Solar Paz was created in late 2008 as a subsidiary of Paz Oil, in the Paz Industries division, after the cabinet approved incentives for independent electricity production using solar energy. Solar Paz is focusing on installing photovoltaic systems that will produce up to 50 kilowatts for commercial and industrial enterprises. To date Paz has already installed 114 kilowatt of photovoltaic facilities on the rooftops of Paz gas stations at Atlit and Kadima and Pazgas’ offices at Airport City. The Paz solar plants include: (1) Kadima where a 29 KWH system has been installed for 700 thousand shekels; at Atlit a station that will supply 43 KWH; at the station at Tivon a 36 KWH station will be installed and a power station at Ashelim that will supply 15 MW. Paz is the first energy company to install photovoltaic panels on the rooftop of its petrol stations
