 Re: Enlight Renewable Energy Ltd.

Amendment No. 3 to Draft Registration Statement on Form F-1

Submitted December 14, 2022

CIK No. 0001922641

To the addressees
set forth above:

On behalf of our client,
Enlight Renewable Energy Ltd. (the “Company”), and pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules promulgated thereunder, please find enclosed
for submission with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a complete copy of the
Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1 (the “Registration Statement”), which was initially
submitted to the Commission on a confidential basis pursuant to Title I, Section 106 under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act
on July 25, 2022 and subsequently amended by the Company on September 8, 2022, November 18, 2022 and December 14, 2022 (the
 “Draft Submission”).

The Registration Statement
reflects certain revisions to the Draft Submission in response to the comment letter from the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”)
to Gilad Yavetz, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer dated December 22, 2022 and a verbal comment received from the Staff on
January 18, 2023. The responses provided herein are based on information provided to Latham & Watkins LLP by the Company.

 5. We continue to evaluate your response to prior comment 16 in our letter dated September 21, 2022.

Response:

The Company respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment.

I. Change of estimate
in the accounting treatment of the Halutziot project, page F-123

 6. Based on your response to prior comment 4, we note you determined that there is significant residual
interest in the Halutziot facility, comprising approximately 21% of the total value of the facility, based on a useful life of 30 years.
However, it is not clear how this significant residual interest determination results in de-recognition under IFRIC 12 given your previous
conclusion that the facility was a whole-of-life arrangement. To this end, we note disclosure per page F-20 that “in respect of
solar facilities for the production of electricity using photovoltaic technology which commenced operation until December 31, 2016, the
Company made specific economic calculations for each of the facilities which it owns, and reached the conclusion that the residual value
from additional continued operation, beyond 20 years, is negligible relative to the facility’s total value.”

Based on the foregoing,
it would appear that an arrangement where the infrastructure is used for its entire useful life would be within the scope of IFRIC 12
provided condition IFRIC 12.5(a) is met. This would appear to be the case irrespective of which party controls any remaining insignificant
residual interest. Therefore, please provide further explanation to support your conclusion that the Halutziot facility is no longer under
the scope of IFRIC 12.

Response:

The Company respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff as follows:

In the second quarter
of 2022 (the “Reassessment Date”) the Company performed a reassessment of the Halutziot project (the “Project”).
This reassessment was required due to a significant change in the terms of the arrangement between the Company and the Israeli Electricity
Authority (the “Arrangement”), that was approved by the Israeli Electricity Authority.

Under the initial
terms of the Arrangement, the Company was restricted from making any changes to the Project facility during the Arrangement period, including
changes to the configuration of the facility and any upgrades to the facility’s equipment.

As of the Reassessment
Date, the Israeli Electricity Authority approved an amendment to the Arrangement pursuant to which the Company is permitted to make both
changes to the configuration of the facility and to upgrade the facility’s equipment, including by replacing the facility’s
solar panels with new and more efficient solar panels that maximize production. Following the Reassessment Date, the Company implemented
such an upgrade, which, in addition to increasing the production of, and sales of electricity from, the Project, also extended the useful
life of the Project by seven years and increased the installed capacity on the site’s footprint from 55 MW to 88 MW.

    January 20, 2023
 Page 4

Based on the Arrangement,
as is in effect since the Reassessment Date, the Company’s conclusion is that as of the Reassessment Date, the residual value of
the Project following the completion of the Arrangement period will be 21% of the total Project value, which the Company considers to
be a significant residual value. Given that the Company will maintain ownership of the facility following the completion of the Arrangement
period and the significant residual value of the project, the Company has determined that the Project is not a whole-of-life arrangement
and is therefore not subject to IFRIC 12.

The Company further
notes that before applying the change in accounting treatment in the Company’s financial statements, the Company formally pre-cleared
its accounting analysis, which relates to specific changes in Israeli law and regulation, with the staff of the Israeli Securities Authority.

