After the National Infrastructures Ministry announced it would expand its feed-in tariff scheme to include medium-sized solar-power stations ranging from 50 kilowatts to 5 megawatts, Sunday Solar Energy announced that it would invest $133 million in photovoltaic solar arrays for installation on kibbutzim.
However, even though Israeli engineers have been involved in both photovoltaic and concentrated solar power, the earliest Israeli companies which have become market leaders in their respective fields have all been involved in concentrated solar power.
The Ministry of National Infrastructures estimates solar water heating saves Israel 2 million barrels (320,000 m 3) of oil a year. On 2 June 2008, the Israeli Public Utility Authority approved a feed-in tariff for solar plants.
