Bahrain Parliament Reviews BD84 Million in Overdue Utility Bills Amid Solar Power Push

Bahrain’s Parliament is currently reviewing reports of BD84 million in unpaid utility bills as the government continues to subsidize nearly one-third of the nation’s electricity costs. As reported by News of Bahrain, the Electricity and Water Authority (EWA) is simultaneously accelerating 54 new renewable energy projects. This dual-focus strategy aims to address the rising cost of generation while transitioning the Kingdom toward a 500MW solar power capacity to ensure long-term energy sustainability.
