Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has launched the ‘Roshan Gharana Program,’ a major initiative to foster sustainable energy usage across the province. This program is designed to equip 50,000 homes in Punjab with comprehensive solar systems, marking a pivotal shift towards renewable energy.
Program Details:
The Roshan Gharana Program, with a budget of Rs 12.6 billion, aims to install solar systems in 50,000 homes. Initially targeting households that consume up to 100 units of electricity monthly, the program will select recipients through a lottery. The provided solar setup includes high-quality solar panels, inverters, and batteries.
Registration and Financing:

Beneficiaries can opt for installment plans spread over 3 to 25 years, covering up to 85% of costs for new purchases and constructions, and up to 30% for renovations.
