The cabinet approved three gas-fired power plants and two large-scale solar energy projects in peripheral regions of Israel. These major infrastructure projects will move into the fast-track planning process overseen by the National Infrastructure Committee. The power plants will be built near Jatt, within the Menashe Regional Council, and at the Palmachim Industrial Park.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The approval is intended to keep pace with a massive surge in electricity consumption projected for Israel, driven by the AI revolution, data centers, population growth, and the adoption of electric vehicles. If approved, the power plants are expected to connect to the power grid by the early 2030s.
