In Israel's northern mountainous region are located wind turbines. The
Israeli company, Enlight operates the Genesis Wind complex: 34 General Electric turbines which can produce 180MW. 5 additional turbines can be added raising capacity to 207MW. Emek HaBacha provides 109MW. Gilboa provides 11.9MW.
