ISLAMABAD: Quaid-e-Azam Solar Park (QSP) has failed to achieve its objectives as electricity is being generated just 18 MW against the capacity of 100 MW. According to reports, the government of Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) has launched the Quaid-e-Azam Solar Park project with the cost of billions of rupees to end the power cuts in the country. This project was planned to generate approximately 1,000 MW of electricity and 100 MW in first phase. Now the government has decided to sale this project. When Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif inaugurated this project, it was generating about 50 MW of power on daily basis and the government sources claimed that approximately 80 MW electricity would be generated soon. But after sometimes, the project did not show remarkable performance and now it is generating only 18 MW. The sources said that this problem is created due to solar plates used in this project, which are of low quality. Some researchers are of the view that mercury of the area should be 45 centigrade for the best performance of the solar power. A researcher said, “If mercury has increased as its performance would be affected”. The sources concluded by saying, “The government has planned to sale out this project to facilitate its blue-eyed persons”.
