'Solar policy to ensure fairness for all consumers'

Minister for Power Awais Ahmed Khan Leghari has said the notion that the government is against solarisation is completely false, and that it fully supports solarisation, but in a manner that is just for all consumers and does not unfairly burden non-solar consumers.

In a statement, the minister said though, solar power makes up for fossil fuel generated power, however, that is only during solar hours of the day.

During the night time, stable/dispatchable sources of power generation are mandatory for the power grid to remain stable and cater for the dynamically changing load conditions.
