   1.                                                   We note your disclosure
in Figure 1 of Total Segment Revenue, which includes proceeds
                                                        recognized as repayment
of a contract asset accounted for under IFRIC 12, per disclosure
                                                        on page F-83. As such,
it appears that disclosure of Total Segment Revenue represents a
                                                        non-IFRS measure.
Please revise to remove the measure or identify the measure as a non-

and include the disclosures required by Item 10(e) of Regulation
                                                        S-K. We note Total
Segment Revenue is also presented in Segment information disclosure

2.       We note your disclosure that you are a global renewable energy
platform and that
         you develop, finance, construct, own, and operate utility-scale
renewable energy projects.
         Please revise the summary disclosure here to briefly describe how you
generate revenues.
3.       We note your statement that your operational projects generated an
annualized
         consolidated return on invested capital of 11.6% as of March 31, 2022.
Please revise to
         provide disclosure consistent with SEC Release No. 33-10751, such as
context for an
         investor to understand this metric.
4.       We note your statement that over the last five years, "Enlight   s
share price has increased
         by approximately 480%, outperforming S&P Renewables index by more than
350%."
         Please revise to include balancing disclosure here to clarify that the
competitors' business
         operations may differ from yours and that your future results may also
be different from
         your prior results.
5.       Please provide support for your statements of belief that 1) your
global platform includes
         some of the largest onshore wind and solar projects across Western
Europe, central and
         eastern Europe and Israel; and that 2) Cl nera is a market leader in
the Mountain West
         region of the United States, pioneering some of the largest renewable
energy projects in
         the region.
6.       Given your multi-jurisdictional operations, please consider including
a
         corporate organizational chart.
Summary consolidated financial and other data
Segment information, page 17

7.       We note your statement that you evaluate segment operating performance
using Segment
         Revenue and Segment Adjusted EBITDA. However, IFRS 8 allows for only
one measure
         of segment profitability. Therefore, disclosure of Segment Revenue
appears to represent a
         non-IFRS measure. Please revise to remove the measure or identify the
measure as a non-
         IFRS financial measure and include the disclosures required by Item
10(e) of Regulation
         S-K. We note Segment Revenue is also presented in Segment information
disclosure
         beginning on page 72.
General business risks
We depend on certain Operational Projects for a substantial portion of our cash
flows, page 31

8.       We note your disclosure that your largest Operational Project,
Blacksmith, accounted for
         approximately 33% of your revenue and 25% of your Total Segment
Revenue for the year
         ending December 31, 2021; and that the impairment or loss of any one
or more of the
         projects in your operating portfolio, such as Blacksmith, could
materially and
         disproportionately reduce your total energy generation and cash flows
and, as a result,
         have a material adverse effect on your business, financial condition
and results of
         operations. We further note your disclosure that, under the terms of
certain of your offtake
         contracts, your projects    delivery of electricity is subject to
curtailment or other

offtake from project
         Blacksmith in 2020. Please file as exhibits any written offtake
agreements related to the
         Blacksmith project, as well as any other projects upon which you are
substantially
         dependent, or advise us why you do not believe you are required to do
so. Refer to
         Item 601(b)(10)(ii)(B) of Regulation S-K, as contemplated by Item 8 of
Form F-1.
Risk Factors
Cost inflation could adversely affect our business and results of operations,
page 33

9.       We note your risk factor indicating that inflation could adversely
affect your costs of land,
         raw materials and labor, and other goods and services needed to
construct your projects,
         which could potentially reduce project profitability. Please update
this risk factor if recent
         inflationary pressures have materially impacted your operations. In
this regard, identify
         the types of inflationary pressures you are facing and how your
business has been
         affected.
Risk Factors
Our amended and restated articles of association to be effective upon the
closing of this offering,
page 53

