Zain Bahrain and Huawei switch on Bahrain’s fastest EV chargers in Seef
Oct 29, 2025

Zain Bahrain has activated Bahrain’s fastest EV chargers at its Seef headquarters in partnership with Huawei, introducing 360kW liquid-cooled units managed by smart software for real-time monitoring and alerts. The rollout sits inside the Zain Business portfolio to help enterprises adopt sustainable charging as part of operations.
“Zain Bahrain’s partnership with Huawei reflects the company’s continuous commitment to innovation and the adoption of cutting-edge technologies in support of its sustainability goals. We are proud to lead the way in introducing the region’s fastest EV charging technology to Bahrain, setting new standards for speed, reliability, and environmental responsibility. This milestone reflects Zain Bahrain’s support of the government’s direction toward achieving net-zero emissions and building a sustainable infrastructure for the future.” said Amar Buali, Director, Access Network, IP, Cyber Security & Building Services at Zain Bahrain.
“Our partnership with Zain Bahrain is a powerful realization of Huawei’s commitment to delivering intelligent digital power solutions that drive clean energy transitions. Deploying the region's fastest EV charging technology in Bahrain exemplifies this mission. We are proud to support the government's visionary goals, helping the Kingdom accelerate its journey toward net-zero emissions and achieving its crucial sustainability targets.” said Yang Qingyuan, Gulf North Digital Power Director at Huawei.

For Bahrain’s ecosystem, the move aligns with recent national messaging on climate goals. A BNA update last week reaffirmed commitment to carbon neutrality by 2060, underscoring the push for cleaner power and transport. That policy backdrop helps corporate sites justify workplace charging and fleet electrification, especially where fast turnarounds matter.
Demand signals are rising across the built environment. A recent GDN report on building sustainability highlighted energy intensity challenges in Bahrain, a reminder that smart infrastructure, including high-efficiency charging, can lower operating costs while advancing ESG targets. Facilities teams can pair site solar with liquid-cooled DC hardware to keep performance stable in hot, humid conditions.
For operators planning deployments, coordination with the Electricity and Water Authority (EWA) and listings like the national EV charging locator can help align siting and user access. On the technology side, Huawei’s smart charging platform supports liquid-cooled ultra-fast modules, which cut maintenance and noise while improving thermal stability. Together, these choices shorten charge times and keep uptime high for public and workplace hubs.
Why this matters now for founders and fleet owners. Ultra-fast charging at a visible corporate campus shows how private sites can anchor public adoption. Teams can start by auditing dwell times, then model a mixed deployment of 360kW DC for fast-turn vehicles and lower-power AC for long-stay parking. With national net-zero goals back in focus and enterprise hardware maturing, Bahrain is well placed to scale practical EV infrastructure that fits daily operations. BNA’s recent climate brief reinforces that timing.
