World Trends Dominant Fossil Fuels

• Coal, oil, and natural gas will continue to
  comprise the major component of the energy supply
  under every eventuality.
• Oil will continue to be the principle fuel and
  while its use will increase, the major increases
  are also expected for coal, mainly for generating
  electricity in China and India.
• The demand for natural gas, hydraulic energy, and
  biomass is expected to increase, while the
  proportion of nuclear energy is expected to drop
  (to the extent that world demand for this form of
  energy remains unchanged).
• Non-fossil fuel alternatives atomic, wind,
  hydro, solar, and biofuels are expected to reduce
  the overall problem to a certain extent, but each
  must overcome numerous obstacles.

World Trends The Dangers of Dependence on Oil
Producers

• Russian and Middle Eastern hegemony in the oil
  market will likely result in forcing up prices.
• Transportation of oil in certain areas may become
  subject to hazardous security conditions.
• Sudden energy crises.
• Price hikes, inflation, and economic harm.
• Impact on the price of natural gas.

World Trends Status of Crude Oil in 2030

• In the worst case scenario, demand will rise from
  84 million barrels a day to 116 barrels a day.
  (103 million b/d under a moderate scenario).
• Oil reserves in North America, Europe, and East
  Asia are declining while demand is increasing,
  principally in the United States and Asia.
• OPEC countries will be supplying almost half of
  the worlds demand for oil.
• Countries friendly to Israel will become
  absolutely dependent on imported oil China 77,
  India 87, European Union 92, Japan and South
  Korea 100, North America 49, total OECD 65.

THE STATE OF ISRAEL THE ENERGY ECONOMY
OUR MISSION Ensuring the continuous supply of
energy in the quantities and quality needed for
the economy at the most optimal economic, social,
and environmental cost, while preserving
strategic sources of supply for the State of
Israel, including supplies for emergency
situations.

• REDUCING STRATEGIC DEPENDENCE ON OIL
• Reducing strategic dependence on importing crude
  oil.
• Cutting the emission of greenhouse gases and
  other pollutants into the atmosphere, ground, and
  water supplies.
• Reducing the heavy burden on the economy
  resulting from the rise of crude oil prices.

DIVERSIFYING THE ENERGY SUPPLY NATURAL GAS
THE ENTRY OF NATURAL GAS INTO THE ISRAELI ENERGY
MARKET HAS CONTRIBUTED TO ISRAELS ECONOMY BY
REDUCING THE NATIONAL MONETARY COST OF ENERGY
FACTORS, REDUCING DEPENDENCE ON IMPORTED OIL AND
OIL BYPRODUCTS, AND SUBSTANTIALLY CUTTING
GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS AND OTHER POLLUTANTS

• TRANSMISSION
• Completing the construction of the natural gas
  transmission system and constructing the main
  eastern transmission line.
• SUPPLY Expanding and Diversifying the Gas
  Market
• Agreements with additional gas suppliers EMG,
  BG, Gazprom.
• Examining the potential for establishing an
  infrastructure corridor with Turkey (constructing
  undersea pipelines from Jihan in southern Turkey
  to a point in Israel) that will enable the import
  of natural gas to Israel, and from there to the
  far East and the United States.
• Bringing liquefied natural gas for transmission
  in Israel (LNG).

DIVERSYING THE ENGERGY SUPPLY RENEWABLE ENERGY
The development of alternative energy sources and
technologies for a more efficient utilization of
energy resources adopting and applying new
technologies

• Developing alternative energy sources for using
  energy resources more efficiently.
• Utilizing principle renewable energy resources
  available in Israel Solar and Wind. Generating
  solar power, wind turbines, pumped water storage
  facilities.
• Advancing power generation and oil production
  from oil shale, using technologies which reduce
  environmental pollutants.
• Initiating and promoting a scientific and
  technological base for renewable energy through
  research and development grants.
• Encouraging and advancing small projects for
  energy savings and efficiency through the
  Startergy fund.

DIVERSIFYING THE ENERGY SUPPLY - ENERGY
CONSERVATION
Encouraging energy conservation to attain various
benefits Economic, Strategic, Environmental,
Better Land Use by way of economic incentives.

• Reducing energy demand by using incentives and
  other economic measures, financial and
  regulatory.
• Changing consumption habits to encourage energy
  efficiency using legislation and regulations to
  encourage the purchase of energy efficient
  appliances such as refrigerators, air
  conditioners, electric motors, etc.)
• Promoting energy efficiency in buildings and
  using solar energy in buildings.
• Setting realistic goals for energy efficiency.
