Southern Israel to Rely on Solar Energy
(Media Line-Jerusalem Post) Tara Kavaler - The Arava region of southern Israel, which includes the city of Eilat, will become 100% reliant on solar energy during the daytime by 2020. "Solar is around one-third the price of natural gas," said Yosef Abramowitz, CEO of Energiya Global and a pioneer of the solar-energy industry in Israel. He added that "the cost of storage necessary to keep consistent power when the weather is uncooperative and for use at night" is also on the decline.
