These planning numbers use LESCO city assumptions, 5.3 peak-sun hours per day, a 75% performance ratio, Rs. 60/unit retail value, and Rs. 11/unit export credit. Final quotes should still be verified by site survey.

Local sizing notes
What changes in Lahore
Lahore's 5.3 peak-sun-hour assumption is a balanced design input for DHA, Gulberg, Johar Town, Model Town, Bahria Town, and surrounding LESCO areas.
Dust, water-tank shade, mumty shade, and neighboring walls can reduce real output, so ask installers for a shade map and string layout instead of accepting only a headline kW size.

Net billing
LESCO savings logic
For LESCO net billing, compare self-consumed units and exported units separately. The fastest payback usually comes from running ACs, pumps, laundry, and office loads during solar hours.
The calculator separates direct savings from export credit because imported units and exported units have different cash values. This is why two Lahore homes with the same kW size can have different payback.
Quote checklist
Before you sign a Lahore 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 LESCO paperwork.
1
Confirm the LESCO 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 Lahore installers to itemize panels, inverter model, DC/AC protection, earthing, mounting gauge, monitoring, and LESCO filing charges on separate quote lines.
FAQ
Lahore solar calculator questions
Short answers for the searches people make before they request quotes.
How many peak sun hours should I use for Lahore?
Use 5.3 peak-sun hours per day as a planning assumption, then adjust for shade, roof orientation, dust, and seasonal variation.
Is a hybrid solar system worth it in Lahore?
Hybrid is often worth comparing when evening backup matters. On-grid is cheaper, but a hybrid inverter and battery can improve self-consumption and keep critical loads running during outages.
