Bahrain Steel, a prominent global supplier of high-grade iron-ore pellets, has unveiled significant investment projects totalling up to $250 million during a high-profile event themed ‘Reimagining Sustainability.’ Attended by Deputy Prime Minister Shaikh Khalid bin Abdulla Al Khalifa and several ministers, the projects align with the company’s environmental conservation and decarbonization efforts.
The investment includes the construction of a structural shed and a solar plant on dedicated industrial land to support Bahrain Steel’s overall operations. The innovative stockyard shed, set to be the world’s largest pre-engineered building, aims to capture airborne iron ore dust emissions. With dimensions reaching 1,500 meters in length, 172 meters in width, and 42 meters in height, the shed is anticipated to be completed by 2026. The project focuses on controlling airborne dust emissions, enhancing air quality, and ensuring worker safety.
Additionally, Bahrain Steel has introduced the kingdom’s largest solar project at 100MW, featuring a groundbreaking 42MW roof-top solar installation, making it the world’s largest of its kind. This solar plant will offset a significant portion of Bahrain Steel’s power demand and reduce carbon emissions. |
