The latest phase is expected to supply 2.5 GWh of clean energy annually and reduce annual carbon dioxide emissions by more than 1,585 tonnes.
Manama, Bahrain, November 3, 2026: Beyon announced the expansion of its green data center portfolio, with a third data center to run entirely on renewable energy once phase 5 of the Beyon Solar Park program is completed. Announced during Gateway Gulf 2026 in the presence of Beyon Group Chairman Shaikh Abdulla bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, the achievement represents the latest progress in Beyon's long-term investment in sustainable infrastructure and renewable energy.
Phase 5 solar investment
Developed in partnership with Almoayyed Solar, phase 5 involves an investment of approximately 544,500 Bahraini dinars and the installation of 2,292 solar panels across 14,000 square meters. The installation has a total capacity of 1.5 MWp. Once completed in the coming months, it is expected to generate approximately 2.5 GWh of clean energy annually and reduce annual carbon dioxide emissions by more than 1,585 tonnes.
Completion of phase 5 would increase Beyon's renewable-powered green data center portfolio to three sites, further strengthening the group's sustainable digital infrastructure. As demand for data, cloud and digital services continues to grow, the expansion supports Beyon's ambition to build resilient, high-performance infrastructure while progressively reducing the environmental impact of its operations.
The solar program also continues to expand beyond Beyon's data centers. In 2026, Beyon successfully completed phase 4, extending renewable energy adoption to Total CX's customer contact center, which became Bahrain's first green contact center.
The new initiative builds on achievements announced at Gateway Gulf 2025, when phase 3 of the solar park enabled Beyon's Tier III-certified data center in Hamala to operate entirely on renewable energy. These continuing investments reflect a multiyear program to increase the share of clean energy across Beyon's infrastructure and support customers pursuing their own sustainability and ESG goals.
Long-term renewable energy cooperation
Beyon Group Chief Executive Officer Andrew Kvaalseth said, "Data centers are becoming increasingly fundamental to the digital economy, and we believe their continued expansion must be accompanied by more sustainable ways of powering critical infrastructure. Reaching three green data centers is an important milestone in that journey and demonstrates the scale and consistency of our investment in renewable energy. As we continue to expand our digital infrastructure, sustainability and resilience will remain integral to how we invest for the future." Almoayyed International Group Chairman Mohammed Almoayyed said, "Our partnership with Beyon continues to demonstrate the potential of long-term collaboration to build renewable energy infrastructure at a meaningful scale. The successive phases of the solar park program reflect a clear and consistent commitment to clean energy, and we are pleased to support Beyon as it continues to extend the program across its critical infrastructure."
Beyon's collaboration with Almoayyed Solar is part of a long-term program to expand renewable energy use across the group's infrastructure. This continued expansion reinforces Beyon's commitment to integrating renewable energy into its infrastructure and contributing to the Kingdom of Bahrain's sustainability and carbon reduction goals.
