Pakistan has imported over 50 gigawatt (GW) worth of solar panels in the past five years at an estimated cost of nearly $18 billion, according to a recent study presented at the Karachi School of Business and Leadership (KSBL). The report highlights that this volume is equivalent to the country’s entire national grid capacity, reflecting a rapid shift toward distributed renewable energy. The study, conducted by Renewables First, notes that around 38 GW of imported solar capacity is already in use across Pakistan as of 2025, with households accounting for the largest share. While the solar boom has helped millions of users shield themselves from rising electricity costs and energy instability, it has also contributed to financial pressure on grid-dependent consumers due to rising capacity payments and circular debt. Experts warn that increasing adoption of solar and upcoming battery storage systems could further reduce reliance on the national grid, creating long-term structural challenges for energy planning unless financing gaps and policy reforms are addressed.
