What is the difference between On-Grid and Hybrid solar systems in Pakistan?

On-Grid systems connect directly to your DISCO grid via a bi-directional Green Meter, providing maximum ROI by exporting surplus units back to the grid. Hybrid systems add LiFePO4 lithium batteries to provide seamless power backup during grid load shedding.

Which solar panels and inverters does electric.com.pk install?

We strictly install Tier-1 Bloomberg-listed N-Type TOPCon panels (Longi Hi-MO X6, Jinko Tiger Neo, Canadian Solar) paired with high-efficiency European standard inverters (Huawei, Sungrow, Solis, Knox, Deye).

How much rooftop area is required per kW of solar?

Flat concrete rooftops require approximately 90 sq. ft. per kW (for elevated galvanized structures to avoid shadow casting). Slanted metallic roofs require ~75 sq. ft./kW, and tile roofs require ~85 sq. ft./kW.

How is the return on investment (ROI) and payback period calculated?

Based on current 2024–2026 Pakistani electricity tariffs (PKR 56–62/unit), a standard 10kW On-Grid system saves approximately PKR 75,000–88,000 monthly, achieving a full payback within 2.2 to 2.8 years.

4-Step Installation Workflow

1. Audit & CAD Design

Engineer visits site, conducts drone/roof measurement, and produces a 3D CAD shadow analysis.

2. In-House Installation

Uniformed installation crew mounts customized galvanized racking, runs IEC DC cabling, and terminates inverters.

3. Testing & SOP Checklist

String voltage testing, earthing resistance audit (<5 ohms), and full SOP safety sign-off before energization.

4. Net-Metering Approval

We handle complete DISCO filing, AEDB paperwork, testing inspection, and bi-directional Green Meter installation.
