About the CM Punjab Free Solar Panel Scheme Eligibility Checker 2026 (Roshan Gharana)

Free CM Punjab Solar Scheme Eligibility Checker 2026 verified against the official Government of Punjab portal at cmsolarscheme.punjab.gov.pk (all FAQ items and Eligibility tab read verbatim June 29 2026). The Chief Minister Punjab Free Solar Panel Scheme led by CM Maryam Nawaz Shareef gives up to 100,000 free solar systems to qualifying poor households across all Punjab districts through transparent computerized balloting. This checker covers every official eligibility rule in one form. Monthly consumption check: up to 200 units per month (based on the June 2024 baseline bill per the official portal). Sanctioned load check: up to 2 kW only.

Exclusion checks: electricity theft history, defective meter status, multiple meters at single residence, more than 3 late payments in last 12 months. System size verdict per the official FAQ: 0 to 100 units monthly qualifies for a 550-Watt standalone solar system; 101 to 200 units monthly qualifies for a 1100-Watt (1.1 kW) standalone solar system. Both system sizes include solar panels, inverter, basic mounting and installation by government-assigned authorized vendors, all free of cost to the consumer. The checker also explains the 6-stage scheme process (portal registration, add details, automated eligibility check, computerized balloting, physical verification by government team, free installation), shows the SMS registration channel (send bill reference + CNIC to 8800 for users without internet access), and links to the conventional bank solar financing alternatives (Bank Alfalah Green Energy, HBL Solar, Meezan Solar, UBL LIP) for users who do not qualify for the free scheme. As of June 2026 the current registration cycle is closed per the official portal banner; this checker is most useful for pre-screening so you can register immediately when the next balloting cycle opens. Indicative only. Final eligibility is decided by Punjab government computerized balloting and post-balloting physical verification.
