Clean Energy Installations PV expertise in demand in Pakistan

Stephen Munday, managing director of Clean Energy Installations, recently held discussions with Chandhry Abdul Majid, Prime Minister of Azad Jammu & Kashmir (AJK), about solar photovoltaics (PV) strategy in the North-East region of Pakistan.

Munday’s meetings with senior AJK officials took place as severe energy shortages across Pakistan threaten to cripple the country’s economic development. Increasing diesel costs and recurring power outages are forcing people across the region to turn to sustainable technologies.

Whilst in Pakistan, Munday also met informally with the owners of Azad Textile Mills, the largest private sector employer in Kashmir, who were seeking advice regarding a 5MW solar PV installation.

Clean Energy Installations is an independent supplier and installer of solar PV panels to domestic and commercial clients. The company was established in 1997.

Munday believes the case for solar energy in AJK is compelling. “Ongoing development in the technology has brought the cost of solar PV modules right down,” he said, “Once a niche concept; they’re now the obvious choice. Unlike diesel generators, so ubiquitous in AJK, they don’t require endless supplies of expensive fuel, nor do they create pollution. They’re also quiet, which diesel generators definitely aren’t. With solar energy, people across AJK and the wider region wouldn’t have to limit themselves to consuming energy purely for the essentials. Solar PV offers a genuine improvement in their quality of life.”

According to the International Energy Agency, the global demand for energy will grow by approximately 60 per cent by 2030.

Heat pumps provided by Clean Energy Installations replace boilers and can supply homes with all the heating and hot water they need.

Clean Energy Installations recognises that construction and specialist contractor industries contribute to the environmental footprint of development projects. With this in mind, it mitigates the impact of its work through the three Rs – reduce, reuse and recycle. 

The team at Clean Energy Installations comprises experienced and fully trained electricians, installers, roofers and project managers. The company has close links with manufacturers and suppliers and provides regular training for its staff. This keeps it at the forefront of advances in the solar industry and certified to install all types of systems to a wide variety of clients.

Clean Energy Installations - backgrounder

Clean Energy Installations is an independent supplier and installer of heat pumps and solar photovoltaic (PV) panels. Working across the Midlands and the southern counties, it provides energy efficient services to homes, businesses, agricultural premises, schools and churches.

Clean Energy Installations works with customers throughout every stage of every project - from feasibility studies and design to installation and post project support.

Heat pumps provided by Clean Energy Installations can supply homes with all the heating and hot water they need. Completely replacing boilers, they can reduce heating and hot water bills by up to 50 per cent.

Clean Energy Installations offer two types of heat pumps - ground source and air source.

A ground source heat pump transforms land into an underground heat collector. Pipework buried just one meter underground absorbs thermal energy and transfers it into the home, meeting all its heating and hot water needs. With the air source option, a heat pump is placed outside the home. Here it harnesses heat from the outside air, whatever the temperature.

PV systems installed by Clean Energy Installations are bespoke to every client. They maximise efficiency and return on investment. Solar panel installation can be either on-roof, in-roof, or ground-mounted. Designs range from a 1.5 kWp system to power a family home to a 50 kWp system or more for commercial clients.
