural gas to be used within the scope of the project is planned to be supplied from the natural gas pipeline of BOTAŞ (Petroleum Transportation with Pipelines Inc.) which is located to the east of the project site. SAMGAZ Doğal Gaz Dağıtım A.Ş will actualize natural gas intake from the BOTAŞ pipeline in order conduct the distribution of natural gas in the province of Samsun. The “Gas Fired

    ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT 2

    Combined Cycle Power Plant” which of the capacity is planned to be increased within the scope of the project, will take the natural gas required for energy generation from the pipelines of SAMGAZ Doğalgaz Dağıtım A.Ş.

    The facility at which a capacity addition is planned will be operated as combined cycle. The combined cycle system benefits from exhaust gases emerging from the gas turbine by means of a waste heat boiler and steam is produced. Than it is taken to steam turbines and electrical energy generation is continued. In this way, high efficiency electric power generation is performed at the facility.

    Cengiz 240 MW Gas Fired Combined Cycle Power Plant is designed in 2 blocks and electricity will be produced in both blocks with one new technology LMS Gas Turbine. With the use of the exhaust from these two gas turbines, there will be two HRSG Waste Heat Boilers (Heat Recovery Steam Generator) that will produce steam. Steam to be obtained from these boilers will be sent to one Steam Turbine unit. With the use of steam from this turbine electrical energy will be produced.

    With the capacity addition, another block will be added to the facility. Thus, the plant will consist of 3 blocks.

    The capacity addition of the Cengiz 240 MW Gas Fired Combined Cycle Power Plant and the construction period is planned to take approximately 19 months.

    Within the scope of the project the operation period of the plant is determined as 7.000 hours/year and the economic life of the project will be 30 years. The facility will operate for 11 months in a year at full load and in 3 shifts. During the construction phase of the project 100 to 300 people and during the operation phase of the project 30 people are planned to be employed.

    Within the scope of the project, all technical and social infrastructure needs of the personnel to be employed will be provided from the construction site on the facility area and a dining hall, kitchen, locker space, showers, toilets, sinks as well as administrative and technical offices will be available. The drinking water and potable water of the personnel will be supplied from the city network as it may also be provided from the market in case of extra need.

    Electrical energy obtained with the use of natural gas at the facility will be delivered to the national transmission line aiming to contribute to meeting the energy needs of Turkey. Electricity to be generated in the plant will be connected to the network at two points of a connection voltage of 380 kV. The connection of the facility at which a capacity addition will be conducted; will be delivered to the Cengiz 380 kV switchyard center to be newly built and from there to the Çarşamba – Altınkaya line by means of energy transmission lines to be newly established and to the San-Sal Natural Gas Combined Cycle Power Plant in the event that it is constructed.

It describes and priorities the actions needed to implement mitigation measures, corrective actions and monitoring methods to manage the impacts and risks, identified in this ESIA.

  • CENGİZ NATURAL GAS COMBINED CYCLE POWER PLANT CAPACITY ADDITION

    ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT 3

    The Equator Principles are a financial industry benchmark for determining, assessing and managing social & environmental risk in project financing. Key elements of Equator Principles (EP) compliance include:

    • The categorization of an EP project based on the magnitude of its potential impacts and risks in accordance with the environmental and social screening criteria of the International Finance Corporation (IFC)

    • The conduct of a Social and Environmental Assessment process to address the relevant

    social and environmental impacts and risks of the proposed project. The Assessment should propose mitigation and management measures relevant and appropriate to the nature and scale of the proposed Project.

