CM Punjab Free Solar Scheme 2026: Eligibility & How to Apply Net Metering vs Net Billing & New Taxes

Pakistan Solar Policy 2026: Net Metering Ka Khatma Aur Net Billing Ka Aghaz – Punjab Muft Solar Scheme Aur Naye Taxes Ki Mukammal Tafseelat!

• Last Updated: March 2, 2026
• Regulatory Authority: NEPRA (National Electric Power Regulatory Authority)
• New System: Net Billing (Prosumer Regulations 2026)
• Buyback Rate: Approx. Rs. 11/unit

Pakistan mein bijli ke barhte hue qimaton ke darmiyan solar panels aik nijaat ka rasta thay, magar saal 2026 mein Government of Pakistan aur NEPRA ne solar policy mein inqilabi tabdeelyan mutarif karwa di hain. Agar aap naya solar lagane ka soch rahe hain ya pehle se laga chuke hain, to ye naye rules aap ke liye janna nihayat zaroori hain.

Humein tajziya karne par ye pata chala hai ke ab solar lagana sirf "Bachat" nahi balkay aik "Strategic Move" ban gaya hai.
1. Net Metering vs Net Billing: Bara Ulat Pher
NEPRA ne "Prosumer Regulations 2026" ke tehat purana Net Metering nizam khatam kar diya hai.

• A. Net Billing Kya Hai?
• Pehle Net Metering mein "Unit ke badle Unit" adjust hota tha (yani 100 unit diye aur 100 liye to bill zero). Magar naye Net Billing nizam mein:
• Buyback Rate Mein Kami: Hukumat aap se sasti bijli khareeday gi (Taqreeban Rs. 11 fi unit).
• Retail Price Par Farokht: Jab aap grid se bijli lenge, to aap ko poora retail rate (Rs. 25 se Rs. 55 tak) ada karna hoga.
• Profit Margin: Is ka matlab hai ke ab grid ko bijli bechna zyada munafa-bakhsh nahi raha.

2. Punjab Hukumat Ki Solar Schemes 2026
Chief Minister Punjab Maryam Nawaz ne ghareeb aur mutawassit tabqay ke liye aik bari relief scheme jari rakhi hai:

• CM Punjab Free Solar Scheme: * Target: Wo gharane jin ka mahana kharch 0 se 200 units hai.
• Quantity: Pehle phase mein 100,000 solar systems bilkul muft lagaye ja rahe hain.
• Roshan Gharana Program: 500 units tak istemal karne walon ke liye asan iqsaat (installments) par solar panels faraham kiye ja rahe hain.
• Solar Tubewell Scheme: Kisano ke liye interest-free solar tubewells ki saholat maujood hai taake ziraat ki laagat kam ho sake.

3. Naye Taxes Aur Qawaneen (Budget 2025-26)
Hukumat ne local manufacturing ko promote karne ke liye sakht iqdamat uthaye hain:

• 18% Sales Tax: Imported solar panels par 18% sales tax laagu kar diya gaya hai, jis se system ki shuruati qimat (upfront cost) barh gayi hai.
• Contract Muddat: Net metering muahiday ki muddat 7 saal se kam kar ke 5 saal kar di gayi hai.
• Capacity Limit: Ab aap apne "Sanctioned Load" (jitna meter ka load hai) se zyada ka solar system nahi laga sakte.

4. Hybrid Solar System: 2026 Ka Behtareen Mashwara
Humein lagta hai ke Net Billing ke naye mahol mein ab sirf Batteries wala (Hybrid) system hi faida-mand hai.

• Store Your Energy: Din mein paida hone wali bijli batteries mein store karein.
• Use at Night: Raat ko grid se mehngi bijli lene ke bajaye apni store ki hui bijli istemal karein.
• Minimize Grid Reliance: Grid ko bijli Rs. 11 mein bechne se behtar hai ke aap usay khud istemal kar ke Rs. 50 bachayein.

💡 Mashwara

• Net Billing ka nizam solar lagane walon ke liye thora sakht zaroori hai, magar bijli ke barhte rates ko dekhte hue solar ab bhi behtareen investment hai. Humein lagta hai ke agar aap naya system laga rahe hain, to Hybrid Inverter aur Lithium Batteries ko tarjeeh dein. Grid ko bijli Rs. 11 mein bechna ab aqal-mandi nahi rahi, apni bijli khud store kar ke raat ko istemal karna hi asal bachat hai!
