Excellent…so nice to see Pak spending money on development while India spending money on weapons
These types of Solar panels are not cost effective and yield very low outputs, moreover they are vulnerable to damage caused extreme weather conditions i.e Hail storms and strong winds which tear apart the panels from the ground. So their life expectancy is very short
Most of these sort of panels are installed in very small proportions around the world for these reasons.
instead Solar thermal glass panels are gain much support are are popular and durable as well, but those are very costly to develop and maintain.
