Energy Ministry grants NIS 7 million for clean energy projects in south

The Energy Ministry announces NIS 7 million ($2 million) in grants to local authorities, factories and commercial buildings in the south of the country to encourage energy efficiency projects in street lighting, air conditioning and energy management.

The grants — up to NIS 1 million ($293,000) per project — will constitute up to 35 percent of project costs, or 40% in the socioeconomically weakest areas.

The grants form part of a NIS 50 ($14.7) million multi-year plan for the development of southern Israel.
