In 2025, Pakistan has made impressive progress in clean energy by generating 25% of its utility-supplied electricity from solar power. This means that one-fourth of the electricity supplied through the national grid now comes from the sun.
With this achievement, Pakistan has joined a small group of fewer than 20 countries in the world where solar power provides at least 25% of the monthly electricity supply.
This growth in solar energy is not only significant it’s much faster than the global average. In fact, solar power generation in Pakistan has increased more than three times quicker than in most other countries this year. A major reason for this progress is the large-scale import of solar equipment and panels that started picking up pace in 2022.
Thanks to these developments, solar power has now become the largest source of electricity in the country. This marks a major shift in how Pakistan is choosing to meet its energy needs, moving away from fossil fuels and focusing more on cleaner, greener sources.
Experts see this as a big win for the environment and the economy. Solar energy not only helps reduce pollution but also lowers power costs in the long run. It also makes Pakistan less dependent on imported fuels, which can be expensive and unstable in price.
Pakistan’s success in solar power shows the world that clean energy is possible and necessary for a better future. The country’s bold steps today could lead to even greater energy independence and sustainability tomorrow.
