An episode from the series MADE IN ISRAEL

The story of the establishment of the Israeli energy industry. The way in which the local industry dealt with having to supply the residents with energy, albeit poor natural resources; the effects it has had on Israel’s other industries and the changes it has undergone throughout the years, with new forces, such as the growing awareness to environmental issues on the rise; the attempt to find alternative energy resources, such as solar energy or wind and the effect that discovering natural gas resources had on the industry. The episode also provides a critical look at the profits distribution from these new energy resources between the state and its tycoons.
