Power Failure in Pakistan: Does Solar Help?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 вер 2024
- Pakistan has faced multiple national grid breakdowns in the past 2 years but no one is held accountable for it. This is no joke for a country with the 5th largest population in the world.
It seems our national institutions who we pay every month to prevent this have a non-serious attitude so what can we do in our individual capacities? I also discuss whether solar can help during events like these and how my system held up to 12+ hours of power outage.
Follow me on instagram where I shared more details about our day without electricity from the grid: / syedowaisali

Ma-Shaa-ALLAH ! ! ! SOLAR is the ONLY Solution. May ALLAH عزوجل Protect Our Nation & Our Country PAKISTAN from all Internal & External Enemies. Aameen ! ! ! May ALLAH guide all of us towards his path of TRUTH. Aameen ! ! ! TRUTH Lovers ko SALAM ! ! !
Ameen!
Mirza sb gi ..... solar koon afford ker saktta hay ab . 25 rs per watt walla panel 105 rs per watt hou chukka haaay .... ....

Yes, Our 4 kw Hybrid Solar system did helped a lot. In yesterday's outage, It supported uninterruptable supply for above 24hours without Grid power (Full usage of all household equipment's (220v) including Water Boring machine, Ironing, Washing machines etc in DAY timings & controlled usage [lights/few devices/fridge only] in NIGHT). indeed, Solar is blessing! *** Alhamdolillah ***
That is awesome! Alhamdulilah
so did ours
Same
Our Hybrid 12kw solar system saved us during this breakdown. We had electricity all day and in the evening we used our batteries
but the question is, were your batteries been charged by the grid supply? how do you know its through the solar plates?
Dear Owais Beta, AOA!
As always, great video. Hard facts. I have a 3kw hybrid inverter system in my home which served well. Electricity outage lasted from 0730 hrs to 2100 hrs.
But the Govt will always not support net metering because of the fact that cost of electricity which they charge keeps their wheel rotating. My small capacity system has more than halved my bills.
Thank you for the appreciation and sharing your experience
Aoa. Do you have hybrid system?
Yes. Nitrox SP 24V inverter.
Dear, im in the same shoes as you, I'm back from Canada after 14 years. I knew the challenges, especially electricity supply.
I have installed 12kw hybrid system a few months ago, and it did well in yesterday's power outage. I'm glad that I installed a hybrid system. The surplus power goes to the gird, and I see a credit in my monthly bills.
This power breakdown was a big scare for the IT industry. This is because all if not most software houses have offices in commercial areas or buildings where they cannot afford to have solar or a generator. Instead, we have to rely on the grid's power or the backup generator of a building (if they even have one). My question is how can the IT industry become power independant? Even if that was possible, the internet is another issue.
Agreed
Agreed 💯
IT Companies should shift to Buildings or Rental spaces which offer Solar Power and Back Generators to their Tenants.
Using Solar Power can be a big business enhancing opportunity. An IT Company can proudly mention in their Business Proposals to clients (letter head, website, Social Media etc.), that they use Renewable (Green Energy) for all their development work. Soon, there will be benefits given to companies who are using Green energy.
Many Textile companies who export to USA, EU countries have shifted to Solar, got themselves Certified as 100% Renewable Energy companies, and are reaping its benefits by enhancing their exports to Global Warming conscious Clients in EU, USA etc. Example is Interloop Limited.

Liking video in first 10 sec ☺️ coz you know Owais bhai ne quality content hi provide krna ha ❤️
Thank you 🫡
Please make a video on wind turbine too
I am thinking to install it for night use to avoid dependency on batteries but I will keep the batteries, am thinking to avoid Wapda as it's totally unpredictable.
Last night we were at so relief as we have 5kw off grid System with four tubular batteries.
I think 2022 gave a real boost to people with solar as their return on investment accelerated in that year alone due to increase in electricity prices (PKR 8 increment excluding GST!). I think the formula for calculation is number of units generated during the year X PKR 40 (inclusive of GST). My system in 2022 generated 15,500 kwh x 35 = ~550,000. Half cost recovery of system in 1st year!
MASHA ALLAH
Solar is blessing from almighty it definitely helps one to self relient.
I was thinking about your videos all the while the power was gone. Happy to see your upload. Even generators have failed now because fuel is substandard despite being crazy expensive. Solar is indeed the way to go now. My brand new laptop almost got destroyed due to power surge last year, but despite smoke coming out of its adapter the laptop survived. From security, power, water, gas, sewage, and so many other things one has to be self-sufficient now. I have a feeling that such nationwide outages will become longer and more frequent now. In crazy summer heat, it will become unbearable. Now even the elites are feeling the pinch. I hope everyone who is in power learns the right lessons out of the current crisis.

