Ashalim Plot-A Solar Thermal Power Plant has passed performance tests satisfactorily, a project where MMYPEM took part as a responsible for the commissioning.

This thermal power plant contributes 1% to the country’s electricity needs. It consists of four projects: two photovoltaic producing 70 megawatts and two solar thermals each one generating 110 megawatts.

The plant covers an area of almost 400 hectares and forecasts for the coming years point out that it will keep running until 2043, when it will be handed over to the State of Israel.
