Sep 16, 2026 - How Pakistan`s Power Crisis Sparked A People-Driven Solar Revolution



Energy supply disruptions due to the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz have resulted in skyrocketing electricity prices and supply disruptions across Pakistan. Countrywide power shortfall has reached 4,500 megawatts - enough power to light up 4 million homes. It costs more than USD 4 billion dollars annually to the economy.
But a citizen-ran solar revolution in bridging the gap, helping power industries, farms and homes across Pakistan. We meet activists, scientists and experts to understand how solar power became Pakistan`s single largest source of electricity, accounting for more than 25 percent of total production in 2025 — ahead of gas, coal, hydro, and nuclear and if the dividends of this revolution are reaching all segments of Pakistan`s society.
