PM Shehbaz Sharif Launches National Solar Energy Plan 2025
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif launches Pakistan’s National Solar Energy Plan to reduce power costs and promote clean energy.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced the launch of Pakistan’s National Solar Energy Plan 2025, aimed at cutting electricity costs and reducing dependency on imported fuels.
The project includes the installation of 10,000 megawatts of solar power across major cities, replacing expensive thermal generation units. The government will provide subsidies for home-based solar panels and net-metering systems.
Shehbaz Sharif said, “This is Pakistan’s step toward a green and sustainable energy future.” The plan also supports local solar equipment manufacturing and foreign investment partnerships.
Energy experts believe the project could save billions in fuel imports annually while reducing load-shedding. Implementation will begin in early 2026 under the supervision of the Ministry of Energy.
