                         TRANSMISSION SERVICE AGREEMENT
                            FOR ALTERNATIVE RESOURCES

     1. PARTIES: The Parties to this Plant Amendment No. 1, and to the
IID-Edison transmission Service Agreement for Alternative Resources
("Agreement"), executed by the Parties as of September 26, 1985, are the
Imperial Irrigation District, organized under the Water Code of the State of
California ("IID") and Southern California Edison Company, a California
corporation ("Edison"), hereinafter sometimes referred to individually as
"Party," and collectively as "Parties."

     2. RECITALS: This Plant Amendment No. 1 is made with reference to the
following facts, among others:

                  2.1 The Agreement provides for, among other things, Edison to
purchase transmission service from IID to deliver the electrical output from
alternative resource facilities located in IID's service area either directly to
Edison's electrical system or to a utility interconnected with IID's electrical
system for ultimate delivery to Edison.

                  2.2 The Agreement also provides for transmission service for
the output of additional alternative resource facilities added subsequent to the
execution of the Agreement. The transmission service for the subsequent
facilities is to be provided for by amending the Agreement.

                  2.3  On June 13, 1984, Edison and Ormat Systems, Inc. entered
into an agreement providing for the purchase by Edison of capacity and
associated energy from Ormat's Ormesa Geothermal Power Plant Unit No. 2.

                                       3


                  2.4 The Parties, therefore, desire to amend the Agreement to
enable Edison to purchase transmission service from IID for the electrical
output from the Ormesa Geothermal Power Plant Unit No. 2. IID is willing to sell
said service to Edison.

              3.  AGREEMENT:  The Parties agree as follows:

              4.  EFFECTIVE DATE:  This Plant Amendment No. 1 shall become
