To prove that between the electricity sector in Israel and the global uncertainty of the energy market, renewable energy entrepreneurship could contribute socially, environmentally, and economically.
Israel has not yet realized the vast untapped potential of renewable energy (RE) community entrepreneurship. Over 95% of the energy used in the country depends on imported fossil fuels. Incentives for RE installations are very few. Communities who want to implement RE technologies encounter many barriers. There is an urgent need to prove that it is possible and practical to implement RE technologies on the community level.
AIES will install a medium-size wind turbine and PV installations. It will study, document and monitor all stages of development and develop proposed solutions for mainstreaming these types of projects while monitoring the benefits of the installatio
Show that communities can successfully develop and install RE technologies, and help to build momentum, motivation and the required experience for other communities to follow. Contribute to the long term goal of energy independence for Israel.
This project has provided additional documentation in a Microsoft Word file (projdoc.doc).