10.      We note your disclosure that your amended and restated articles of
association will
         provide that, unless you consent in writing to the selection of an
alternative forum, the
         federal district courts of the United States shall be the exclusive
forum for the resolution
         of any claims arising under the Securities Act (the "Federal Forum
Provision"). In that
         regard, we note that Section 22 of the Securities Act creates
concurrent jurisdiction for
         federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or
liability created by the
         Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. As such,
please revise your risk
         factor to state that there is uncertainty as to whether a court would
enforce your Federal
         Forum Provision, and that investors cannot waive compliance with the
federal securities
         laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. To the extent relevant,
please similarly
         revise your risk factor at page 56, concerning the competent courts of
Tel Aviv, Israel as
         the exclusive forum for derivative actions, to address any questions
         concerning enforceability.
Use of Proceeds, page 59

11.      We note your disclosure that you intend to use the net proceeds from
the offering for the
         development and construction of your project portfolio, working
capital purposes and
         general corporate purposes; and that you may also use a portion of the
proceeds to acquire
         or invest in businesses, although you do not have agreements or
commitments for any
         material acquisitions or investments at this time. Please revise to
more specifically
         identify the principal intended uses of the net proceeds and provide
the estimated amounts
         you intend to allocate to each identified purpose. If you do not have
a current specific plan
         for the proceeds of this offering, please state this explicitly and

Supply chain disruptions, page 65

12.      We note your disclosure regarding supply chain disruptions. Please
discuss whether the
         disruptions materially affect your outlook or business goals, and
specify whether
         they have materially impacted your results of operations or capital
resources. Quantify, to
         the extent possible, how your sales, profits, and/or liquidity have
been impacted. Please
         also discuss known trends or uncertainties resulting from mitigation
efforts undertaken, if
         any, and explain whether any mitigation efforts introduce new material
risks.
         Additionally, please file as exhibits to your registration statement
your agreements with
         the suppliers upon which your business is substantially dependent.

Components of statements of operations
Project development expenses, page 67

13.      We note disclosure here regarding the nature of project development
expenses and when
         such costs would be expensed versus capitalized. Please clarify
whether this policy is the
         same described in Note 2(I) for Deferred costs in respect of projects.
If true, it appears that
         the accounting policy footnote should be expanded to address the
criteria described here.
         Supplementally, please tell us the accounting guidance you have relied
on to support your
         capitalization policy for project development expenses.
Results of operations
Comparison of the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2021, page 70

14.      Please revise the discussion and analysis of operating results where
the financial
         statements reflect material changes from period-to-period in one or
more line items,
         including where material changes within a line item offset one
another, to describe the
         underlying reasons for these material changes in quantitative and
qualitative terms. Refer
         to Item 5 of Form 20-F. For example, we note the increase in selling,
general and
         administrative expenses on page 72 is attributed to employee salaries
and advisory fees.
         As another example, the explanation for the increase in Central and
Eastern Europe
         segment revenue on page 74 refers to the commercial operation of
project Selac in
         Kosovo and expiration of COVID-19-related curtailment at project
Blacksmith in Serbia.
         Also, please clarify your disclosure on page 74 to explain the nature
of the changes in
         production at your Israeli solar facilities that resulted in increased
segment revenue.
Non-IFRS financial measures, page 75

15.      Your presentation of Total Segment Adjusted EBITDA in any context
other than
         the IFRS 8 required reconciliation in Note 28 is considered the
presentation of a non-
         IFRS measure. Please revise to remove the measure or identify the
measure as a non-
         IFRS financial measure and include the disclosures required by Item
10(e) of Regulation

reconciled FFO to the
         most directly comparable IFRS basis measure. Please revise your
reconciliation
         accordingly.
Liquidity and capital resources, page 76

17.      We note your discussion of how you finance the construction of your
projects and how
         you fund your day-to-day operations. Please expand your discussion to
analyze material
         cash requirements from known contractual and other obligations, and
information
         regarding commitments for capital expenditures. Such disclosures
should specify the type
         of obligation and the relevant time period for the related cash
requirements. In addition,
         include a statement by the company that, in its opinion, the working
capital is sufficient
         for the company   s present requirements, or, if not, how it proposes
to provide the
         additional working capital needed. Refer to Item 5.B of Form 20-F.

         material drivers underlying those factors. Please note that merely
citing changes in
         working capital items and other items identified in the statement of
cash flows may not
         provide a sufficient basis to understand how and why operating cash
between comparative