    A Project that prepared in accordance with the EP should include;

    • A description of the project and its social and environmental aspects • Maps and drawings of the project and a delineation or description of its area of

    influence • Discussion of the Project’s compliance with the legal and regulatory framework, the

    applicable IFC Performance Standards and the environmental and health and safety performance levels established for the project

    • Key potential impacts and risks, including the identification of the affected communities • Planned mitigation and any areas of concern that need to be further addressed • The process of community engagement

    Both the Turkish and World Bank's policies and equator principles have been considered during the assessment. The ESIA study has been carried out according to requirements of the current EIA Regulation of Turkish Government and the Environmental Assessment Policies and Procedures of the World Bank OP 4.01, IFC Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Guidelines. Moreover, as required by the EHS Guidelines, the stringent levels and measures have been considered where the national regulations and the international guidelines differ. The environmental impacts for the proposed Project are a few in number since the Project is a capacity addition and will take place in industrial zone(Energy Generation Facility Zone). However, the potential environmental impacts were assessed and the necessary measures were determined. The potential impacts identified for Thermal Power Plants according to the EHS Guidelines1 are as follows;

    1 IFC EHS Guidelines for Thermal Power Plants

  • CENGİZ NATURAL GAS COMBINED CYCLE POWER PLANT CAPACITY ADDITION

    ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT 4

    • Air Emissions

    As also recommended by IFC EHS Guidelines for Thermal Power Plants, it is important to use the cleanest fuel economically available (Natural gas preferred to oil, which is preferred to coal)2. In the proposed Project, natural gas will be used as fuel whose gas emissions are quite lower compared to other thermal systems. During the construction phase of the project, there will be formation of dust emission due to exhaust gases and excavation works from construction machines to be used as there will be no any other emissions caused by construction works. Flue gas emissions at the facility in operation [carbon monoxide (CO), sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx)] will be in question. Modelling studies have been conducted for the proposed Project and it was seen that the emissions comply with both national and international limits. Besides, parameters those may affect air quality during the operational phase will be monitored and the monitoring system can be viewed on-line since continuous monitoring systems shall be installed.

    • Effluents and Water Consumption

    Within the scope of the project, considering that the entire water being used will return as wastewater, the total amount of domestic qualified wastewater from the personnel during the construction phase will be totally 30 m3 /day.

    Domestic qualified wastewater (accommodation, WC, shower, etc.) from the personnel to be employed during the construction phase of the project will be delivered to the biological wastewater treatment plant located in the adjacent power plant which also belongs to Cengiz Holding and will be discharged with the deep sea discharge system after suitably treated accordance with the discharge standards of “Wastewater Pollution Control Regulation”. Water used in the gas turbine cooling tower will be used after being subjected to a pre-filtration and the system will operate as closed-circuit. Water decreasing to evaporation will be eliminated with water supplement from the pre-filtration. At this stage, there will be no wastewater formation. Water to be used at this stage will be supplied from the sea and will be re-discharged to the sea without undergoing any chemical alterations. There will only be a change at temperature-related parameters of water as the limit values specified in the Water Pollution Control Regulation will not be exceeded.

    Domestic qualified wastewater emerging at the current plant is given to the biological treatment plant. Demin and condensation water being emerged are treated at the demineralization plant after being collected at tanks.

    Based on the provision of the DSİ General Directorate Circular No. 2005/23, dated 25.07.2006 stating that “as additional water amount would force the capacity and functions of spare and tertiary drainage channels with a task of discharge high groundwater, which are opened in parallel with the irrigation system, discharge of wastewater shall strictly not permitted even if 2 IFC EHS Guidelines for Thermal Power Plants

    treated and the cancellation of previously granted conditional permissions is required”, discharge to the Çoban Yatağı Drainage Channel will not be performed in any way during the operation phase of the project including the existing facilities of the investor company. For this reason, the investor company will add domestic and process based wastewater to the deep sea discharge system from where cooling water is supplied upon having treated at the regulation limit values. In this way, all liquid waste will have been discharged to the sea before underground and/or channel-discharge operations are performed.

    • Solid Waste

    For the amount of domestic qualified solid waste that will emerge during the construction phase of the project; the “Solid Waste Control Regulation” will be applied. With this regard, this waste will be separately collected and necessary measures will be taken in order to facilitate the disposal and evaluation of this waste, to prevent environmental pollution and to contribute to the economy.

    Solid waste will not be discharged to places which would adversely affect the environment and will be collected and stored in sealed standard garbage containers by complying “Solid Waste Control Regulation”. The solid waste will be continued to be collected by the Tekkeköy Municipality in a state without giving any harm to the environment in terms of odour, dust, leakage and similar factors.

