Majid Al Futtaim, the leading shopping mall, communities, retail, and leisure pioneer across the Middle East, Africa and Asia, has inaugurated a 6.2 megawatt-peak solar power plant with Yellow Door Energy at The Bahrain Mall, operated by Carrefour Bahrain.

Yellow Door Energy is the leading sustainable energy partner for commercial and industrial businesses in the Middle East, Africa and beyond.

The project was developed through a solar power purchase agreement (PPA), signed between Majid Al Futtaim and Yellow Door Energy.

The 6.2 megawatt-peak rooftop solar plant produces 10 million kilowatt-hours of clean energy in the first year of operation, equivalent to reducing carbon emissions by 7,100 metric tons.
