The demand for electricity in
Israel is growing at a fast and
steady pace
Demand is driven by both
population growth and the
increase in electricity
consumption per household
IEC’s demand forecast,
which is used for long term
planning of the generation
segment, anticipates an
average annual increase of
3.0% in peak demand in the

2. Part of the area at the Rutenberg power station (that was designated in the past for Project which did not carry out) will be transferred pursuant to the assets arrangement agreement as defined in Note 1f in the FY2020 Financial Statements’. As for now, the stage of evacuation of the infrastructure, fencingand preparing part of the area intended for delivery to the Israel Land Authority (ILA), in accordance with the reform outline, was completed. The remaining area evacuation and its delivery is awaiting the completion of examinations by the ILA regarding the economic potential of the after-sale area and to itsdecision. Transfer of the area in practice to the State through the ILA has not been carried out, notice that the Ministry of Energy, the EA and the ILA are expected to make decisions regarding how the area will be transferred, notice for the future use intended for the area, and some other ILA's decisions arerequired on the evacuation of infrastructure facilities from the site and the financing format of evacuation costs eligible for the company. Then, a suitable agreement between the Company and the State will be signed, for the purpose of transferring the area, in accordance with the decisions which beenmade, as aforesaid.
3. The implementation date of the transfer and separation the system management activity to the responsibility of the System Management Company (SMC), which originally set for December 3, 2019, was postponed by the relevant bodies and regulators until June 3, 2020 and then postponed again toDecember 3, 2020. On June 17, 2020, the Electricity Authority decided to grant a license to the SMC, which was approved on June 25, 2020 by the Minister of Energy, and in accordance with its terms, the system management activity will enter into force as soon as possible, and no later than December 3,2020, subject to the approval of the Authority and the Minister of Energy that the SMC is prepared to commence operation of the activity. Due to additional delays, a framework was formulated of transferring the system management activities from the company to the SMC in a graduated manner, so that inthe first stage the activities of the Planning Development Technology Division (PDT) and some of the activities of Statistics and Market Research Department will be transferred from the company to SMC, subject to the amendment of the special collective agreement (reform and structural andorganizational change), and the receipt of approvals from the Electricity Authority and the Minister of Energy regarding the company's readiness for partial activity. On December 1, 2020 the transfer of the activities of the Planning Development Technology Division and the Statistics and Market ResearchDepartment from the Company to SMC has been completed, after given the approval of the Electricity Authority and the Minister of Energy indicating the readiness of SMC for the start of the partial operation, the amendment of SMC's license was approved, accordingly, by the Minister of Energy and acorrecting collective agreement was signed. In addition, a decision to postpone the date for the beginning of operation of SMC for an additional six months (i.e. until June 3, 2021). For further details, please see Note 1e to the 2020FY Financial Statements.

4. On January 10, 2021, the Company appealed to the Ministry of Energy and the EA in order to extent of the production licenses date on the site of Reading and also applied for the postponement of the site sale. As of this date, the issue of Reading's sale was brought to the attention of the relevant parties inIsrael and no decisions have yet been made regarding the future of the site, which include, among other things, the site's promotional format, the creation regulation that supports this process and the various alternatives to ensure a regular power supply to the Tel-Aviv metropolitan area and at the sametime, it is necessary to promote the relevant legislation in the context of the issue of asbestos removal and to adjust the operating dates of the power station. In light of the above, there is no certainty regarding the possibility of the sale of the Reading site on time.
5. On February 11, 2021, the Electricity Authority published a hearing of the production units regulation in Hagit site after their future sale by the Company. For further details, see Note 3 in the 2020FY Financial Statements.

The Electricity Tariff
In accordance with the Electricity Sector Law, the electricity tariff is set by the Electricity Authority (EA) and reformulated from time to time. The outline of the
formula is as follows:
Actual costs are examined every 2 weeks by
the EA (at the time of CPI and fuel prices
changes)
Discrepancies between forecasted costs and
actual cost are reconciled on the earlier of:
A difference of 3.5%, provided that 3
months
have passed since the last update
A difference of 5.5%
The Annual Update
Once a year, The current year's
costs are updated based on
forecasts as well as on previous
years' reckoning - the gap
between the previous year's
forecast components and the
actual costs of the previous year
On December 29, 2020, the EA issued a resolution regarding the
annual 2021 tariff update. According to the EA’s decision, the
average household electricity tariff and the market electricity tariff
will fall by approximately 2.3% and 4.9%, respectively, as of 1/1/21,
mainly due to:
The sale of Ramat Hovav Power Station
Decline in the NG and coal prices
The above was partially offset by:
Increased renewable energy consumption

Implementing Government policies
The State of Israel signed the Paris Agreement in
2016 and has significantly limited the usage of coal
for electricity generation
An emissions reduction project in the larger coal
units was executed at a significant cost of NIS 7.1
billion (1)
Government target of Israel is to be “coal free” by
2030. The Israeli Electricity Market will stop
routine coal use until 2025 and no later than 2026
following the Israeli Minister of Energy's policy
principles on 11/24/2019
IEC is financially protected from change in fuel mix
by the electricity tariff
The Future of Coal
The current coal capacity is 4,840 MW of which:
• 1,440 MW will be mothballed in 2022/23
following the Israeli Minister of Energy decision on
2/8/2021
• 3,400 MW are expected to be converted to NG by
2025 following the Israeli Minister of Energy’s
policy principles on 11/24/2019