    • Hazardous Material and Oil

    Flammable, explosive, hazardous and toxic substances will not be used since the operation will be carried out only with construction machines, picks, shovels etc. equipment. Waste oil and grease that may emerge from the maintenance and repair work of construction machines and in order to minimize the effect of fuels harmful for human health, a waste management in compliance with the provisions of the “Hazardous Waste Control Regulation” will be provided. In case of any leakage from equipment used in the facility, the “Regulation on Point-Based Contaminated Areas and Soil Pollution Control” shall be complied and in order to minimize any substances harmful to human health and the environment the provisions of the “Hazardous Waste Control Regulation” as well as the provisions of the “Waste Oil Control Regulation” shall be followed. Hazardous waste to emerge shall be stored in red colour tanks/containers having a phrase “Waste Oil” on it and shall be transferred to disposal facilities by licensed vehicles. Any empty packages of chemicals to be used during operation of the power plant, which contact chemicals, as well as used air filters upon their replacement, would pose as hazardous wastes. During the operation phase, any kind of hazardous waste will be sent to disposal companies licensed by Ministry of Environment and Urban Planning. Afterwards, the wastes will be disposed in compliance with Regulation on Hazardous Wastes.

    • Noise

    The results of prepared acoustic report have been evaluated according to “Regulation on Assessment and Management of Environmental Noise Pollution” and “IFC Environmental, Health and Safety General Guidelines”.

    In the construction phase, environmental noise value will reach to 46,0 dBA where the closest settlement area is 1050 m distance. The daytime limit value determined in regulation and the guideline is 70 dBA. Therefore, no negative impact is expected. It is anticipated that the vibrations will occur by machine and equipments however, it will not affect the buildings in settlement area considering the quite much distance.

    In the operation phase, the daytime noise level to be occurred at the nearest settlement is 30.2 dBA and it is below the limit values according to national regulation and also IFC EHS Guidelines.

    3.PROJECT DESCRIPTION 3.1.General Project Activity Cengiz Enerji Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. is planned to increase the capacity of “Cengiz 240 MW Gas Fired Combined Cycle Power Plant” to 850 MW (850MWe – 875,5MWm - 1628,5MWt) with an increase of 610 MW (610MWe - 628,3MWm - 1168,6MWt). After capacity addition, the power plant is expected to produce an annual electricity of approximately 6375 GWh, in which natural gas will be used as fuel.

    The Aim, Importance and Necessity of The Project

    The aim of the Project is to increase energy production by increasing the capacity at the energy production facility having low cost and high efficiency. Particularly in electricity generation, both in the world and in our country, there is a large increase in natural gas power plants. The most preferred source among fossil fuels is natural gas in terms of environment. These systems highly preferred today due to advantages such as low investment and operating costs, high efficiency, short instalment term, minimum environmental impact, high reliability and availability began also to be quickly established in our country since the 1980’s.

    Natural Gas Fuel Cycle Plants have been established by means of the law no. 3096 and relevant regulations, which entered into force in 1984 and allowed private sector institutions other than privileged companies to establish and operate electrical energy generating facilities in order to meet the electrical heat energy of their own facilities and group members.

    Natural gas is the most preferred fuel within fossil energy systems and is directly combusted in gas turbines which have shown rapid technological movements in recent years. However, as the efficiency obtained in gas turbines in simple cycle is maximum at a rate of %38, Combined Cycle Systems, at which higher thermal efficiency is obtained, have become the most applied energy technologies today to generate power from natural gas.

    An intense increase in the consumption of electrical energy has been experienced in Samsun and surrounding regions depending on years. As it can be seen in following tables and figures, electricity is consumed at an higher amount in the province of Samsun that the total amount of electricity consumed in the provinces of Kastamonu, Çankırı and Sinop. At the same time, when looked at the total consumed electricity amount in the provinces of Samsun, Tokat, Çorum and Amasya, only in the province of Samsun, we see that the amount of energy being consumed in Samsun forms approximately the half of the total amount consumed in the 4 provinces.

