Mark Siegel, President Carter’s former advisor, who resigned his post in protest against Administration policies which he felt were harmful to Israel, has been named director of the Heliothermal-Miromit Corporation, an Israeli-American enterprise dealing with solar energy.
The announcement was made by Itzhak Matza, chairman of the board of the American Heliothermal-Miromit Corporation which manufactures and distributes solar energy equipment and components throughout the world, and managing director of Miromit Ltd., the Israeli company which developed and planned the fuel-free hot water system and the solar heating collectors.
Miromit, operating in Israel for two decades, merged last year with the American Heliothermal Corporation of Denver, Colo., which has already installed Israeli-made solar heating equipment in the U.S.
