Seyitömer power station is a 600-megawatt coal-fired power station in Turkey near Seyitömer, Kütahya Province, built in the late 20th century, which burns lignite mined locally. [1]

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] According to İklim Değişikliği Politika ve Araştırma Derneği (Climate Change Policy and Research Association) in 2021 the plant discharged waste without a licence and without penalty. [7]: 79  It is estimated that closing the plant by 2030, instead of when its licence ends in 2062, would prevent over 4000 premature deaths. [8]
