Solar power is a clean energy source that can be relied on for the long-term future. Our commitment is to make our environment clean and green.

Why us?

Our business model is to invest in solar rooftop/ground mounted power plants at Commercial and Industrial sites, and run them for 20-25 years – selling electricity to the site at a discount to the grid.

This model removes any CAPEX responsibility, Operations & Maintenance expense, and risk to the site owner associated with equipment or solar irradiation.

Our business model allows our customers to book financial savings from day 1 as our solar tariff is lower than their current cost of grid.

This approach gives our customers the benefit of claiming carbon emission reductions from their operations, without having to make any investments

The group has successfully financed over 60MW of solar powerplants on PPA model, with the help of strong financials of the sponsor companies.

The sponsors also own and operate over 400MW of Thermal and Solar IPPs in Pakistan.

Shams Power is run by experts in the power sector, having experience of setting up over 4,000MW of power generation in the last 17 years in Pakistan.

Shams Power is the 1st company in Pakistan with a Distributed Solar Generation License from NEPRA, which is the LEGAL way to sell electricity.
