RAWALPINDI: CEO, Tesla Technologies Aamir Hussain Sunday said that Pakistan has great potential for exporting solar panels to European and African markets which would boosts country economy.
Following the European Union granted Technischer Uberwachungs Verein TUV (a German Technical Association) certificate to a Pakistani solar panel manufacturing company Tesla Technologies, a number of European Union and African countries have placed export orders for exporting Pakistani manufactured solar panel to these countries, said CEO of Tesla Technologies Aamir Hussain while talking to the journalists here in a during a press conference.
Members of Chamber of Commerce and Industry Sheikh Nadeem, Sheikh Mohammad Ilyas, Sayed Asif Ali, Abid Hussain and others from different cities also expressed their deep satisfaction over these export orders from European Union and African countries saying the economy of Pakistan will get big help to revive itself after the country was granted TUV certificate by European union.
Terming the grant of TUV certificate to Tesla Technologies by EU, they said this milestone achievement would open a new era of opportunities for Pakistani quality products to gain wide acceptance in European markets. They also expressed deep concerns over what they said the EU certified Pakistani manufacturing solar panel were yet to attract local government’s attention while a number of export orders were received daily from EU and African countries for exporting them high quality same products. “ Our government is signing MoUs with China and other countries to import the solar panels which could not win over the same Pakistani manufactured products in EU markets”, they added.
Aamir Hussain further said, “We can locally develop the complete solar energy system to help reduce the shortage of electricity from the country but lack the trust of government which should now be conferred to us by our policy makers and leaders after having TUV certificate by EU”.
In this way, he mentioned, we would not only be able to safe huge amounts of import bills but also benefited by the great export potential of solar energy system in international markets, including Middle East, Europe, African countries, Arabs and United States.
He told that Punjab Minister for Mineral Development and Energy Mr. Sher Ali Khan, inaugurated the Tesla Solar panel production plant lat year on 23 July and with the passage of just 10 months we have won the international trust with regard to high quality and efficiency. Manufacturing the solar panels locally will help reduce the prices of the Solar systems, making it possible for Solar users to buy A grade quality Mono and Poly panels at an affordable cost.
Other than lowering the cost of solar panels, local manufacturing will also help reduce the foreign exchange being spent in import of Solar panels from other countries, develop indigenised solar technologies, create employment in Pakistan and reduce load shedding.
Members of chamber of commerce and industry also stressed upon the government to develop government-private sector partnership to over come the crises like in the energy sector. They also admired Tesla industries, especially Mr. Amir Hussain and his team for taking the initiative of producing the cheapest and most viable solution to cope with the current energy situation in Pakistan.
They said TUV certificate granted by EU to Tesla Industries of Pakistan was a milestone as the export of solar panels will benefit our economy and generation of employment opportunities too. G.M. Tesla Ch. Tanveer Ahmed Janjua, G.M. Production Khalid Mehmood Khan, Export Manager Syed Zulfiqar Hussain Shah and Ejazuddin Qadri were also present on the occasion.
