LESCO tariffs are at PKR 44 per unit and still rising. A correctly sized solar system in Lahore pays for itself in 3 to 5 years and runs for 25. The decision is not whether solar makes financial sense anymore it is which system type fits your consumption, your roof, and your budget. GharFix handles the full solar panel installation process free site survey, system design, Tier-1 panel mounting, inverter setup, wiring, and post-installation support across DHA, Bahria Town, Gulberg, Johar Town, and all major Lahore areas.

Connected to the LESCO grid no battery storage. The most affordable system type. Your solar panels power your home during the day, and the grid takes over at night or on cloudy days. Net metering allows excess daytime generation to offset your bill. A 5kW on-grid system in Lahore currently starts from PKR 650,000 to 780,000 depending on panel brand and inverter choice.
Grid-connected with battery backup the most popular choice for Lahore homes in 2025. Powers your home from solar during the day, charges batteries for use during load shedding, and draws from the grid only when both solar and battery are depleted. A 5kW hybrid system currently ranges from PKR 900,000 to 1,150,000 including batteries. Best balance of savings and load shedding protection.
Completely independent of LESCO runs entirely on solar and battery storage. Higher upfront cost due to larger battery bank requirement. Best suited for areas with very unreliable grid supply or properties where LESCO connection is not practical. Less common in urban Lahore but increasingly relevant in surrounding areas with severe supply issues.
Suitable for smaller homes or apartments with monthly bills in the PKR 8,000 to 15,000 range. Typically 6 to 8 panels covering 150 to 200 square feet of roof space. A 3kW on-grid system currently costs between PKR 400,000 and 550,000. A 3kW hybrid with battery backup ranges from PKR 600,000 to 750,000.
The most commonly installed system size for standard Lahore homes suitable for monthly bills between PKR 15,000 and 35,000. Typically 10 to 12 panels. A 5kW on-grid system runs PKR 650,000 to 780,000. A 5kW hybrid system with battery backup ranges from PKR 900,000 to 1,150,000 depending on inverter and battery brand.
For larger homes, offices, or businesses with monthly bills above PKR 40,000. Typically 18 to 22 panels requiring 400 to 500 square feet of usable roof space. A 10kW on-grid system costs PKR 1,050,000 to 1,250,000. A 10kW hybrid system ranges from PKR 1,400,000 to 1,800,000 depending on battery capacity and inverter specification.
A solar panel installation is not just about putting panels on a roof. Every component from the mounting structure to the earthing system affects how the system performs over 25 years. Here is what a complete GharFix installation covers.
A GharFix solar engineer visits your property assessing usable roof area, shading from adjacent structures, roof load capacity, existing wiring, and your monthly electricity consumption pattern. System size, panel layout, inverter specification, and estimated annual generation are all calculated before a quote is provided. No phone estimates for solar installations.
Galvanized or aluminium mounting structures fixed to the roof with load-rated anchoring engineered for Lahore’s wind load and rain conditions. Panel tilt angle optimized for Lahore’s latitude (31.5°N) to maximize annual energy yield. Flat roof, pitched roof, and shade-structure mounting all handled.
GharFix installs panels from Tier-1 manufacturers Jinko Solar, Canadian Solar, Longi, JA Solar, and Risen. Tier-1 classification means the manufacturer is bankable, the panels carry a 25-year linear performance warranty, and degradation rates are verified. Not all panels sold in Lahore’s market meet this standard we use panels that do.
Inverter mounted, DC and AC wiring connected, and system parameters configured for LESCO grid compatibility. Inverter brands installed include Growatt, Solis, Huawei, Deye, Goodwe, and SMA selected based on system size, type, and budget. All inverters carry manufacturer warranty and are LESCO-compatible for net metering.
DC cabling from panels to inverter run in UV-resistant conduit. AC wiring from inverter to DB panel installed to LESCO wiring standards. System earthing installed and tested. DC combiner box, surge protection devices, and DC breakers installed as part of the complete protection package.
Full system commissioned under load generation output measured, inverter display verified, monitoring app configured where applicable, and shading analysis confirmed against pre-installation assessment. System handed over with a performance walkthrough before our team leaves.
Not sure which combination suits your roof and budget? Our solar engineer explains the tradeoffs clearly during the free site survey no brand pushed for margin reasons.
There is no shortage of solar companies in Lahore. The difference between them shows up 12 months after installation in system output, in who answers the support call, and in whether the mounting holds through monsoon season.
We size your system on your actual consumption and daytime load profile not the largest system we can sell you. An oversized system costs more upfront and, under Pakistan's current net metering policy where buyback rates are under review, may deliver lower returns than a correctly sized one. Our engineer shows you the math during the site survey.
Lahore's solar market has a documented problem with substandard panels sold under Tier-1 brand names without verification. GharFix installs panels from manufacturers with independently verified Tier-1 bankability ratings with datasheets and warranty documents provided at handover.
Every GharFix solar installation is carried out by our own verified technicians not handed to a subcontractor after the sale. The same team that surveys your roof installs your panels and commissions the system. Accountability for the result stays with us.
Every GharFix solar installation comes with a 30-day service warranty on our workmanship. Panel and inverter manufacturer warranties apply additionally per their respective terms. If any fault traced to our installation appears within 30 days, we return and resolve it at no additional charge.

Solar panel installation cost in Lahore depends on system size and type. A 3kW on-grid system starts from PKR 400,000. A 5kW on-grid system runs PKR 650,000 to 780,000. A 5kW hybrid system with battery backup ranges from PKR 900,000 to 1,150,000. A 10kW hybrid system costs PKR 1,400,000 to 1,800,000. As of 2025, solar equipment is GST-exempt in Pakistan a significant saving compared to prior years. GharFix provides exact quotes after a free site survey.
The number of panels depends on your monthly electricity consumption and the system capacity needed. A 5kW system typically uses 10 to 12 panels (450–550 watt each). A 10kW system uses 18 to 22 panels. For an accurate panel count and roof layout, a site survey is essential usable roof space, shading from adjacent structures, and orientation all affect the final design.
For most Lahore homeowners in 2025, a hybrid system offers the better overall return grid savings during the day plus battery backup during load shedding, which is still a daily reality in most Lahore areas. On-grid systems are more affordable upfront and still deliver strong savings, but provide no backup during outages. If load shedding is manageable in your area, on-grid is a sensible starting point.
A residential solar installation 3kW to 5kW typically takes 2 to 3 days on-site after materials arrive. A 10kW system takes 3 to 5 days. The full timeline from site survey to commissioned system is typically 7 to 14 working days, depending on material availability and roof conditions. GharFix provides a confirmed installation schedule as part of the written quote.
A correctly sized solar system in Lahore can reduce electricity bills by 60 to 90% depending on your daytime consumption pattern and system size. With LESCO tariffs at PKR 44 per unit, a 5kW system generating an average of 20 to 25 units per day saves PKR 26,000 to 33,000 monthly at current rates. Most residential systems in Lahore achieve full payback in 3 to 5 years.
Yes — solar panels generate electricity from diffused light, not direct sunlight only. Output drops by 40 to 70% on heavily overcast days but does not stop entirely. Lahore's monsoon season (July to September) reduces generation significantly for 2 to 3 months, but the city's 8 to 9 peak sun hours during the remaining months more than compensate annually. A properly sized system accounts for seasonal variation in its yield calculations.
