Exhibit 99.1

Singapore, June 5, 2023. Kenon Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: KEN, TASE: KEN) ("Kenon") announces its results for Q1 2023 and additional updates.
OPC
3 Represents 100% of ZIM's results. Kenon's share of ZIM's results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was approximately 21% (21% for year ended December 31, 2022).
1 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure. See Exhibit 99.2 of Kenon's Form 6-K dated June 5, 2023 for the definition of CPV's Adjusted EBITDA and ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to their respective net profit for the applicable period.
2 Proportionate share of EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure. See Exhibit 99.2 of Kenon's Form 6-K dated June 5, 2023 for the definition of OPC's proportionate share of EBITDA of associated companies and a reconciliation to its share in profit of associated companies for the applicable period.
Kenon's consolidated results of operations from its operating companies essentially comprise the consolidated results of OPC Energy Ltd ("OPC"). Our share of the results of ZIM Integrated Shipping Ltd. ("ZIM") are reflected under results from associated companies.
See Exhibit 99.2 of Kenon's Form 6-K dated June 5, 2023 for summary of Kenon's consolidated financial information; summary of OPC's consolidated financial information; a reconciliation of OPC's Adjusted EBITDA (which is a non-IFRS measure) to net profit; summary of financial information of OPC's subsidiaries; and a reconciliation of ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA (which is a non-IFRS measure) to net profit.
The following discussion of OPC's results of operations is derived from OPC's consolidated financial statements, as translated into US dollars.

Excluding the impact of translating OPC's revenue from NIS to USD, OPC's revenue increased by \$14 million in Q1 2023, as compared to Q1 2022. Set forth below is a discussion of significant changes in revenue between Q1 2023 and Q1 2022.
OPC's revenue from the sale of electricity to private customers is derived from electricity sold at the generation component tariffs, as published by the Israeli Electricity Authority ("EA"), with some discount. Accordingly, changes in the generation component tariffs generally affect the prices paid under Power Purchase Agreements by customers of OPC-Rotem and OPC-Hadera. The generation component for Q1 2023 was NIS 0.3094 per KW hour, which is approximately 12% higher than the generation component tariff in Q1 2022 of NIS 0.2760 per KW hour. An update to the hourly demand brackets, which became effective from the beginning of the quarter, had a negative impact on our results from Israel activities and caused a change in the seasonality of our revenues, which is expected to result in a significant increase in our results during the summer period at the expense of the other months of the year (particularly the first quarter).

| Israel | 94 | 91 |

As OPC's cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) is denominated in NIS, excluding the impact of translating OPC's cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) from NIS to USD, OPC's cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) increased by \$15 million in Q1 2023, as compared to Q1 2022. Set forth below is a discussion of significant changes in cost of sales between Q1 2023 and Q1 2022.
Finance expenses, net in Q1 2023 was \$5 million, which is largely in line with Q1 2022 of \$6 million.
OPC's share of profit of associated companies, net decreased by \$6 million in Q1 2023 to \$24 million, as compared to \$30 million in Q1 2022, primarily as a result of a decline in gas and electricity prices. This, together with increase in the unavailability of power plant from unplanned maintenance work, contributed to a decrease in energy margins which was partially offset by the realization of hedging gains.
For further details of the performance of associated companies of CPV, refer to OPC's immediate report published on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE") on May 24, 2023 and the convenience English translations furnished by Kenon on Form 6-K on May 24, 2023.
As of March 31, 2023, OPC had cash and cash equivalents of \$416 million (excluding restricted cash), restricted cash of \$21 million (including debt service reserves of \$14 million), and total outstanding consolidated indebtedness of \$1,285 million, consisting of \$52 million of short-term indebtedness and \$1,233 million of long-term indebtedness. As of March 31, 2023, a substantial portion of OPC's debt was denominated in NIS.
As of March 31, 2023, OPC's proportionate share of debt (including accrued interest) of CPV associated companies was \$842 million and proportionate share of cash and cash equivalents was \$17 million.