1). Owais bhai aapki solar videos se kafi help mili jis se men ne 31 Dec 22 ko 1 chota sa off grid solar system lgaya tha jis pr Alhamdulillah ghar ki sari lights and fans chalte hen
Kl blkl bhi ksi qism ki koi preshani nhi hoi
Blke light k jane ka bhi baad men pta lga
2). Men ne 1 fan starco ka lia he or 1 pak fan ka personally mjhe pak fan ka fan ziada acha lga q k starco men ziada design nhi hen or pak fan men 8 design x 2 colors hen to total 16 design choose kr skte hen baqi ir remote bhi expectations se kafi acha kaam kr rha he
Thank you for sharing your experience, glad you found the videos helpful
Thanks Owais for the awareness and sharing your experience with the solar power system, you've rightfully said that it's becoming a necessity rather than luxury. It's sad to see such circumstances occurring in our country.
Thanks for the video! Shifting my house to solar partially.
Agree with you we cannot plan any business in bannu due to 18 hours of load shedding
Owais Bhai
Such event occurs once in a blue moon and it happens in advance countries as well. I do agree with your stance of impediments being faced by common man to be independent of grid system.
I hear you brother! I was living the life in Middle East but moved to west and only reason for this decision was that don’t want to go back to Pakistan to deal with challenges which rest of the world resolved and get over multiple decades ago!!
Point is you will fight on how many fronts.
Allah Asani karay!
Absolutely Rite 👍
Love you brother...May Allah Pak protect u from everything that's bad for u nd for ur family...Allah-huma-ameen
How can we smuggle solar systems? Is py video bna dain.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Time to repaint the solar structure with red oxide. Get it yourself and do it. Will protect your structure.
Finally bought 6KW inverter and 10 550 w panels to start with , Solar panels price are down these days best time to buy and install same system would have costed me 4 lac more in summer 2023 couldn’t afford it so bought the system now 😅
Thanks awais your vlogs helped me a lot to decide 👍
Precisely. I can well understand your disappointment and that of millions incl myself. Such videos are very impt, keep it up and keep conveying the msg. Future planning is something we hardly think of unless the axe is on the head. Good luck
With the sincerity with which you are giving awareness to the people, you should make a solar installer company and install the solar system to the people at a reasonable price. I pray that Allah will make you successful.
How is electricity unit cost calculated in Pakistan and how we fund the grid. Watch this video to get a better understanding:
ua-cam.com/video/tZ0yEjiR6zU/v-deo.html
can you show your electricity bill on hybrid solar system i have heard that batteries consume more solar energy and send less to Wapda.
Owais bhi. Aap ki tubular battery life and performance and battery load management ki information share pls
What is actual life of tubular battery
Asalam o alaikum
Please make video on batteries too. Which companies are reliable
Thanks
Your videos are always informative and interesting. Thank you for making them.
Two things I noticed about your solar installation in the background, (1) the lightning rod is too low to give ANY protection and (2) the panels' angle is too low for both optimum generation and self-cleaning by rain.
If you want to discuss further, you can contact me through UA-cam reply or LinkedIn.
Best wishes
Nice update with critical analysis, good job 💕
Thank you
I think one of the biggest problems in public sector is sheer lack of quality. Whether products or services, we just cannot deliver quality. And we believe that public sector institutions are probably unable to match the quality of private sector. Secondly, as consumers we have just become complacent over time and do not even claim our right anymore.
As you mentioned in one of your earlier vlogs, in power distribution sector, there is no competition either unlike internet services where because of some competition due to private sector, consumer does get some kind of respite.
And rightly said, in a country where government cannot even ensure uninterrupted power in these times, nobody is gonna waste their time and investment to start an industry. A 12 hour unannounced power failure can cause a loss of millions if not billions to an export industry besides a reputation setback where the producer would be unable to deliver on promised products or services and lose returning business as a direct consequence.
Always learn something new from your research work.
Thank You
I run a big hostel....16k watt system is placed...light went early in the morning at 7am...solar panel worked for 8 hours without any issue...at 5pm the batteries were playing its role..for an hour batteries worked well but after that they went to zero as they couldnt hold the load of so many lights and laptops chargers at the hostel...after that gernaitor started working for only 3 hours...the light came at 12am😀...if the solars were not installed i might had so many problems...regarding buying fuel for gernaitor or it might hve stoped working for such huge breakdown...solars saved me...👍👍👍
Our 1.2kw solar did help alot. We have only 8 hours of grid power in Balochistan..
MASHA ALLAH
Your Vedios are great in helping families becoming self relient.
Please make a video on how to clean solar panels and what pressure washer to purchase. Thank you
Nice informative video. Great initiative by you to spread awareness. Jazakallah
But the problem is If someone wants to install solar system he cant. inverters are short right now due to import ban. AND popular inverters like Inverex or SolarMax are being sold at 6Lacs.
Make video on Solar finance from Banks. How to get a loan for system.
In your next video, please do answer this Question that for people in Quetta, where nights are very cold, is it Ok to have a hybrid system? Can we rely fully on Hybrid system to heat up the rooms at night if there is no electricity for whole night?

