Pakistan was experiencing unprecedented solarisation of its energy sector, with solar photovoltaic (PV) panels of 33 gigawatts capacity having already been installed across the country, a press release stated on Thursday.
These views were expressed by the speakers at an event organised by the Policy Research Institute for Equitable Development (PRIED), an independent think tank.
The event was held to launch a study, titled Shouting from the rooftops: Mapping Pakistan’s solar power revolution. The study was a joint production of PRIED and Transition Zero, an energy-transition think-thank based in London.
Speakers at the event stated out that Pakistan’s off grid solarisation had become “an unstoppable phenomenon” though it needs to be channeled into the right direction to increase sustainability, affordability and accessibility of electricity across the country.
