Bahrain-headquartered technology group Beyon has announced the establishment of its second fully green solar-powered data centre with the successful completion of Phase 3 of the Beyon Solar Park developed in partnership with solar solutions company Almoayyed Solar.

With an investment of BHD520,000 (about US$1.4 million), Phase 3 of Beyon’s Solar Park now powers the company’s Tier III-certified data centre in Hamala with 100% renewable energy, making it one of the few fully green data centres in the region. The large-scale on-grid solar system spans over 13,000 square metres and features 2,588 high-efficiency solar panels, generating approximately 2.5 GWh of clean energy annually and reducing carbon emissions by 1,777 tons of CO2 each year.

In addition to its environmental impact, the new infrastructure enhances overall energy resilience, offering an additional layer of redundant power alongside existing generator and EWA feeds. This ensures continuous, reliable uptime for mission-critical systems, while empowering businesses to scale sustainably and confidently.

This announcement follows hard on the heels of news of the completion and commissioning of the new Batelco by Beyon White Space Data Centre, which spans 6,000 square metres and forms part of Beyon’s Data Oasis, a 140,000 square metre site located in southern Bahrain.

The facility features agnostic technology which is adaptive to any sector. Boasting enterprise-grade reliability, and incorporating redundant power and cooling systems, the White Space Data Centre is engineered for scalability to meet the evolving requirements of AI, cloud service providers, hyperscalers, government entities and large enterprises.

Aligned with Beyon’s long-term sustainability goals, the new facility, like the one in Hamala, is directly connected to the company’s Solar Park, drawing a significant share of its electricity from renewables.