I have 4kw with hybrid inverter without batteries. I want to know if I add battery will the system be running normal during day during power break down.
hybrid is the best option ...if you want to install solar system... On grid system have many many disadvantages especially in Pakistan... Grid off mean your home electricity off...No back up... Nepra amendments for Calculating Units and its amounts😟😟😟😟
I am from a village in Sindh we have installed 3 Kv soler at that exact day we were able to use Water Pump Fridge and we didn't feel there is a power breakdown Alhumdullah
PS ROI is not important peace of mind is everything.
Badly needed this video
Owais bhai please work on Electric Car analysis in a video. To become more effectively use Solar we require Electric Car instead of using Gasoline.
It is the obligatory duty of our government institutions to make the life of citizens miserable and then earning from them.
Owais bhai agar cantt mein shift ho jayen to? wahan bhi bijli nahi jati
Instead of getting small hybrid system I got 15kw ongrid system with 12kw plates
Already have ups with big battery
Informative
Quetta bhee usy country ka hissa hai syed shb
Happy to see your system
dear sir will you please tell solar angle of your solar panels?. i think your solar angle is not ok.
Owais Bhai kindly let us know of best current AC. I was going to buy Kenwood but then I saw your follow up video on Kenwood. What other AC you would recommend?

Add batteries to your system, its only going to get worse.
@@khibulls yes electricity is really irritating now on off on off on off within 10 minutes
always quality content we as pakistani need more and more videos from you . thank you
I will try my best
Same happened year back you didn't posted any specific reason for posting this time
zero export device pr b video bnaye
Is there any bank which offer solar system on instalment.
Pls some guide me
Generals ney america ki khater pakistan ko toobah kar dia ,bijli, courts, etc.
Experts believe the batteries are also going to be extinct due to heavy dependence on expensive Elements. Therefore, it can not be said with certainty that the future is Electric the way we see it today.
How do you cook without gas?
Bro takreeban 15 se 20 din ho gay Green Meter M&T ko jama karwaye huye..
kab tk install ho jaye ge???
Ajaye ga. It takes time
Brother I want solar system to be installed to run my 1.5 ton AC. Kindly intimate how much cost need it to pay me.
Please give us information about best companies to install solar system
With providing best solar technology
I'm gonna start saving for the whole year and get equipment and panels 1 by 1 in a span of a year. Time to stop trusting Pakistani government for anything.
can you just live on solar power....no power from power company IESCO?
Tier 1 Solar panels are heading towards PKR 100/watt only solar panels, Exactly Prices double hoo gai hain balky double se b ooper chala gaya h kam.
Jab aap ne lagwaya tab andazan 100 rupees per watt complete system hooga jis me inverter batteries wagera Sub shamil hoongy or ab sirf solar panel 100 per watt par ja raha h😐
Yes unfortunately 🥲
i survived by using an Electricity generator. but what if this outrage period goes long. must find an alternative source of energy.
Having second thoughts about moving Pakistan
so your solar panels were generating 30w only during cloudy weather as on the display panel of the inverter?
Cloudy weather + 4:37 in winters. Its almost near to sunset
Aoa Owais which company should I look for solar, any recommendations Sir?
can anyone give me clear good answer???
