According to a recent news report, the country has an installed electricity capacity of 22,797 megawatts (MW), but production stands at a dismal 12,000 MW. In recent years, electricity demand has risen to 19,000 MW.

Bank Alfalah has been a strong proponent of renewable energy. The Bank has integrated environmental and sustainable development criteria into its lending and investment decision making processes, and has established deep relationships with many clients in the clean energy sector. Leveraging on its expertise in sustainable business, Bank Alfalah aims to develop renewable energy financing products and services to facilitate a reduction in the carbon footprint in Pakistan. It also plans to play a role in helpingimprove the solar industry’s access to capital to facilitate increase of distributed solar power in Pakistan.
