      <title>Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s free solar system initiative draws over 1.6 mln registrations</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330401460/khyber-pakhtunkhwas-free-solar-system-initiative-draws-over-16-mln-registrations</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s free solar system scheme has garnered significant interest, attracting more than 1.6 million registrations, as reported by the provincial energy department.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Under this initiative, 130,000 &lt;a href="https://english.aaj.tv/news/30332776"&gt;eligible&lt;/a&gt; participants will receive solar power systems, with 65,000 beneficiaries selected in each of the two phases.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The program is primarily aimed at individuals registered under the Benazir Income Support Program (&lt;a href="https://english.aaj.tv/news/30358606/can-damage-to-solar-panels-release-toxic-chemicals"&gt;BISP&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Officials noted that consumers using up to 100 &lt;a href="https://english.aaj.tv/news/30353813/anti-dust-solar-panel-launched-by-chinese-company-longi"&gt;electricity&lt;/a&gt; units per month are eligible for a 50% subsidy on the solar systems, with the total cost of each system estimated at around Rs200,000.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A scrutiny process will commence following the registration deadline to ensure eligibility and facilitate the distribution of the systems.&lt;/p&gt;
