According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), Bahrain’s installed solar capacity reached 66 MW by the end of 2024.
Separately, earlier this month Foulath Holding, a Bahrain-based steel investment company, and Dubai-based developer Yellow Door Energy announced a 123 MW solar initiative in Bahrain. The project includes a 50 MW rooftop installation that is planned to become the world’s largest single-site rooftop solar power plant upon completion.
These developments support Bahrain’s ongoing expansion of renewable energy infrastructure and contribute to the country’s growing portfolio of clean power generation projects across public-sector and large-scale commercial applications.
