We divide your monthly electricity units (bill ÷ tariff rate) by Pakistan's average peak sun hours for your city. This gives the kW of solar panels needed to cover your usage — following NEPRA net-metering methodology.

On-Grid (cheaper) connects to your DISCO grid and exports surplus power via net metering, but shuts off during load-shedding for safety. Hybrid includes battery storage so your home stays powered 24/7 even during load-shedding.

Net metering lets you export excess solar power back to the grid during the day. Your DISCO credits those units against what you consume at night. This is how solar can cover ~85% of your electricity bill.

This calculation is based on current 2026 Pakistani market benchmarks (Rs 130k/kW on-grid, Rs 195k/kW hybrid, Rs 65/unit average tariff). Actual vendor quotes may vary slightly based on panel tier, inverter brand, and mounting structure.

Yes! Major commercial banks (Meezan, HBL, Bank Alfalah) offer Islamic solar financing packages for systems calculated here, covering up to 80-85% of total cost on 3 to 5 year easy monthly installments.
