99.1 Press Release, dated March 30, 2018: Kenon Provides Updates with Respect to its Interest in OPC

Kenon Provides Updates with Respect to its Interest in OPC

Singapore, March 30, 2018. Kenon Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: KEN) (TASE: KEN) ("Kenon") announces updates in respect of its holding of OPC Energy ("OPC"), in which Kenon holds a 76% interest.

In August 2017, the Israel Electricity Authority (the "EA") received a letter from the Israel Concentration Committee stating that it believed that, for reasons of broad economy concentration (i.e. taking into account businesses owned by related entities of Kenon's controlling shareholder), OPC should not be granted a license for the construction of the Tzomet facility.

In March 2018, OPC completed the acquisition of 95% of the shares of Tzomet Energy, although Tzomet still requires (among other requirements) a license from the EA.

Kenon is considering various options which could address the letter from the Israel Concentration Committee, but no sale, in full or in part, of OPC is being considered.

This press release corrects an inaccurate press release that was incorrectly issued earlier today by PR Newswire.