J. Purchase of solar and
wind portfolio in Croatia which is in the development stages, in a cumulative ..., page F-123

 7. We note you closed on the acquisition of a portfolio of five projects in Croatia in July 2022 and your
disclosure that the amount with respect to the first milestone payment was an immaterial part of the total consideration. Please revise
your disclosure to include the financial effect of this transaction in its entirety, if material, and clarify the nature of the guarantee
to secure the milestones. As part of your revised disclosure, include the U.S. dollar equivalent of the total consideration and total
estimated construction costs.

Response:

The Company respectfully acknowledges the
Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that the first milestone payment was in the amount of EUR 1.3 million, which the Company does
not consider to be material, and that the remaining payments will be made only if the applicable projects will reach a “ready to
build” status (“RTB”). Such remaining payments can reach up to EUR 32.1 million in the aggregate if all
five projects were to reach RTB and the Company has given a parent company guarantee to secure these remaining payments. As the financial
effect of this transaction in its entirety is not material to the Company and represents approximately 1% or less of the Company’s total
assets, the Company did not disclose these amounts in Note 4 to its financial statements.

The Company respectfully
advises the Staff that it has revised the disclosure on page F-123 to include the U.S. dollar equivalent of the total estimated construction
costs.

G. Update to the terms
of the PPA for the Bjorn project in Sweden, page F-123

 8. We note you reached agreement for an increase in price and quantity under your power purchase agreement
in the Bjorn project in June 2022. Tell us whether there is an accounting impact associated with the revised pricing. In this regard,
tell us how you considered contract modification guidance in paragraphs 18-21 of IFRS 15.

Response:

The Company respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that the amendment to the PPA was signed in June 2022, while the production
in this project did not begin until October 2022. The Company has considered the contract modification guidance in paragraphs 18-21 of
IFRS 15 with respect to the modification of the power purchase agreement in the Bjorn project and as the sale of electricity from this
project has not started at the date of the amendment, there is no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

K. Update and improvement
of the terms of the power purchase agreement for the Atrisco solar project ..., page F-124

 9. We note you reached agreement for an increase in prices under your power purchase agreement in the
Atrisco solar project in July 2022. Tell us whether there is an accounting impact associated with the revised pricing. In this regard,
tell us how you considered contract modification guidance in paragraphs 18-21 of IFRS 15.

Response:

The Company respectfully
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that the amendment to the PPA was signed in July 2022 while this project
will only start production in 2024. The Company considered the contract modification guidance in paragraphs 18-21 of IFRS 15 with respect
to the modification of the power purchase agreement in the Atrisco solar project and as the sale of electricity from this project has
not started at the date of the amendment, there is no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Verbal comment received
from the Staff on January 18, 2023

 10. We note from the disclosure on pages 2 and 90 that the ratio you disclosed is computed as an annualized
total amount of Segment Adjusted EBITDA of three of your segments based on invested capital in your operational projects. Please address
the following as it relates to this ratio:

 · Explain why you calculate an annualized performance measure
on one quarter when you indicate on pages 49 and 66 that both your solar energy and wind energy projects are impacted by seasonal trends.

 · Describe in more detail the estimate or assumption underlying
each component of the measure. For example, disclose that Segment Adjusted EBITDA includes the adjustments for the repayment of construction
contracts under concession arrangements. As another example, describe how invested capital is determined.

Response:

The Company
respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and advises the Staff that the Company believes that the use of an annualized
total amount of Segment Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate given the rapid growth of the Company’s Operational Projects between
quarters in 2022, which resulted in a rapid growth in the Company’s Segment Adjusted EBITDA in between quarters, making the
use of an annualized total amount more appropriate than, for example, a trailing 12 months total amount. In addition, the
Company’s geographic and technologic diversity substantially mitigates any seasonal effects.

The Company respectfully
advises the Staff that it has revised the disclosure on pages 2 and 92 to describe in more detail the estimate or assumption underlying
each component of the measure.
