The TRNC Kalecik Combined Cycle Fuel Oil Power Plant started production in 2003. With the units that were gradually put into operation to meet the increasing energy demand without interruption, the installed capacity of the plant reached 188 MW as of 2024. The power plant, which meets approximately 50% of the TRNC's energy needs, has 8 Wärtsilä 18V46 diesel engines with 17.8 MW each, 8 Aalborg boilers and 1 Dresser-Rand turbine with 13.5 MW. The combined cycle conversion was completed in 2011 and the plant also has a DeSOx flue gas cleaning system.

The five-year contract signed with the Turkish Electricity Authority of Cyprus (KIBTEK) in 2003 was extended to 2027 as 15+3 years in 2009. The power plant continues its sales with a purchase guarantee at a sales tariff determined in US dollars since 2003. The plant is the most efficient electricity generation plant in the TRNC.
