ABOUT

Dorad Energy Ltd.

was incorporated in 2002 for the purpose of engaging in the generation of electricity and its supply to private end-user clients.

Independent Power Producer, Dorad Energy Ltd. was incorporated in 2002 for the purpose of engaging in the generation of electricity and its supply to private end-user clients.

Dorad is owned by the Eilat Ashkelon Pipeline Company (EAPC) – 37.5%, Zorlu Energy – 25%, U. Dori Energy – 18.75%, and Edelcom – 18.75%.

The company has constructed a combined-cycle power plant south of Ashkelon, fired by natural gas as the primary fuel source (with diesel oil as backup), with a production capacity of approximately 840 Megawatts, at a cost of US $1.1 billion.

The full electricity generation capacity of the power station has been sold to end-user clients at tariffs that are competitive with Israel Electric Corporation (IEC) tariffs.

Transmission of the electricity to the Company’s clients is carried out through the IEC grid according to the provisions of the Electricity Sector Law 5756-1996 and its associated regulations, and the standards and tariffs determined by the Electricity Authority.

Construction of the Power Plant

In November 2010, Dorad Energy achieved financial closing and in March 2011 started constructing the largest private power plant in Israel, and the first to sell primarily to end-users. 

The construction works ended with the commencement of commercial operation in May 2014 and the company was on its way as an IPP – an Independent Power Producer.

The main impetus for the new wave of private electricity companies in Israel was the discovery of large quantities of natural gas along the coast of Israel, which enabled IPPs to set up combined-cycle power stations, fueled primarily on natural gas

Combined-cycle technology has many advantages, including high efficiency and low construction, operation and maintenance costs, in comparison with coal-fired stations. 

The project contractor who is responsible for the design, construction and commissioning of the facility until delivery is Wood Group GTS, assisted for this purpose by a number of local Israeli contractors, including Koor Metals, Hagiva, Keren, ABB, El-Mor, GES and others.

EZOM, a company owned by Edeltech and Zorlu is operating and maintaining the station since the start of commercial operation. 

OUR STORY - FROM VISION TO REALITY

With the Israeli Government’s decision in 2001 to open up the electricity market, the seed was planted in the minds of a few entrepreneurs who dreamed of setting up the first private power station to break the monopoly barrier in the market and to open it up to private electricity producers.

It was at this stage that two entrepreneurs, who in time would become the owners of the company, met one another. They started developing ideas, gathering information, delving into the Electricity Sector Law and the regulations, seeking the best path to start transforming their vision into reality.

Slowly they gathered professionals around them, each an expert in their field from the areas of engineering, regulation, law and finance – all swept along together to the same idea, which had started to snowball and evolve into the vision of establishing the first and the largest private power station in Israel.

FROM THE CEO

In 2011 I joined the pioneering challenge of Dorad to open the electricity market to competition, and to make it more efficient and environmentally friendly.

Immediately after the financial closure, I took responsibility and leadership as CEO of Dorad together with a team of experienced, high-quality and dedicated managers and employees, in order to establish the largest private power plant in Israel and to supply electricity to private customers at a low, competitive price.

I am proud to lead Dorad which has committed to bring low-cost electricity to every city and home in Israel in a way that will allow the customer to significantly reduce electricity expenses and manage their electricity consumption in an intelligent manner.

Dorad supplies more than 7% of the total electricity produced in Israel with high efficiency, reliability and availability, all while helping to preserve the environment.

The Dorad team is proud to take a significant part in the revolution in the Israeli electricity market, which has been opened to competition and is becoming less expensive, more reliable and environmentally friendly for ourselves and for future generations.
