Bahrain Market Overview and National Commitments
We invite you to join us and attend this webinar titled “Bahrain Market Overview and National Commitments ” where we will discuss Bahrain Solar C&I Market in Focus. This webinar is sponsored by LONGi, organized by MESIA, and participated by many leading companies in the solar PV sector.
As per the latest published MESIA Annual Solar Report, while Bahrain has only installed 10 MW of renewable capacity, the country is aiming for a greener future announcing late last year its plans for a net zero carbon emission target by 2060. The country had already put in place goals to reach a renewable energy target of 5% by 2025 and 10% by 2035. This kingdom of the Arabian Gulf has set a goal of 700 MW of renewable production capacity by the end of 2030, as part of its energy transition.
While renewable energy development in Bahrain is still in its infancy, it is expected to play an increasingly important role in the future, presenting greater opportunities for both the private and public sectors.
