Participants confirmed strong demand and expressed willingness to shift to solar energy if tariffs remain lower than current utility rates.\u00a0 Estimates indicate that solar plants ranging from 5 MW to 50 MW can be viably integrated across estates. Participants were advised to engage stakeholders, identify scalable land parcels, and coordinate with District Administrations to support future expansion.<\/p><p>This effort supports the Energy Department\u2019s strategy to enable sustainable and cost-effective energy solutions for industrial growth in the province.<\/p><p>The meeting was ended with thanks from the Chair.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-318032b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"318032b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dd3a401 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"dd3a401\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"499\" src=\"https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0077-a-1024x499.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1467\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0077-a-1024x499.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0077-a-300x146.jpg 300w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0077-a-768x375.jpg 768w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0077-a-24x12.jpg 24w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0077-a-36x18.jpg 36w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0077-a-48x23.jpg 48w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0077-a.jpg 1376w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0fe403d e-grid e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"0fe403d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3232eec elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3232eec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"IMG-20250717-WA0080\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MTQ2OCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2VuZXJneS5iYWxvY2hpc3Rhbi5nb3YucGtcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcLzIwMjVcLzA3XC9JTUctMjAyNTA3MTctV0EwMDgwLmpwZyJ9\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1468\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080-24x18.jpg 24w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080-36x27.jpg 36w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080-48x36.jpg 48w, https:\/\/energy.balochistan.gov.pk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/IMG-20250717-WA0080.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Consultative Meeting on Solarization of Key Industrial Estates (17-07-2025) A meeting was held under chairmanship of Mr. Muhammad Dawood Bazai; Secretary Energy in the committee room at the Energy Department to discuss the solarization of key industrial estates in Balochistan.
