Welcome,

We are excited to say that the time has come and the Eilat-Eilot conference is back!

The implications of the global economy for climate change can no longer be ignored. Disasters do not differentiate between the Western world and the developing world. We all pay the price, and it is going to get higher.

Now is the time, more than ever, to push forward with all our might to create new partnerships, to uncover innovation, to encourage bold policies and to implement all of these ASAP. It is crucial to achieve the Israeli government target of 30% renewable energies and make this target a reality by 2030.

This goal goes hand in hand with the global process of transitioning to a low-carbon economy which requires decentralized and diversified sources of energy production for electricity, transportation and industry.

To succeed, this process must involve leading players from the worlds of finance, industry, technology and government.

Please join us to share your ideas and be a part of the conversation about our renewable energy future at the upcoming Eilat-Eilot conference.

Looking forward to seeing you there,
Dorit and Noam
