What Dalia Energy does
Dalia Energy (דליה אנרגיות) is Israel's largest private electricity supplier, operating as a vertically integrated power producer and electricity retailer since 2005. The company owns and operates two power plants with a combined installed capacity of 2,518 MW: the 900 MW Dalia Power Plant at the Tzafit site in the Judean Foothills (operational since 2015) and the 1,606 MW Eshkol Power Plant in Ashdod (acquired from the Israel Electric Corporation in June 2024 for NIS 9 billion). Together these plants produce approximately 16% of Israel's electricity using combined-cycle gas turbine technology, with 58% efficiency at the legacy Dalia plant and 63-64% at planned H Class expansions. Supporting infrastructure includes an 88 MWh lithium-ion energy storage facility using Sungrow technology, operational since 2024.
Dalia sells electricity directly to two customer segments: large business customers with annual electricity bills exceeding NIS 500,000, served through dedicated enterprise field sales, and private households served since 2023 through a distributor network following the opening of Israel's electricity supply market. Pricing is quote-based, offering discounts to Israel Electric Corporation tariffs on multi-year fixed contracts with no infrastructure changes required. The customer base spans major Israeli enterprises (Shufersal, Unilever Israel, Azrieli Group, McDonald's Israel, Menora Mivtachim, Had-120) plus hundreds of thousands of residential customers. Reported revenue was NIS 2.7 billion in 2024 (EBITDA NIS 1,021M) and NIS 2.6 billion in 2025 (EBITDA NIS 1,162M).
The company is executing a multi-year capex program of over NIS 17 billion: two 850 MW Siemens H Class combined-cycle plants under construction (Dalia Hareda, Eshkol Avshal), a NIS 10 billion Eshkol development program, and the DALIAI AI center and data center project at the Ashdod site with approximately 130 MW of IT capacity and a Ministry of Communications submarine fiber optic cable landing station license. Dalia is privately held by Meshek Energy-Renewable Energies (50%), Hiram Epsilon (25%), Daniel Caesarea Holdings (20%), and Orot Energy Holdings (5%), and carries an A3 bond rating with stable outlook.

Dalia Energy competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- OPC Energy: Israel's other listed private independent power producer, operating natural gas-fired CCGT plants (Rotem and Dorad) supplying private customers. Closest direct peer given shared CCGT technology, Israeli market, and private-supply business model.
Broad incumbents
- Israel Electric Corporation (IEC): State-owned incumbent utility and historical monopoly in generation, transmission, and distribution. Directly comparable as the largest power producer in Israel and the entity from which Dalia is winning market share and acquiring assets.
- Vistra Corp: Large US independent power producer and retail electricity supplier with a significant CCGT and renewables portfolio. Comparable business model: own generation, supply end customers, and manage merchant exposure to wholesale power.
- Calpine Corporation: Largest US fleet of natural gas-fired combined-cycle and geothermal plants, supplying wholesale and retail customers. Closest international analogue to Dalia's CCGT-heavy fleet and supply strategy.
- NRG Energy: US competitive power producer and retail electricity provider with a mix of gas, renewables, and capacity assets. Comparable in operating both generation and customer supply across multiple states.
- Engie: Global utility with a large CCGT and renewables portfolio and energy supply operations across multiple geographies. Comparable at the level of integrated generation-and-supply business and the energy transition pivot.
- Edison International / Sempra Infrastructure: Integrated US utilities with significant CCGT and renewable generation plus regulated and competitive supply. Comparable for the combination of large-scale generation, retail supply, and grid-services capabilities.
Regional players
- Enlight Renewable Energy: Israeli renewable energy developer with wind, solar, and storage projects. Comparable as a competitor in Israel's emerging private supply and PPA markets, though focused on renewables versus Dalia's gas-fired base.
- Shikun & Binui Energy: Israeli infrastructure conglomerate with a growing renewable energy and concessions business. Comparable as a domestic competitor developing private power and energy infrastructure in Israel.
- Energean: Israel-focused upstream oil and gas producer (operator of Karish/Tamar area assets). Comparable because it supplies the natural gas that fuels Dalia's plants and operates in the same Israeli energy ecosystem.
