The Greenway CSP Mersin Solar Plant is a 60-metre (200 ft) high operational concentrated solar power tower in southern Turkey. Natural circulation direct steam generation boiler is used with operating temperature of 550 °C and pressure of 55 bars. Receiver has four evaporators and a super-heater. Receiver angle is 135°.[1]

After an extensive research and development period, the Greenway CSP Mersin Solar Plant began its operation in March 2013. The power plant consists of 510 heliostats and has a capacity of 5 MWth.[2] Complete heliostat field is Greenway’s own proprietary design, with many innovative features like wireless heliostat field communication, precise solar position calculation, automated heliostat tracking correction, accurate reflection angle calculation, and positioning of heliostats autonomously in dual axis for optimum exposure to solar rays.[2] In addition, Greenway heliostat design allows high reflecting efficiency and reduced manufacturing and assembly costs.

The solar tower plant is situated south of Adana-Erdemli Motorway in Toroslar district of Mersin Province. It is the first facility of its art in Turkey. The investment cost of the plant was US$50 million.[2]
