Solar Generation in Rawalpindi – How Many Units Will You Produce?
Rawalpindi receives an average of 4.8–5.2 peak sun hours per day. Rawalpindi shares similar solar irradiance with Islamabad, but its denser urban environment and heavier traffic pollution means slightly more dust on panels — clean panels monthly for optimal performance. Here is what you can expect from a rooftop solar system in Rawalpindi:
| System Size | Monthly Generation (kWh) | Summer Peak | Winter Low |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3kW | 432–468 units | +15% | -20% |
| 5kW | 720–780 units | +15% | -20% |
| 8kW | 1,152–1,248 units | +15% | -20% |
| 10kW | 1,440–1,560 units | +15% | -20% |
IESCO (Islamabad Electric Supply Company) – Your Electricity Provider in Rawalpindi
Electricity in Rawalpindi is supplied by IESCO (Islamabad Electric Supply Company). Rawalpindi falls under IESCO’s coverage area along with Islamabad. Rawalpindi’s older urban areas (Saddar, Rawal Town, Pirwadhai) can experience significantly more load shedding than Islamabad’s planned sectors — making hybrid solar systems more valuable here than in the capital.
Net Metering in Rawalpindi – IESCO (Islamabad Electric Supply Company)
Net metering allows you to export surplus solar electricity back to the grid and receive credits on your bill — potentially reducing it to near zero. Here is how to apply in Rawalpindi:
- Install a NEPRA-approved solar system through a licensed installer
- Apply through the NEPRA net metering portal (or through your installer)
- IESCO (Islamabad Electric Supply Company) inspects your installation and approves the connection
- A bi-directional import/export meter is installed (cost: Rs. 60,000–Rs. 85,000 typically)
- You begin exporting surplus energy and earning credits at the FiT rate
Net metering in Rawalpindi follows the same IESCO process as Islamabad. Current processing time is 1–3 months. Many Rawalpindi installers have established relationships with IESCO for faster application processing.

Is Solar Worth It in Rawalpindi in 2026?
Rawalpindi’s older residential areas face more load shedding than Islamabad’s planned sectors, making hybrid solar systems particularly valuable here. Areas like Satellite Town, Bahria Town Phase 1–4, and DHA Rawalpindi have seen rapid solar adoption. The proximity to Raja Bazaar wholesale market also means good post-installation support and spare parts availability.
A typical 5kW on-grid system in Rawalpindi costs Rs. 420,000–Rs. 540,000 and saves approximately Rs. 36,000–39,000 per month — giving a payback period of roughly 18–26 months. After payback, you generate essentially free electricity for the remaining 15–20 years of your panels’ life.
Solar System Recommendations by House Size in Rawalpindi
- 1–2 bedroom flat (1 AC, bill Rs. 8,000–15,000): 3kW–5kW hybrid system — total Rs. 490,000–Rs. 600,000
- 3–4 bedroom house (2 ACs, bill Rs. 15,000–30,000): 6kW–8kW hybrid system — total Rs. 780,000–Rs. 1,200,000
