About Solar Connect

Building Pakistan's Solar Future Together

We're on a mission to accelerate Pakistan's solar energy transition by creating the most trusted, transparent, and efficient marketplace for solar professionals.

Mission & Vision

Our Mission

To empower Pakistan's solar ecosystem by providing a transparent, secure, and efficient marketplace that connects certified installers, trusted brands, and shopkeepers — enabling faster adoption of renewable energy across the nation.

We believe every Pakistani household and business deserves access to clean, affordable solar energy — and that starts with a trustworthy professional network.

Our Vision

To become South Asia's leading solar marketplace — a platform where quality, trust, and technology drive the clean energy revolution. We envision a Pakistan where solar power is accessible, affordable, and managed through world-class digital infrastructure.

By 2030, we aim to facilitate over 1 million solar installations, creating thousands of livelihoods in Pakistan's growing green economy.

From idea to Pakistan's #1 solar platform

What started as a simple idea to connect solar installers with customers evolved into a full-fledged marketplace transforming Pakistan's renewable energy landscape.

2020

The Idea Is Born

Founders Bilal Ahmed and Zubair Malik — both solar industry veterans — identify a critical gap: Pakistan's solar market is fragmented, trust is low, and payments are insecure. Solar Connect is conceived over a whiteboard session in Karachi.

2021

Beta Launch in Karachi

Solar Connect launches a closed beta with 50 installers and 20 shopkeepers in Karachi. The escrow payment system processes its first ₨1 million in transactions. Early users report 40% faster job completion compared to traditional methods.

2023

National Expansion

Platform expands to Lahore, Islamabad, and Peshawar. Brand portal launches, enabling solar manufacturers to manage their installer networks digitally for the first time. KYC verification system processes 500+ applications per month.

2025

₨1 Billion Milestone

Solar Connect crosses ₨1 billion in total payments processed. The platform now covers 25+ cities, hosts 1,000+ verified installers, and has facilitated over 3,000 successful solar installations across Pakistan.

2026