I have local pure sine ups .. neautral is common with the wapda neautral in home wiring.. In this case wapda meter is counting units???Rumor is circulating in our society...but in my opinion This is the impossible circuit because Neautral and phase should be come from same source to operate And run Loads... Many solar installers like Aj electric saying this k kai sare ups apni neautral nhi bnate or wapda k neutral use krte hn yr ye kya logic hoi?????
Short term and makeshift solutions.
I have 10kw hybrid installed in Aug 2022. Alhumdulliah bill is -15000/- last month.
Pls tell total cost of setting it.
And which company do you get installed with it
@@whiteholeeducationcenter cost me with everything in around 18 Lac. I am an electrical engineer myself I used best possible panels, inverter, galvanized structure and cables. I installed it from a company named sun global.

Thank you
Aoa, nice and informative video.
If you help me buy 5 or 10 kw hybrid solar inverter from Dubai. I m now in Dubai, which inverter is best for Pakistan. Thanks
Owais what are your recommendations for inverter ACs in 2023?
ایک شخص نے انفراسٹرکچر پر کام کرنا چاہا اس کا کیا حشر نشر کیا گیا۔کہا گیا کہ سارا چکر کمیشن کھانے کا ہے۔ اس کو ایسا سبق سکھایا کہ آئیندہ کوئ سوچے بھی نہیں
Owais, Please try to make information video on CCTVs at home
Thanks for your neutral and informative videos on solar system.
With your videos assistance i have installed 8.7 kva on grid system at my home in September 22, But at the same time i have UPS backup which was previously installed. Anyway UPS helped me in evening / night on 23 Jan 2023 breakout.
Except cooking every energy need is shifted on electricity and in four month my electricity bill is negative 24k.
Once again Jazakallah Khair for your kind effort.
That is awesome! MashaAllah
Why you left abroad and come back to Pakistan why why brother @syed owais ali
Waiting for the bill review
Solar didn't help coz I have on grid solar system
Get hybrid

This is reported in AP Newspaper:
"As an economic measure, we temporarily shut down our power generation systems” Sunday night, Dastgir said. When engineers tried to turn the systems back on, a “fluctuation in voltage” was observed, which “forced engineers to shut down the power grid” stations one by one."
These are 30+ years experienced minds imposed upon us...
This is normal procedure every winter as explained in Part 5. It has nothing to do with politics but rather our incompetent institutions. The same thing happened when previous government was in power in January 2021i

Great as always. Are you planing to opt for a single hybrid invertor with your expansion of solar panels?
Nope. There are advantages to having multiple. If one breaks down, there are others doing the job. Might add a third one once I can afford it… maybe after a year
@@syedowaisali Ok. Great.
Poora nizam hi corrupt hogaya hai. Thanks to boots.
Unbelievable how long will they will fool the fool people of Pakistan?
Ultimately grid will trip due to frequency shifting or overload but why that happened no one will tell the truth. (most likely deliberately lowering the speed of generating equipment)
Shah sahib what types of batteries you’re using ?
Tall tublar
Never mind you answered that @ 14:44.
To expend question of punishment for persons created this fantastic debacle you know better this concept of accountability is long gone from our luckless poor society. So at the end nothing will happen.
It infuriate me when long ago once someone said to me “ Pakistan sirf tootnay aour lootneay kay liyay bana hai “
Sadly now i agree with that.

Are you financial expert also ?

Best option for Pakistan, solar power.
portrayed well as usual. I would really appreciate it if you list down some reliable solar vendors who can quote us according to our demand? Thanks
