The National Coal Ash Board of Israel states on its website that it "was established in 1993 with the objective of coordinating the effort at a national level to solve the problem of ash accumulation at the power plants, chose to deal with the problem by advancing the use of coal ash as a resource having economic value, in various sectors, as is done in most of the developed countries in the world."[1]
The board states that ash originates from the existing coal-fired Orot Rabin power station in Hadera, and the Rutenberg power station in Ashkelon.
