CONFERENCE on Quaid-E-Azam Solar Park

LAHORE: The Quaid-i-Azam Solar Power Plant in Bahawalpur is producing 18.5 megawatts a day on average. This can electrify 54,000 households, Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif said on Friday.

Addressing a press conference, the chief minister compared the project with hydro and wind-power projects. “Those claiming that a 100-megawatt hydropower project can generate more electricity at the same cost are mistaken. Hydropower projects can only be set up at a limited scale in the Punjab,” Sharif said.
