Majid Al Futtaim partners with Yellow Door Energy to develop solar plant at Bahrain Mall

Majid Al Futtaim has entered into a 6.2 megawatt-peak solar power purchase agreement (PPA) with Yellow Door Energy, a solar developer for commercial and industrial businesses, to provide clean energy to The Bahrain Mall, operated by Carrefour Bahrain. Spanning over 40,000 square metres, the project will be the largest private solar plant in Bahrain, according to a press release on Wednesday. The rooftop solar plant is expected to produce 10 million kilowatt-hours of clean energy in its first year of operation, cutting carbon emissions by 6,300 tonnes. With more than 11,600 installed solar panels, the plant will meet 50% of the shopping mall's energy consumption needs. Carrefour Bahrain will lead the solar plant project for the next 20 years, while Yellow Door Energy will invest and support the project by building, designing, and maintaining the solar plant.
