Utilisation of Abundant Wind and Solar Resources of Baluchistan

Of late Sharif International has been spanning the expanses of Baluchistan from Dasht near the Iran border to Ormara. Hybrid system are very successful in Baluchistan areas bordering the seashore due to their dual potential. The inclusion of an appropriate wind turbine helps to drive down the price of the whole system dramatically. Many different installations go to our credit which have been designed, procured, installed and commissioned by Sharif International.

The Sun Finally Dawns on Fishing Communities in Sindh

Sharif International is the partner of choice with major international donors and NGOs working for the uplift of impoverished rural communities. One such area is the huge wetland adjacent to Keti Bandar and Shahbandar. These folks have never witnessed lighting in their huts other than portables torches. The advent of lates solar home kits from Sharif International in their huts is a dawn of a bright new era. Two of the pics highlight fabrication of solar module frames and wind turbine masts at our Karachi office. Enjoy these captivating moments from the Wetlands!

Multan Cantonment Park Goes Green!

One of the best and most effective energy conservation is the solar powered application of street/garden lights. One such installation by Sharif INternational is at Multan Cantonment Park. Here, numerous garden and street lights have been installed by Sharif International. Have a glimpse of these great eco friendly lights right here.

Hybrid Systems in the Heart of Himalayas

A great experience full of enjoyable moments for us was the installation of hybrid systems amidst lofty snow capped mountains in the remote North of Pakistan. One of the sites was Baroghil – Lashkar Gaz. See the joy of people on seeing the house light up in the middle of nowhere.

Cholistan Villages Brightening Up through Solar Home Kits

Seeing the smiling faces of desert folk in the Cholistan after their huts were lightened up with solar power was the ultimate achievement of Sharif International. As part of this campaign that lasted two months, 140 remote homes in different parts of cholistan were electrified by Sharif International on behalf of the Cholistan Development Authority. The home kit included 5-6 CFLs, DC Fan and mobile charger attachments. Quality Centrosolar PV modules from Germany are the driving force behind these systems.

The Dir Operations explained the working principle of VFDs and the energy huge saving potential for the industrial sector that they harness. Another star of the show was Mr. Light HID Lighting Saver. The Honourable Minister took a keen interest in Mr. Light and was delighted to know that it could save more than 38% electricity when installed on HPS street lamps. The MD ENERCON Mr. Faridullah Khan gave a presentation on this subject to the delegation. He emphasised that more than 3 MW of electricity can be saved just by implementation of Mr. Light in Islamabad Street Lights alone. To witness the event some pictures are here for conservation enthusiasts.

DHA Creek Karachi – Solar Street Light Installation

Sharif International was contacted to install a demonstration solar street light in the DHA Karachi Creek Area to assess its suitability and aesthetics. An LVD based solar street light (40 Watts x 2) was erected on the 11th of March 2009. All high ranking officials from DHA Karachi were present to witness the occasion.

All those present noticed the crisp white light and better illumination of hi-tech 80 Watts LVD lighting compared to the 250 Watts HPS lamps installed right across the road. In reality the newly introduced LVD lighting technology boasts of almost 40% energy conservation compared to HPS for similar or better illumination and a much better CRI.

Here’s a pictorial..
