Aliaga Habas power station (Turkish: Habaş/ Aliağa-DGKÇ Santrali) is a gas-fired power station in İzmir Province in western Turkey.[1][2][3] Like the nearby İzmir gas power plant it is one of the few gigawatt scale power stations in Turkey.[4] However İzmir has a lot of potential for more solar, wind and geothermal energy.[5] Because hydropower is almost all much further east gas is the main source of flexible power in western Turkey and, as of 2022, gas is expensive:[6] geothermal could be made more flexible to balance an increase in solar and wind.[7]
