How long does a residential solar installation take?

A typical 5–10 kW residential system is installed and commissioned within 2–3 days once materials are on site. The net-metering application process with the DISCO typically takes 4–8 weeks.

Can I add batteries later?

Yes — we design all our solar systems to be battery-ready. Hybrid inverters can be specified from the outset, or a battery system added to an existing installation.

What happens to my solar during a grid outage?

A standard grid-tied inverter shuts down during outages for safety reasons. Backup functionality requires a hybrid inverter and battery system — which we can design and install.

Solar

Residential, Commercial & Industrial, Agricultural and Utility Scale solar PV Projects

Solar PV is the fastest-growing energy technology in Pakistan — but dependable power requires more than panels on a roof. RS engineers the complete solar system around your load profile, grid connection, structural requirements and long-term performance objectives.

the right solar system

Off-Grid Solar

Independent power for locations without reliable grid access or where energy independence is the priority.

Solar panels, hybrid inverter and battery storage work together without a utility connection
Suitable for remote homes, farms, telecom sites and isolated facilities
Battery capacity is sized for night-time loads and the required backup autonomy

On-Grid Solar

A cost-effective grid-connected system that maximises daytime solar consumption and export value.

Grid-tied inverter supplies solar power directly to connected loads during daylight
Excess generation can be exported through the applicable net-billing or net-metering arrangement
Best suited to homes, businesses and sites with a stable utility connection and daytime demand

Hybrid Solar

Flexible solar plus grid and battery backup for lower bills and continuity during outages.

Smartly combines solar, grid and battery power according to load, tariff and battery state
Keeps selected critical loads running during loadshedding and grid interruptions
Supports peak shaving, time-of-use optimisation and future battery expansion

Key Benefits

Engineered systems deliver higher energy yield than oversized commodity installs

Proper protection prevents inverter and panel damage

Net-billing / net-metering design maximises financial return

Battery-ready designs support future storage addition

Monitoring enables early fault detection
