Mott MacDonald will review and verify the power plant鈥檚 design, carry out factory inspections and monitor construction on site.
Cetin Atmaca, Mott MacDonald鈥檚 power manager for Turkey, said: 鈥淭his new project at Kirikkale will feature substantial involvement from our office in Istanbul, which is also working on a number of other power projects in the country.鈥澛�
