ISLAMABAD: Like Pakistan one of most vulnerable countries to adverse effects of climate change, China leading solar solution provider LONGi has been committed to the development of the photovoltaic industry for a long time. with local energy infrastructure optimization partners in Pakistan.
We signed a Memorandum of Understanding with government of Pakistan in July 2019 to invest in design of 50 MW solar power plant in Bahawalpur, Punjab, like ours first steps said Ali Majid, CEO of LONGi Solar in Pakistan. in exclusive interview.
“How for V current total production capacity of Invested in LONGi projects in the field of green energy in Pakistan, total deliveries to Pakistan market will reach about 1 GW year. experience of development market in V past several years tell me that in to increase PV and new energy field, investment and awareness, nothing can do without withMajid added.
Pakistan should encourage more attachments in renewable energy infrastructure to the greatest extent, including government And private investments in Large solar farms as well as small rooftop solar installations, according to CEN. on Friday.
“How for awareness, strengthening education around the benefits of green energy, for example public educational campaigns and work with businesses, communities and schools,” said Majid.
“In addition, we can increase investment in research And development of new PV technologies such as efficiency improvements and performance of solar panels, as well as the development new materials and production processes.
“Currently, there is a conflict between global energy supply and demand caused geopolitical conflicts to great degree, which is called first real global energy crisis” of the International Energy Agency (IEA), is becoming more and more visible. To alleviate the contradiction, global photovoltaic market flourishes. like a major demand market in China year-on-year growth rate of about 59%. According to demand forecast of major consulting agencies are estimated to new installed capacity of photovoltaics in V world The capacity is expected to exceed 350 GW. in 2023, emphasized Alex Li, CEO of Central Asian branch of LONGi.
Known to be high cost brought great challenges To global a joint response to the energy crisis.
For example, in vast areas of desertification in Near East, main issue it’s a disadvantage of fresh water. Ascending in desalination costs of sea water is main let. If there is enough fresh water, large-scale greening will not be difficult,” says Alex Lee, which is why photovoltaic technology is of epoch-making importance.
“Photovoltaics can indeed change the ecology of our earth because solar energy does not depend on any resources and the sun is shining on everything is fair,” Alex Lee looked forward To future.
“How to turn sunlight into energy that benefits everyone is goal we always strive for”.
This year celebrates 10th anniversary of the One Belt, One Road initiative, as well as the 10th anniversary of launch of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.
Majid stated that CPEC Phase II is expected to focus on on V development of new technologies, such as energy storage systems and smart grids, to improve efficiency and reliability. of energy sector.
New energy ventures, including LONGi, are likely to play A key role in promoting the adoption of Renewable energy in Pakistan, even all of South Asia region.
