Summary

Pakistan’s energy economy is now as electrified as the global average, following a rapid solarisation that has transformed the country’s energy system in just two years, according to a new report , “The Solarisation of Pakistan’s energy economy,” from Ember and Renewables First.

The report makes the case that distributed solar actually helped to grow electricity demand.
