A new large energy storage facility will be constructed next to the new power plant, to supply electricity to the national transmission grid, in order to support Israel's renewable energy goals for 2030.
This system is managed by Noga – an independent government company that manages the planning and development of the electricity system in Israel according to the local market needs. In 2015, Dalia Power Energies received a production license to operate the station, as well as a license to sell electricity to its customers.
The Eshkol power plant was purchased for a total of NIS 9 billion, and it is the largest plant in Israel powered by natural gas. The station operates two combine cycle turbines with a production capacity of 1606 megawatts. In addition, four old steam generating units are installed at the station, and are intended for scrapping within a few years.
In 2024, the first energy storage facility began operating on the Dalia Power Plant site. Based on lithium-ion technology developed by Sungrow, this state-of-the-art facility is unique of its kind with two floors and a storage capacity of 88 megawatts per hour.
