In an official ceremony, the Ramat Hovav power station was handed over.

Ramat Hovav Power Limited Partnership transferred a total of NIS 4,256,500,018 to the IEC.

The sale of the station will contribute to a decrease in the tariff in 2021 by 5.5%.

Ramat Hovav is the second power station that the IEC sells as part of the electricity economy reform decided on in July 2018. The Alon Tavor power station was the first station sold to the private sector about a year ago to the MRC Alon Tavor Power Ltd group.

Energy Minister Dr. Yuval Steinitz said that the sale of the power plant for NIS 4.25 billion is another huge step towards advancing the reform of the electricity sector and the IEC, and that it is a great expression of confidence in the electricity sector when such a huge power plant is sold during the Corona period.

This is a huge victory for the reform he led and passed in the government and the Knesset about two years ago.

He further noted that the electricity company is gradually leaving the field of electricity generation.

As a result of the sale, a further reduction in electricity prices will be possible.
