(Israel) Mise en service de la centrale à concentration sur tube de Ashalim dans le Negev.
Puissance de 121 MW.
Israel marks start of work at thermal solar ‘sea of mirrors’ plant in Negev
The 121MW Negev Energy gleaming plant produces heat from the desert sun to create electricity; pity the price is as much as six times that of photovoltaic technology

Israel officially marked the starting of operations of the nation’s largest renewable energy project — a 121MW thermal solar gleaming power plant in the Negev desert, seen as a key part of the country’s national target of generating 10 percent of its power from renewable energy sources by 2020.
The inauguration of the Negev Energy plant at Ashalim was held in the presence of Israel’s Energy Minister Yuval Steinitz and US-Israeli businessman Naty Saidoff, who last year took control of Shikun & Binui, a construction firm that is one of the main players behind the mega project.
The plant started production in April and is operating at 95% of its full capacity. It will supply 0.75% of the nation’s electricity, to some 70,000 households. The plant will also help reduce some 245,000 tons of CO2 emissions per year, the equivalent of taking 50,000 vehicles off the road, the website of the project says.
Israel will likely reach the 10% target set for 2020, he said, and has already set a new target of 17% of electricity generated by renewable energy by 2030, while also mulling increasing that target even further.
In the past, Steinitz said, the main purpose in Israel was to attain energy security. Now public health has also become a priority and Israel is set on shutting down all of its coal plants and relying just on clean energy sources, such as natural gas and renewable energy. Ninety-five percent of the renewable energy in Israel comes from solar power, he said.
“We are in the middle of a huge historic process,” Steinitz added. If once 65% of electricity was produced by coal, today coal accounts for less than 30% of the electricity supply, with the rest replaced by natural gas and solar energy.

..... Spanning approximately 390 hectares, larger than the central city of Givatayim, the 121-megawatt concentrating solar power facility will supply electricity to approximately 70,000 households in Israel, or approximately 0.75% of all electricity generated in Israel.
The $1.13 billion CSP plant – a public-private partnership (PPP) – was constructed by Negev Energy, a special purpose company held by Shikun & Binui Renewable Energy, Israeli investment fund Noy Fund and Spanish engineering group TSK. The Noy Fund and TSK joined the project in April 2016 after Spanish company Abengoa, a former project partner, went bankrupt......
C'est hors de prix !
