The Israel Lands Authority and the Ministry of National Infrastructures are going ahead with land tenders in outlying areas for the construction of solar energy installations. The tenders are for ten sites of 100-200 dunams (25-50 acres) each.
The Ministry of National Infrastructures hopes that the currently unused sites in industrial zones will be exploited by ventures for setting up mid-size photovoltaic installations to be connected to the national power grid, turning them into sources of green energy.
