Arava Power Company (APC) is Israel's leading solar developer and a pioneer in mid-size and large-size solar fields. Using photovoltaic technology, Arava Power Company brings solar power to Israel without emissions, smoke, noise or use of water. Founded in 2006, Arava Power Company seeks to supply hundreds of megawatts of green energy to Israel through alliances with kibbutzim, Negev Bedouin, and other Negev landowners. In 2009, Siemens partners with Arava Power Company and invested $15 million to acquire a 40% stake in the company. JNF-KKL also invested in Arava Power Company and the company became the first and only private company investment for JNF-KKL. Arava Power Company seeks to fulfill Ben Gurion's vision of making Israel's desert a center for solar production. In 1956 Ben Gurion stated that "the largest and most impressive source of energy in our world and the source of life for every plant and animal, yet a source so little used by mankind today is the sun… solar energy will continue to flow towards us almost indefinitely." With each new solar field the need for new coal plants diminishes. With its dedication to a cleaner, greener Israel, Arava Power Company continues to be a pioneer in the solar industry and create new ways to ensure a future for the solar energy market. .
