Faisalabad solar estimate at a glance
This shared model uses 5.4 peak-sun hours per day, a 75% performance ratio, 55% direct self-consumption, Rs. 60/unit retail value, and Rs. 8.13/unit export credit. These are illustrative assumptions, not an official flat FESCO tariff. Enter the actual units from your bill, then ask your installer to recalculate savings using your agreement rates and measured daytime load.

Local sizing notes
What changes in Faisalabad
Faisalabad uses a 5.4 peak-sun-hour default. For a textile unit, workshop or shop, a monthly bill cannot show whether machinery operates while solar is available. Record shifts, shutdown days and daytime base load before assuming the residential self-consumption percentage fits a commercial site.
Factories and large houses may have enough roof area, but dust, smoke, and heat can reduce output. Plan cleaning access and inverter ventilation before installation.

Net billing
FESCO savings logic
FESCO users with daytime machinery, office, shop, or cooling loads can often use more solar directly instead of exporting surplus at a lower credit.
The calculator separates direct savings from export credit because imported units and exported units have different cash values. This is why two Faisalabad homes with the same kW size can have different payback.
Site survey
Evidence to request for a Faisalabad roof
Use your own bill, roof photographs and operating schedule to turn these local checks into a written design. Ask for the evidence behind each proposal before comparing total prices.
Measure a working shift and a shutdown day
Request interval load measurements during a representative production day and a closed day, identified by date and meter. Check motor starts, phase loading and generator interlocks separately. A shop closed on sunny afternoons cannot use the same direct-use assumption as a continuously running factory.
Check sheet-roof fixing points and service access
For an industrial shed, have the survey identify purlins, roof-sheet condition and anchor locations rather than rely on roof dimensions. Include safe maintenance access and a soiling inspection plan if nearby work produces dust or smoke. Keep structural repairs as explicit quote lines.
A comparison to make before you buy
For a Canal Road workshop running one daytime shift, request one design based on measured minimum daytime demand and another that adds modules mainly for exports. Compare weekday and closed-day exports and retain the actual FESCO tariff category. The residential estimate table is an initial reference, not a factory tariff or motor-design calculation.
Quote checklist
Before you sign a Faisalabad solar quote
Keep every installer on the same scope. Otherwise a cheaper quote may simply be missing protection gear, stronger mounting, monitoring, battery wiring, or FESCO paperwork.
1
Confirm the FESCO filing scope, fees, drawings, testing, inspection, and bidirectional meter timeline.
2
Ask for panel brand, exact model, wattage, serial verification, product warranty, and performance warranty.
3
Require inverter make, model, warranty channel, monitoring access, surge protection, earthing, and breaker details.
4
Separate panels, inverter, mounting, protection gear, battery, labor, and net-billing filing into line items.
5
Ask Faisalabad installers for load segregation, three-phase inverter sizing, protection coordination, earthing, and whether the quote includes FESCO documentation.
FAQ
Faisalabad solar calculator questions
Answers to local planning questions before you request a quote.
How should a Faisalabad commercial site estimate direct use?
Record machine schedules, interval demand on working and closed days, and the actual FESCO tariff category. Monthly units alone do not reveal daytime self-consumption.
Is roof area enough to approve an industrial shed for solar?
Check roof sheets, purlins, anchors, wind loading and safe access as well. Keep structural repairs separate from the standard solar package.
Official sources
Verify the application and generation assumptions
Use the original utility sources for application rules, fees and approval steps. The sun-hours and price bands on this page are this site's planning assumptions; they are not an official tariff or a measured local yield dataset.
FESCO official net-billing portal
PITC lists FESCO among its supported utilities and links applications, tracking, NEPRA regulations, contact information and transformer checks. Read the current notices before a new application or capacity change.
Check monthly yield in Global Solar Atlas
Select your roof's location and compare monthly PVOUT for the proposed orientation and tilt. The Atlas model excludes building and vegetation shade, so a local shade survey is still needed. Its kWh/kWp yield is a different quantity from this calculator's peak-sun-hour input.
