Solar panel prices in Pakistan drop by half 

According to media reports, the price of a 70,000-watt solar panel has dropped to 30,000 rupees.

According to economic experts, the constant decrease in prices due to higher demand and the use of cost-effective materials in solar panel production are key reasons for this reduction. Unlike other commodities, the demand for solar panels often results in lower prices making them more accessible.

One contributing factor to the affordability of solar panels is the use of photovoltaic cells in manufacturing along with improved packaging techniques. This ensures better protection during transportation and contributes to cost savings. Additionally, the use of thinner glass, slender frames, and larger modules has further driven down production costs.

Experts in economics emphasize that while the demand for renewable energy solutions continues to grow, the reduction in solar panel prices is a positive trend in line with global efforts to transition towards cleaner and sustainable energy sources.

This decrease in prices not only makes solar panels more economically viable for individual consumers but also holds promise for large-scale renewable energy projects in Pakistan. The economic benefits of adopting solar energy are expected to be felt across various sectors paving the way for a greener and more sustainable future for the nation.

As Pakistan embraces this shift towards affordable solar energy, it positions itself as a key player in the global push towards cleaner and more sustainable energy alternatives. The simultaneous focus on cost-effective materials and advanced manufacturing techniques is likely to propel the country further into a future powered by renewable resources.
