Israel has no coal reserves, and is dependent on imports of coal and petroleum for most of its energy needs.
Natural Gas
Israel’s natural gas reserves cover 46 billion cubic meters. Isramco Inc., and Middle East Energy look for offshore natural gas reserves, as well as process natural gas that is found in the country. 89 kilometers of pipeline for natural gas is found across the country
Petroleum
Israel does not have many petroleum reserves. Most of the demand for petroleum is met through imports. Oil Refineries Ltd. operates in Haifa and Ashdod, where they refine petroleum. There are 290 kilometers of pipelines for petroleum.
Energy
Coal-operated power plants create nearly 71% of Israel’s electricity. Diesel-operated power plants create 24% of the total energy, and natural gas run plants account for 5%. The largest powerplants are located at Orot Rabin.
