The four units were started in 1973, 1974, 1977 and 1989.[2]

The plant is owned by Çelikler Holding and in 2018 received 67 million lira capacity payments.[3] The area is a sulfur dioxide air pollution hotspot.[4] In January 2020 the plant was shutdown for failing to meet new pollution limits: however three out of four units were upgraded and restarted later in 2020.[5][6]
