Utility costs in Israel — electricity, water, gas, and arnona (municipal property tax) — vary by provider, residential area, and consumption patterns, with complex tariff structures including tiers, discounts, and seasonal surcharges. With the opening of the electricity market to independent producers, the introduction of smart meters, and the expansion of residential solar energy, there are more options than ever but also more confusion. This skill consolidates tariff information for all services, enables provider comparison, and calculates the return on investment for renewable energy.
