(Jerusalem Post) Eytan Halon - The largest renewable energy project in Israel - a vast $1.13 billion thermo-solar power plant near Ashalim in the Negev - was inaugurated on Thursday. The 121-megawatt solar power facility will supply electricity to 70,000 households in Israel. The facility sits alongside two photovoltaic solar energy plants. Energy Minister Yuval Steinitz said, "In the near future, we will terminate the use of coal and other polluting fuels in Israel altogether, and close the coal turbines in Hadera and later on in Ashkelon. It will be only natural gas and renewables, mainly solar systems." "When our parents arrived in Israel there was no milk and honey, there was just desert and swampland," said Naty Saidoff, controlling stakeholder of Shikun & Binui, one of the new plant's owners. "We dried the swamps, and now we took something that was arid and dry and turned it into a resource. Israel turned the saltwater into water, and the curse of the sun into a blessing."2019-08-30 00:00:00Full Article