    Figure 1. Electricity Consumption in Samsun and Surrounding Regions by Years 1995-2005. As it can be seen from the graphic provided above, intense electricity production was not conducted in the region in proportion to the years of intense electricity consumption encountered in the province of Samsun. On the contrary, a decline has been experienced in the production of electricity in recent years.

    Considering that, a substantial portion of electrical energy produced in Turkey is lost in lines during the transportation routes at energy transmission lines, the need of the region in this sense for the production of electrical energy can be clearly seen.

    According to the IX. Development Plan which entered into force after being issued in the Official Gazette No. 26215, dated 01.07.2006, an increase at an average of 6,2 percent is expected in primary energy demand in proportion to economic and social development. It is foreseen that the share of 28% of natural gas in energy consumption in 2005 will increase to 34% and that the share of oil products will decrease from 37% to 31%. On the other hand, it is projected that electricity demand will show an increase of 8.1 percent per year in parallel with the developments primarily in industry production and in the service sector.

    Table 3. Energy Demands For 2006-2013

    Turkey’s developing and growing economic structure and its fast growing young and dynamic population raises the necessity to meet the growing energy demand at a rate of %7-8 within the next 15 years.

    In parallel with the increasing number of industrial facilities with the project, it is aimed to meet the energy needs of these facilities in the region and to provide cost-effective and quality energy to consumers in compliance with the energy market legislation and regulations and within the framework of the free energy market competitive conditions.

    With the realization of this planned project and other energy generation facilities, it is of great importance in terms of reliable economy and environmental impacts to solve the power shortage of Turkey in a clean way, which Turkey might face in the near future

    With the capacity addition in the said facility, if compared with other power generation facilities, an environmental-friendly, relatively low cost and reliable energy source will be ensured. Technology of the Project Natural gas is a mixture of light molecular weight hydrocarbons such as methane (CH4), ethane (C2H6) and propane (C3H8). They can be found alone or in conjunction with oil underground. Like oil, natural gas is also found in the pores of rocks and reaches production wells upon flowing through rocks. Natural gas is separated at surface and contained heavy hydrocarbons (butane, pentane, etc.) are removed. Natural gas is the cleanest fossil fuel that we use in our homes. In the event of combustion of natural gas carbon dioxide, water vapour and nitrogen oxides are emerging. Oil and natural gas are consisting of the same type hydrocarbon molecules as the names are given to fluids in liquid and gas phases respectively. Natural gas may be found alone in underground as it also might be found in oil reservoirs as gas hood and / or as dissolved in oil. While natural gas consists mostly of C1-C5 hydrocarbons, oil contains C1-C60 + (C60 and heavier) hydrocarbons. Dissolved gas in oil is the most important energy source that provides oil to flow into the well. The structure of a production block in a Natural Gas Combined Cycle Power Plant and its operation mechanism is briefly as following: Each combined cycle production block contains a Gas Turbine-Engine + Gas Turbine-Motor Generator + Waste Heat Boiler + Condenser Unit + Steam Turbine + Steam Turbine Generator. In addition to these, Dry Type Cooling Towers or Water Cooled Wet Type Cooling Towers +

    Water Treatment Facility + Switchgear Facility + Control and Control Systems are also included within the scope of the project3. Production blocks of Natural Gas Combined Cycle Power Plants operate independently of each other. Electricity generation is carried out in two different stages. Natural gas mixed with air is burned in gas turbines and turns a generator which is on the same shaft of the turbine and electricity is produced at the first stage. At the same time, hot gases emerging from this combustion are sent to the waste heat boiler to produce steam from this heat. The steam having reached the necessary pressure and temperature is sent to the steam turbine and turns the turbine. By means of the generator being on the same shaft of the turbine, second stage electricity is produced. The steam from the steam turbine is condensed in condensers by means of cooling water and is converted into the water. The condensed water accumulating in the lower section of the condenser is sent to boilers for re-boiling. The steam produced in boilers, is sent to the steam turbine and the cycle is completed. To keep the maximum level of efficiency, boiler steam pressure is produced in three different levels (high, medium, low). In this way, the hot gas in boilers will be utilized as much as possible. The work flow scheme of the proposed Project is given below.

