Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to Solarize 124 Hospitals, Says Health Advisor Johar Nigar

PESHAWAR: The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government announces plans to solarize 124 hospitals across the province, aiming to enhance healthcare services and reduce energy costs.

Health Advisor Johar Nigar revealed the initiative during a press briefing, emphasizing the importance of sustainable energy in improving healthcare infrastructure. He stated, “This project will not only provide reliable energy to our hospitals but also contribute to the province’s commitment to renewable energy sources.” The solarization project is part of a broader strategy to modernize health facilities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

This initiative is expected to significantly impact the healthcare sector by ensuring uninterrupted power supply, especially in remote areas where energy shortages are common. It aligns with the provincial government’s efforts to promote green energy and reduce reliance on fossil fuels, ultimately benefiting the local population.

Next steps include the finalization of contracts with solar energy providers and the establishment of a timeline for the project’s implementation. The provincial government aims to complete the solarization process within the next year, with further expansions planned based on the project’s success.
