How panel prices are quoted
Dealers quote panels per watt. To get the price of one panel, or "plate", multiply the rate by the wattage: a 585 W panel at Rs 41.5 per watt is Rs 24,278. To get the price of the panels for a system, multiply by the system size: 5 kW of panels at Rs 41.5 is about Rs 2.2 lakh.
Rates move with the exchange rate, shipping and stock in the market, sometimes within the same week. The table above is a survey of dealer listings in November 2026, not a quotation.
What you are paying for
Cell technology. Current stock is mostly N-type TOPCon, which is more efficient and loses less output in heat than the older P-type PERC panels. Older P-type stock is cheaper per watt.
Grade and documents. A-grade panels with import documents carry the manufacturer's product and performance warranty. Ask for the serial numbers and check them with the manufacturer.
Wattage. Higher-wattage panels need fewer mounting points and less roof for the same output. Most Tier-1 panels sold now are in the 580 to 620 W range.
Bifacial or not. Bifacial panels also collect light on the back. The gain is real on raised structures over a light-coloured roof and small on a low structure.
Panels per kW
| System | Panels of 585 W | Roof needed |
|---|---|---|
| 3 kW | 6 | about 216 sq ft |
| 5 kW | 9 | about 324 sq ft |
| 10 kW | 18 | about 648 sq ft |
| 15 kW | 26 | about 936 sq ft |
| 20 kW | 35 | about 1,260 sq ft |
Roof area allows about 36 square feet per panel, including the gaps between rows.
From panel price to system price
Panels are close to half of an on-grid system. The rest is the inverter, the structure, cabling and protection, and installation. For complete system prices by size, see solar system price in Pakistan, or build your own in the cost calculator by choosing the panel brand.
