Two major energy projects in Israel are: (1) the construction of a 600-900MW gas-fired combined cycle Sorek power plant that is currently in the review process of the pre-qualification stage, and (2) the privatization of Israel’s largest power station, a 1693MW gas-fired Eshkol power plant.
The Palestinian Energy Authority issued a renewable energy strategy in 2012 that aims to gradually achieve 10 percent of electricity production from renewable sources by the end of 2020. According to the strategy, this goal can be achieved if certain prerequisites are attained.
The Palestinian territory has a high potential for solar power generation, as it receives around 3,000 hours of sunshine per year. As a result, the Palestinian Authority is looking to attract investments in the renewable energy sector. Inauguration of the solar power plant in a school in Beit Hanina, Jerusalem.