    A vast majority of the heat energy provided from fuel in order to ensure the continuity of the cycle in thermal plants is emitted from the condenser and the fuel. As it is technically not possible to produce electricity from this energy which has to be emitted to the atmosphere, this heat energy is called as waste heat. The use of flue waste heat which is one of the two waste heat sources at thermal power plants decrease the temperature of flue gas. However, this temperature has a lower limit depending on the content of the fuel since in the event that flue gas temperature falls below a certain value, the acidic gas would pass to liquid phase and the flue would be damaged. As a result of this, although having a higher temperature, waste heat energy from the flue forms only a small portion of the total usable waste heat potential at the plant. For this reason, the priority of waste heat evaluation at thermal power plants is the heat energy emitted from the condenser which has a higher potential. As the heat temperature of waste heat at the condenser is at a level of 35-40°C, its quality is low and it requires additional investment in housing and greenhouses using conventional heating systems (low temperature heating system investment). For this reason, as investment will increase although the cost of this waste heat is lower, it use in current housing and greenhouses is usually not economical. In waste heat evaluation applications at power plants, indirect methods like the use of intermediate steam is used instead of the use of waste heat emitted to the environment directly from the condenser. The use of these indirect methods are also investigated in the TSAD Project.

    The Investigation of Methods of the Conversion, Development of Thermal Power Plant Waste Heat to Benefits and Heating Application of Buildings which of the objective is to enhance Energy Efficiency in energy production by evaluating plant waste heat potential in the most effective way – Within the scope of the TSAD project, there are thermal power plants in our country which operate under EÜAŞ and Subsidiaries (YEAŞ, KEAŞ, SEAŞ ve HEAŞ)4. Useful heat energy to be obtained at thermal power plants can be used in various fields which are;

    • District Heating Systems • District Cooling Systems • Heating Purposes in Greenhouses

    The planned power plant’s efficiency is 60%. The waste heat from gas engines will be taken to waste heat boilers and will be used in the steam-obtaining from water process. The steam obtained through waste heat boilers will be evaluated in the steam turbine and subsequently in the generation of electricity. The temperature of the gas released from the flue is around 100 °C and remains well below the emission limit values. Although that the investor company dos not have a waste heat evaluation project in current situation, the investor company will examine the above given waste heat assessment methods during the operation phase and will those have projected if found appropriate. Demineralised water steam is obtained at waste heat boilers by evaluating the exhaust gas from gas turbines. There is steam at 3 different pressure stages at the boiler. These 3 separate steam

    is sent to the steam turbine after being superheated steam from particular section of the waste heat boiler. As the thermal power plant is a combined cycle system, steam which is operated in the turbine is resend to the boiler after being condensed and thus the system operates in a closed loop manner. Dwindling water is approximately 46 tons/hour which is supplied from the demineralization plant. The exhaust gas system is emitted from the flue at about 100 degree after being used at the waste heat boiler. Steam Turbine It is 220 MW. 3 separate steam obtained from the waste heat boiler is sent to the superheated steam turbine and converts thermal energy into mechanical energy. Mechanical energy rotates the turbine shaft and the generator located on the same shaft performs electricity production. Used steam is sent to the condenser and from here to the waste heat boiler feed water tank by means of condensate pumps. Sub-units at the Steam Turbine system are as following:

    Lubrication Oil System Hydraulic Control System Main Steam Lines and Instrumentation Steam Bypass Stations Vacuum System Turbine Condensate System Turbine Control System

    Generator The Gas Turbine and Steam Turbine which are located on the same shaft with a single shaft design transfer mechanical energy to the generator on the same shaft. The generator capacity is approximately 610 MW. The following are located on the generator;

    Natural Gas Pressure Reducing and Gas Pre-Heatment and Filtration System Gas pressure on the pressure values that are required for gas turbine system because it is not considered by the gas pressure line must be regulated. A pressure of about 41 bar is required in front of the gas turbine. The capacity of the natural gas system is around 65 tons/hour. At the same time, the gas heating process is both increase in efficiency and condensation at low temperatures which is required as it constitutes a risk for the machine. Gas filtration is necessary to prevent ingress of undesirable gases. Particles above 2 µm are hold during the filtration system.
