sukhera advocates for energy sector reforms in Pakistan
ISLAMABAD: Pakistani solar technology company SkyElectric has successfully passed the first phase of the Japan Electrical Safety & Environment Technology Laboratories (JET) testing program, a crucial milestone toward entering the Japanese market. At a joint press conference on Tuesday, SkyElectric’s CEO and co-founder, Amin Sukhera, and COO, Zeeshan Ahmad, announced the breakthrough. Sukhera revealed that the company has developed a cutting-edge inverter tailored for Japanese consumers and expressed confidence that it would receive final approval within six months, allowing SkyElectric to secure contracts in Japan.
Sukhera also advocated for energy sector reforms in Pakistan, including a revised power tariff structure that differentiates between on-grid and off-grid solar usage. He suggested replacing the hybrid solar system with a net metering system for long-term viability and proposed community-based solar systems for groups of 200 households. He stressed the need for government intervention to address Pakistan’s energy crisis and recommended removing the 51% taxes and duties on imported batteries for solar systems.
Commenting on the achievement, Sukhera stated, “The successful completion of the first phase of JET underscores the exceptional quality and reliability of our products.” COO Zeeshan Ahmad added, “Entering the Japanese market is a strategic priority for SkyElectric, enhancing our global reputation as a leading provider of innovative solar energy solutions.”
