K-Electric’s Power Generation Costs 200 pc Above National Average https://lnkd.in/dfvXNCfc K-Electric’s electricity generation costs are significantly higher than the national average, reaching over Rs. 58 per unit in June, a 200% increase compared to the national average of Rs. 26.80 per unit. This discrepancy includes costs of Rs. 58.10 per unit for diesel and Rs. 41.80 per unit for furnace oil, with LNG and gas costing Rs. 38.10 and Rs. 8.80 per unit respectively. The inflated power generation costs have exacerbated the financial strain on Karachi’s residents, who are already grappling with high electricity bills. The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) has confirmed instances of overbilling by all power […]

#Solar_Panel_Prices in #Pakistan Drop Amid #Global_Lithium Price Decline, But Consumers Demand Fairer Rates The prices of solar panels in Pakistan have seen a notable decrease, with costs per watt now ranging between PKR 30 and PKR 32, according to dealers in Karachi. This price reduction follows a significant 50% drop in global lithium battery prices over the past year. However, #Pakistani_importers have faced criticism for not fully passing these savings on to consumers, sparking calls for greater transparency and fairer pricing to make solar energy more accessible. This trend marks a continued decline in solar panel costs in the country, signaling growing adoption of renewable energy.

Ensuring the safety of solar power systems is of paramount importance, and the key to achieving this is by selecting high-quality photovoltaic modules and cables. Faults in solar power systems can lead to significant fire hazards and financial loss, with DC arcs being the most prevalent risk factor. Using substandard materials can lead to poor connections, insulation degradation, and damp insulation, all of which can cause electrical faults. Recent incidents, such as the loss of 2 million worth of inverter in Ilorin Kwara State , Nigeria, due to the use of fake or low-quality DC breaker sold at almost the price of original equivalent, highlight the need for regulatory bodies to enforce stringent quality standards and monitor the market for counterfeit products. By investing in quality components and advocating for regulatory oversight, stakeholders can collectively mitigate the threat of fire hazards in solar power systems, fostering a safer and more sustainable energy landscape. Let's prioritize superior materials and mitigate the risk of fire hazards in solar power systems. #solarpower #sustainability #renewableenergy #qualitymaterials #regulatoryoversight

𝐁𝐞𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐞𝐢𝐭 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐬 With rising electricity costs, the demand for solar panels in Pakistan is increasing. However, the market is now threatened by an influx of substandard and counterfeit panels, often disguised as premium products. These low-quality panels not only deceive consumers but also harm the reputation of trusted solar brands. As Pakistan aims to source 30% of its power from renewable energy by 2030, it's important to ensure that consumers purchase authentic, A-category panels, which come with a 25-year warranty. In contrast, B and C-category panels are defective, unreliable, and lack efficiency, leading to poor performance and wasted investments. Experts like Mr. Ammar Nasim, CEO of 𝐄𝐜𝐨 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐄𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 urges consumers to buy solar panels from authorized dealers and PPIB-registered companies to avoid these counterfeit products. Leading solar technology provider, has implemented strict quality control measures, but many buyers still fall prey to unethical traders selling subpar products. Awareness is necassary to ensure that both consumers and the solar industry grow. #SolarIndustry #CounterfeitPanels #RenewableEnergy #ConsumerProtection #EcoCartEnergy #SustainableEnergy #CleanEnergy

Gujarat Electricity Regulatory Commission Approves MPSEZ Utilities’ 1,100 MW Power Procurement The Gujarat Electricity Regulatory Commission recently heard a petition filed by MPSEZ Utilities Ltd. (MUL). The petition sought approval for the adoption of a tariff discovered through a competitive bidding process for the procurement of 1,100 MW of power. This procurement was aimed at ensuring a reliable power supply to consumers in the Mundra area of Gujarat, which is the area MUL serves as a distribution licensee. To meet the increasing demand for electricity in its license area, MUL proposed purchasing this power under a long-term agreement. This agreement involved a partnership on a “Design, Build, Finance, Own, and Operate” […] Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/dEfXPpZf #solarenergy #alternativeenergy #solarpv #pvsolar #photovoltaic #cleanenergy #cleantech #climatechange #gerc #gujarat #mul #petition #regulatoryaffairs

"Why Industries Can't Afford to Ignore the PV Genset Controller" Without a PV Genset Controller, your operations could face serious challenges that impact both your bottom line and efficiency. Industries that rely on solar and generator power are missing out on key benefits by not integrating this solution. Here are the major drawbacks of running systems without the PV Genset Controller: Increased Fuel Consumption: Without proper synchronization, your generators burn more fuel, leading to higher operational costs. Lower Energy Efficiency: A lack of coordinated power management means energy is wasted, reducing overall efficiency. Frequent Power Interruptions: Unsynchronized power sources result in unexpected outages and downtime, affecting productivity. Higher Environmental Impact: More fuel usage means higher emissions, which adds to your carbon footprint and environmental impact. Don’t let inefficiencies hold your business back! Contact Energy Live today to discover how our PV Genset Controller can streamline your energy management, reduce costs, and improve your system’s reliability.
