Solar panel prices have suddenly dropped to Rs. 30-32 per Watt, the lowest level in the history of this business in Pakistan.
The prices of solar panels have fallen due to excess supply in the local market and a downward trend in international rates. Sources well informed on the matter said the rate cut comes due to a big decline in rates of lithium batteries worldwide.
The price of lithium batteries has fallen by almost 50 percent in the past 12 months in the international market. While this has significantly impacted domestic solar panel rates, dry batteries haven’t seen much of a rate cut as importers have refused to lower prices for local buyers.
Since 2023, Pakistan’s solar energy market has grown massively with imports from China helping importers meet the rising net metering demand in the country. Expensive grid electricity has forced thousands of consumers to switch to cheaper and more reliable solar energy solutions.

Good . Affordable prices are required for better energy output
Why isn’t this being used to get additional power ?
Not recommended govt has to sell 15 billion units how will they sell if users use solar
Fuck the gov
Solar panel prices may have crashed but not the charges of private companies who are in the business of installing solar panels. Their rates remain as high as ever.
Despite solar energy and government’s claims that they have enough power, the long loadsheddings continue. Even today in my area in the capital, there was 10-hour loadshedding. Not only that the light went off two more times afterwards
The government needs to be taught a lesson.
The solar panel market may be crashed but a poor man can not afford it yet now. Inspite of announcing about solar market govt should seek measures for cheap and affordable grid electricity for an average man
Let our Chinese friends flourish by export of solar, as we need not produce anything in the country,else our friendship will fly to the sky from Himalia,or will dive deeper in the ocean. The importers and politicians also needs to survive a luxurious life over the artificial miseries of the poor consumers .
The solar panels purchased by govt in Pakistan have the lowest output,that is why sold at a discounted price,as these panels convert 3% to 4% power, from 100% sun radiations,while in China solar panels convert 28% power, from sun radiations.
