Exhibit 99.1

Kenon Announces Pricing of Institutional Tranche of  its Subsidiary OPC’s Initial Public Offering

Singapore, August 3, 2017.  Kenon Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: KEN; TASE: KEN) is providing updates on its subsidiary OPC Energy Ltd.’s (“OPC”) initial public offering (“IPO”) of its ordinary shares in Israel, and contemplated listing on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

OPC currently has 100,000,021 shares outstanding, all of which are owned by I.C. Power Asia Development Ltd, and 1,000,000 shares underlying management share options.

The IPO consists of an offering to institutional investors, as well as a retail offering. Institutional investors have submitted orders in respect of the IPO, resulting in a sale by OPC of 28,200,000 newly issued ordinary shares at a price of NIS13.7 (approximately US$3.83¹) per share for total consideration of NIS386 million (approximately US$108 million). In light of the demand from institutional investors, OPC intends to increase the number of new shares it will offer in the IPO from 28,200,000 shares to 34,000,000 shares.

The price determined in the institutional offering of NIS13.7 (approximately US$3.83) per share will constitute the minimum price per share in the retail offering. The final pricing of the IPO will be determined after the retail offering.

The listing remains subject to regulatory approval in Israel and the offering and listing, and the timing thereof, are subject to market conditions.

The shares of OPC referred to herein have not been and will not be registered under the US Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption for registration under that act.