In June 2022, OPC, through a subsidiary, had entered into a purchase agreement with Dor Alon Energy in Israel (1988) Ltd. and Dor Alon Gas Power Plants Limited Partnership (together, "Dor Alon") for the purchase by OPC of a partnership (the "Partnership") which owns a combined-cycle power plant powered by conventional energy with installed capacity of 75 MW located in the Kiryat Gat area which began commercial operation in November 2019 (the "Power Plant").
On March 30, 2023, OPC announced that that it completed the acquisition of the Partnership.
In connection with the completion of the acquisition, OPC made payment of NIS 572 million (approximately \$163 million), after making adjustments to the working capital and cash balances, and Dor Alon transferred all rights in the Partnership. The payment of NIS 572 million consisted of (i) a payment of NIS 270 million by OPC to Dor Alon, and (ii) repayment by OPC of certain senior debt extended to the Power Plant in the amount of NIS 302 million. The outstanding consideration of approximately NIS 300 million (approximately \$86 million) is due to be paid by December 31, 2023.
On April 5, 2023, OPC announced that OPC's subsidiary, CPV Group LP ("CPV"), through a 100% owned subsidiary, completed the acquisition of 100% of the interests in four operating wind-powered electricity power plants in Maine, United States.
The purchase price for the acquisition was \$175 million, after adjustments, of which \$100 million was financed with equity from CPV's shareholders, including OPC, which contributed its portion (i.e. 70%) of such equity investment. CPV financed the remaining purchase price of \$75 million with a loan facility with a five year term.
On May 10, 2023, OPC announced that, OPC's subsidiary, OPC Power Plants Ltd. (an 80%-owned subsidiary of OPC), won a tender of the Israel Land Authority ("ILA") to design renewable energy electricity generation facilities using photovoltaic technology with an option to acquire lease rights for land in Israel for construction in three areas in Neot Hovav Industrial Local Council, with a total area of approximately 2,270 dunams (approximately 561 acres). The amount of total bid submitted by OPC for all three areas, in aggregate, was approximately NIS 484 million (approximately \$133 million).
OPC announced that it intends to promote the establishment of a project to generate electricity using photovoltaic technology in these three areas, with an estimated cumulative capacity of 245 megawatts and an estimated storage capacity of 1,375 megawatt hours. The total development cost for solar projects in the three areas is estimated by OPC to be between NIS 2,240 million (approximately \$614 million) and NIS 2,375 million (approximately \$651 million).
CPV Valley reached agreements in principle for the extension of the term of a financing agreement, whose contractual repayment date in regard to the loan is scheduled to be due on June 30, 2023. The extension of the term of the financing agreement is subject to obtaining formal approvals and signing final documents, which, are expected to take place before the end of Q2 2023.
ZIM carried approximately 769 thousand TEUs in Q1 2023 representing a 10% decrease as compared to Q1 2022, in which ZIM carried approximately 859 thousand TEUs. The average freight rate in Q1 2023 was \$1,390 per TEU, as compared to \$3,848 per TEU in Q1 2022.
ZIM's revenues decreased by approximately 63% in Q1 2023 to approximately \$1.4 billion, as compared to approximately \$3.7 billion in Q1 2022, primarily due to a decrease in freight rates as well as carried volume.
ZIM's net loss was \$58 million, as compared to net income of \$1.7 billion in Q1 2022. ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA6 in Q1 2023 was \$373 million, as compared to \$2.5 billion in Q1 2022.
5 Represents 100% of ZIM's results. Kenon's share of ZIM's results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was approximately 21% (21% for year ended December 31, 2022). 6 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure. See Exhibit 99.2 of Kenon's Form 6-K dated June 5, 2023 for the definition of ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to its respective net profit for the applicable period.

