Gulf Warehousing Company (GWC), in collaboration with Yellow Door Energy, has revealed the plan to launch GCC’s largest private solar energy project, reinforcing its commitment to sustainability and cementing its position as a pioneer in green logistics.
The partnership aims to develop solar power plants across three strategic logistics hubs in the region: Logistics Village Qatar, Bu Sulba Warehousing Park and Al Wukair Logistics Park. This initiative falls in line with Qatar National Vision 2030, which aims for 4 GW of new large-scale renewable energy capacity by 2030, with solar playing a key role.

“This announcement marks a major milestone in integrating sustainable practices across all our operations. Warehouses are key to this, and we are excited to partner with Yellow Door Energy to introduce this innovative solution that will deliver real impact at these three sites. The Gulf enjoys an abundance of sunlight and this project will harness this renewable resource to power our operations, not only reducing our carbon footprint but also contributing to a more sustainable future for the region.”
GWC delivers a wide range of services such as contract logistics, freight forwarding, transportation, records management, and supply chain consulting.
As a member of the UN Global Compact, GWC remains committed to adopting sustainable and socially responsible policies across all its activities, aimed at minimizing carbon emissions by 3 percent for Scope 1 (direct emissions from fleet) and 6 percent for Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy), as well as 20 percent reduction in waste by 2030.
Jeremy Crane, Group CEO of Yellow Door Energy, added that, “We are honored to embark on this partnership with GWC to accelerate its sustainability stewardship, reduce its energy costs and contribute to Qatar’s Net Zero by 2050 target. As the largest and most trusted distributed solar developer in the region, Yellow Door Energy is well positioned to help large energy consumers, such as logistics industrial parks, decarbonize their operations and enhance their business resilience. With over 400 MWp of awarded solar assets across 150 sites, our team of dedicated energy professionals is ready to deploy capital, spearhead design and construction whilst adhering to the strictest QHSSE standards, and operate and maintain the solar power systems to maximize their performance during the tenure of the terms.”
Furthermore, GWC has garnered key achievements for its dedication to sustainability. The company earned ‘Logistics Project of the Year’ at the 2025 Logistics Middle East Awards for its Al Wukair Logistics Park. Additionally, GWC secured a spot among Forbes Middle East’s Sustainability Leaders for 2024.
