Maryam Nawaz Launches Solarisation Project for Agricultural Tube Wells
Maryam Nawaz, prominent political leader and former federal minister, has launched a pioneering solarisation project aimed at powering agricultural tube wells with renewable energy. The initiative is expected to reduce farmers’ reliance on conventional electricity and fuel, lowering operational costs while promoting sustainable agriculture.
During the launch event, Maryam Nawaz highlighted that the project aligns with Pakistan’s broader energy transition goals, offering both economic and environmental benefits. She emphasized that empowering farmers with affordable and clean energy solutions is critical to enhancing productivity and ensuring food security.
The project will initially target high-demand agricultural regions, with plans to expand nationwide based on success and community feedback. Officials noted that the solarisation of tube wells can significantly reduce carbon emissions, promote efficient water management, and increase crop yields by ensuring uninterrupted water supply.
Agriculture experts praised the initiative as a model for integrating renewable energy into traditional farming practices. They also called for complementary support programs, including technical training and maintenance assistance, to ensure long-term sustainability.
