CM Punjab Free Solar Panel Scheme 2026: 100,000 Free Systems for 0–200 Unit Consumers
How The Public Will Get A Free Solar Panel System. Under the CM Punjab Free Solar Panel Scheme, 100,000 domestic consumers in Punjab using 0–200 electricity units per month receive the system completely free — 550W for 0–100 units and 1,100W for 101–200 units. Registration closed on 5 January 2025; after computerized balloting selected 94,483 consumers in early 2025, the scheme was extended to December 2026 and installations are ongoing.
The Punjab government provides these solar systems completely free. Therefore, there are no installments and no bank payments. In the first phase, computerized balloting selected 94,483 consumers in early 2025 from over 800,000 applicants. Then the 2026 extension added about 94,000 more systems until December 2026. As a result, installations are ongoing across Punjab, and teams had installed around 90,000 systems by June 2026.
The scheme covers Punjab domestic consumers who used 0–200 electricity units per month (sanctioned load up to 2kW), based on the June 2024 bill. To register, applicants sent their electricity bill reference number, a space, and their CNIC number by SMS to 8800, or applied through the official CM Punjab Free Solar Scheme portal. Registration closed on 5 January 2025 — no new applications are accepted in 2026.
The government verified eligibility before the balloting. It excluded consumers involved in electricity theft. The government also rejected applicants with defective meters or more than one meter at a single premises. It also rejected consumers with more than three late bill payments in the last 12 months.
Consumers pay nothing. The Punjab government bears the full cost of the solar system and its installation. So there are no installments, no interest, and no payments through the Bank of Punjab or any other bank.
If the balloting selected you, wait for the installation team to contact you. Do not pay anyone who promises a system or faster installation. Also, beware of fake websites claiming that new registration is open. Registration closed on 5 January 2025, and the government has not announced any new window for 2026.
عوام کو مفت سولر پینل سسٹم کیسے ملے گا؟
پنجاب حکومت کی مفت سولر پینل اسکیم کے تحت 0 سے 200 یونٹ بجلی استعمال کرنے والے 1 لاکھ گھریلو صارفین کو مفت سولر سسٹم دیے جا رہے ہیں۔ رجسٹریشن 5 جنوری 2025 کو بند ہو چکی ہے اور 2026 میں تنصیب کا عمل جاری ہے۔
سولر سسٹم مکمل طور پر مفت ہے، اس کی کوئی قسط یا بینک ادائیگی نہیں ہے۔ 2026 میں اسکیم کو دسمبر 2026 تک بڑھا دیا گیا ہے اور منتخب صارفین کے ہاں تنصیب جاری ہے۔
یہ اسکیم پنجاب کے ان گھریلو صارفین کے لیے ہے جو ماہانہ 0 سے 200 یونٹ بجلی استعمال کرتے ہیں۔ رجسٹریشن کے لیے بجلی کے بل کا ریفرنس نمبر اور شناختی کارڈ نمبر 8800 پر ایس ایم ایس کیا گیا تھا۔
صارفین کو کوئی رقم ادا نہیں کرنی، سسٹم اور تنصیب کا مکمل خرچ پنجاب حکومت برداشت کرتی ہے۔

The Systems Are 100% Free — No Loans Needed
The CM Punjab Free Solar Panel Scheme is a free grant, not a loan. There are no interest-free loans, no installments, and no 25% upfront payment. Anyone asking for money to register you for the scheme or offering a solar loan is running a scam.

8800 SMS Registration for the Free Solar Panel System (Now Closed)
8800 was the official SMS number for registration. Applicants sent their bill reference number, a space, and their CNIC number to 8800. However, registration closed on 5 January 2025. So the 8800 SMS service no longer accepts new applications. Installations for the already-selected consumers are ongoing in 2026.
8800 رجسٹریشن کا سرکاری ایس ایم ایس نمبر تھا جو 5 جنوری 2025 کو بند ہو چکا ہے۔ نئی درخواستیں قبول نہیں کی جا رہیں۔
