Advancing development of three additional projects in the U.S. and Israel toward construction in 2027–2028, totaling 4.8 GW and representing about $10 billion in investment, with long-term power and capacity arrangements expected to support project economics and capitalize on growing electricity demand in the U.S. and Israel

TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- OPC Energy Ltd. (TASE: OPCE), a leading independent power producer operating in Israel and the U.S., providing reliable and efficient electricity generation through natural gas and renewable energy, today announced its financial results for the second quarter and first half of 2026.

Second Quarter 2026 Highlights:

Giora Almogy, Chief Executive Officer of OPC Energy Ltd., commented:

"We delivered another quarter of strong results, as our investments over the past several years continue to bear fruit, driving exceptional development capabilities especially in the natural gas space, and ensuring new growth engines for the company. In the U.S., we operate in a supportive business environment, characterized by significant long-term structural growth in demand for electricity, led by the accelerated growth in the Data Center sector and especially in our main markets, PJM and ERCOT. As we leverage these positive market trends, we continue to expand our project portfolio, with an investment plan of approximately $7 billion over the coming years in the PJM market.

Meanwhile, development of the Shay project continues to advance, following the recent execution of a 10-year Gas Net Back agreement with EQT Global, a leading U.S. natural gas producer. The project is also expected to participate in PJM's long-term capacity auction in September, which could provide capacity revenues for the project for up to 15 years. In addition, we are accelerating development of the Walker project, for which an agreement has been signed to secure turbine supply from a global equipment manufacturer, while negotiations are underway toward a long-term PPA with a leading global hyperscaler. These projects represent a key pillar of our growth strategy in one of the world's most attractive power markets. In Israel, the commencement of construction of the Hadera Expansion project marks a significant milestone for the Company and the beginning of a new phase in the expansion of our generation capacity. At the same time, we continue to advance the Ramat Beka project, which is expected to reach a final investment decision by year-end. We are also expanding our activities into new areas of electricity demand, led by power supply to data centers, a sector expected to become one of the key drivers of electricity demand in the coming years.

The combination of operating assets, projects under construction, a significant development pipeline, and financial resilience allows us to continue investing in the energy infrastructure of the future and to keep creating sustainable value for our shareholders."
