Chaudhry Fawad Hussain, the Federal Minister of Science and Technology, has revealed that Pakistan would initiate the indigenous production of solar energy panels within a year and a half.
In an interview with a local media outlet, the Federal Minister Science and Technology said:
“We will be able to transform free solar power to the batteries. With the rapid technological change, each residential unit will have its separate domestic powerhouse and size of the battery will reduce with its enhanced power.”
Currently, one-time chargeable 1 million-mile batteries are in the production cycle for electric vehicles aimed at replacing the petrol vehicles in the country in the future.
The Federal Minister also added that on the direction of Prime Minister Imran Khan, the Ministry of Science and Technology is planning to set up 400 science and technology schools all over Pakistan, out of which 40 of the schools will be established in major cities.
He further added that 66% of Pakistan’s annual health budget is utilized in treating water-borne diseases. Therefore, the Pakistan Council of Research in Water Resources (PCRWR) has decided to share its data with the public to enable the construction of new water filtration plants through a data-driven approach.
