Project Brief:
The project will provide quick and cost-efficient alternate energy for already Over stretched national grid through solar energy. 1st Priority will be given to the Masajid & Worship places located in Off-grid areas and 2nd priority will be given to the Masajid & worship places located in heavy toad shedding areas & the 3rd priority will be given to those Masajid which have solar system but in need of Strengthening, against the provided list. The list of Masajid Worship places will be provided by the Competent Authority which be further forwarded by the administrative department requirement/need basis.
Salient Features:
PC-I Cost: PKR. 4,362.978 Million
Completion Period: 1.5 Year
Completion Date with DLP: 30th June, 2025
Total Masajid to be Solarized: 5000
Capacity: 10.8 MW
Annual Energy (MWh): 59.4 MWh/Year
Annual Saving: 430 Million/year (Expected)
Current Status:
- Survey of all Sites Completed
- Partial Installations Initiated.
Challenges Faced During Implementation:
- Delays being faced due to restriction on imports under
Pakistan Tariff Codes HS 84 & 85 and processing of LCs.
The proposed solar systems will be based on provision of following main items:

Advance Backup technology Lithium-ion Batteries with high life cycle and deep discharge rate.
Off grid hybrid inverters having built in MPPT with high better conversion efficiency.
Energy Efficient Ceiling Fans.
Energy Efficient LED light bulbs.
Voltage regulators.
Protective devices (SPDS & OVDs etc.).
Earthing/grounding.
Hot dipped galvanized PV mounting structure.