In the fourth quarter of 2021, Quantum initiated arbitral proceedings against the Majority Shareholder and Baoneng Group with China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission for the sale of remaining 12% interest. The proceedings are ongoing.
For information on our agreement to sell our remaining interest in Qoros, and the ongoing proceedings relating to this agreement, and on Qoros' loan agreements and our pledges in respect of Qoros debt see Kenon's most recent annual report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC.
As of March 31, 2023, Kenon's stand-alone cash position was \$643 million. In April 2023, Kenon received a dividend of \$159 million (\$151 million net of tax) from ZIM and paid a dividend of \$150 million in April 2023. As of June 5, 2023, Kenon's stand-alone cash position was \$640 million. There is no material debt at the Kenon level.
Kenon's stand-alone cash position includes cash and cash equivalents and other treasury management instruments.
In March 2023, Kenon announced a share repurchase plan of up to \$50 million, pursuant to which repurchases may be made from time to time through open market purchases on the TASE or the NYSE or by way of off-market purchases in accordance with an equal access scheme, or by other means that comply with applicable laws.
Kenon entered into an initial mandate for repurchases of up to \$12 million of shares through open market purchases on the TASE only, which initial mandate expired on May 25, 2023. We repurchased \$7 million of shares pursuant to this initial mandate under the share repurchase plan.
Kenon has entered into a second repurchase mandate for repurchases of up to \$20 million of shares through open market purchases on the TASE only, to be implemented by a broker who will have discretion as to repurchases pursuant to irrevocable instructions which include parameters as to price and volume set by Kenon, within the safe harbor from insider trading liability pursuant to the "Israel Securities Authority Opinion 199-8". Such mandate will expire on August 25, 2023.

This press release, including the financial tables, presents OPC's Adjusted EBITDA and share of EBITDA of its associated companies, which are non-IFRS financial measures.
OPC EBITDA is defined for each period as net profit before depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, and income tax expense and Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net profit before depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, income tax expense and share of profits of associated companies, net. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized under IFRS or any other generally accepted accounting principles as a measure of financial performance and should not be considered as a substitute for net profit or loss, cash flow from operations or other measures of operating performance determined in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to represent funds available for dividends or other discretionary uses because those funds may be required for debt service, capital expenditures, working capital and other commitments and contingencies. There are limitations that impair the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as measures of OPC's profitability since it does not take into consideration certain costs and expenses that result from OPC's business that could have a significant effect on net profit, such as financial expenses, taxes, and depreciation and amortization.
OPC believes that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA and share of EBITDA of its associated companies provide useful information to investors and financial analysts in their review of the company's, its subsidiaries', and its associated companies' operating performance and in the comparison of such operating performance to the operating performance of other companies in the same industry or in other industries that have different capital structures, debt levels and/or income tax rates.
Set forth below are reconciliations of OPC's net profit to Adjusted EBITDA and share of net profit or losses to share of EBITDA of its associated companies for the periods presented. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently, and therefore this presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

This press release, including the financial tables, presents ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-IFRS financial measure.
ZIM defines Adjusted EBITDA as for each period as net profit before depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, income tax (benefits)/expense and non-cash charter hire expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is not recognized under IFRS or any other generally accepted accounting principles as a measure of financial performance and should not be considered as a substitute for net profit or loss, cash flow from operations or other measures of operating performance determined in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent funds available for dividends or other discretionary uses because those funds may be required for debt service, capital expenditures, working capital and other commitments and contingencies. There are limitations that impair the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of ZIM's profitability since it does not take into consideration certain costs and expenses that result from ZIM's business that could have a significant effect on net profit, such as financial expenses, taxes, and depreciation and amortization.
ZIM believes that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA enables the comparison of operating performance between periods on a consistent basis. This measure should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for operating income, any other performance measure, or cash flow data, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as measures of profitability or liquidity. In addition, non-IFRS financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, due to differences in the way these measures are calculated.
Set forth below is a reconciliation of ZIM's net profit to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented.
