Records by technology

Counts records, not generation share · coverage & dates

Reported capacity is the rated size of the listed installations, not electricity being produced now. Source dates and coverage differ, so newer facilities may be absent and historical records may remain.

How electricity works in Palestine

Single buyerOne state buyer, private generators

Most electricity is bought from the Israel Electric Corporation, with local solar.

Who regulates

  • PERCEnergy regulator

Who controls the grid

PETL buys power; local distribution companies serve customers.

Markets & power exchanges

No open power exchange: producers sell to the single buyer under long-term contracts.

Regional grid

Not part of a larger synchronous grid or regional power pool.

What does “Single buyer” mean?

Independent power producers build plants and sell their output under long-term contracts to one designated state buyer, usually the national utility, which runs the grid and sells to consumers.

PETL is the national transmission-company reference. This does not imply one fully interconnected system or describe every local provider, including arrangements in Gaza.
