Multimatrix Ltd. (TASE: MLTX) share rose sharply today after notifying the TASE on Thursday that it had reached an agreement to acquire up to 49% of several wind farm ventures for generating electricity at an investment of NIS 1.5 million.

According to the notice from Multimatrix, one of the wind farms which is on the Golan Heights has been operating for 18 years and is set to expand from the production of 6 megawatts to 14 megawatts, and is in the process of receiving approval for two additional wind farms.
