World's largest rooftop solar plant to be built of 189,000 panels

Bahrain is set to build the world’s largest single-site rooftop solar power plant, featuring over 189,000 high-efficiency solar panels with a total capacity of 123 megawatt-peak (MWp). The project is a collaboration between Bahrain-based industrial giant Foulath Holding and Yellow Door Energy, a leading sustainable energy developer in the Middle East and Africa. The installation will include 77,000 panels on a newly constructed 262,000-square-meter stockyard shed, generating 50 MWp of rooftop capacity, alongside additional rooftop and on-ground photovoltaic systems. Expected to produce around 200 million kilowatt-hours of clean electricity annually, the plant aims to reduce carbon emissions by 90,000 metric tons per year, supporting Bahrain’s Net Zero 2060 target. This initiative addresses Bahrain’s limited land availability by utilizing rooftop space for scalable solar energy generation, marking a significant step in the country’s clean energy transition. Foulath Holding has committed approximately $250 million to
