Energy is the backbone of every business, but in Pakistan, it’s often the biggest challenge too. From unpredictable power outages to soaring electricity prices, industries have long struggled to keep operations stable and costs in check. But that’s beginning to change. A quiet revolution is taking place, one powered by solar energy and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). And at the forefront of this transformation is NRTC Energies, driving sustainable change across Pakistan’s industrial sector.
A remarkable example of progress is NRTC Energies’ 602 kWh BESS project for Abtex Mills in Hyderabad’s spinning sector, one of the first of its kind in Pakistan. This installation is redefining how industries manage their power. By integrating energy storage, Abtex Mills can now operate continuously without disruptions caused by grid instability or power shortages. It’s not just about energy backup, it’s about ensuring productivity, cost savings, and sustainability all at once.
In simple terms, a Battery Energy Storage System stores electricity for later use. Think of it as a power bank, but on a much larger industrial scale.
It captures excess energy generated by solar panels during the day and releases it when needed, during peak hours, grid failures, or at night when production is still running.
In Pakistan’s industrial landscape, this technology is a game-changer.
Here’s how BESS helps industries like Abtex Mills operate smarter and more efficiently:
Pakistan is experiencing a solar surge like never before. According to Reuters, solar energy contributed over 25% of the country’s electricity mix in early 2025, a record high. Imports of lithium-ion battery systems are also rising sharply, with projections that Pakistan’s BESS capacity could exceed 8 GWh by 2030.
This means industries are no longer waiting for the grid to catch up, they’re leading the change themselves.
And that’s exactly what NRTC Energies is helping them do.
The BESS installation at Abtex Mills is a testament to how innovation can reshape industrial performance.
The project ensures uninterrupted power, optimized energy use, and reduced costs, allowing the textile facility to maintain full productivity — even during load-shedding or grid instability.
For industries where even a minute of downtime means massive losses, NRTC Energies provides the peace of mind that comes from reliable, clean, and consistent energy.
Let’s face it, electricity tariffs in Pakistan are among the highest in the region. In recent years, industrial power costs have climbed by over 150%, putting pressure on manufacturers to find sustainable alternatives.
That’s why now is the perfect time for industries to invest in solar with storage. With falling global prices of solar components and increasing government focus on renewable energy, the payback potential has never been better.
For forward-thinking businesses, this isn’t just about going green, it’s about staying competitive.
At NRTC Energies, we believe in solutions that go beyond installation. We partner with businesses to design energy systems that are efficient, reliable, and future-ready.
From consultation and system design to installation and maintenance, our team ensures every project delivers maximum performance and long-term value.
Whether it’s powering a large-scale mill, a manufacturing plant, or a commercial facility, we make the transition to renewable energy simple, seamless, and sustainable.
Backed by NRTC’s decades of leadership in security and telecom, we stepped into the solar industry with a mission: to help solve Pakistan’s energy crisis with smart, sustainable power. Today, we make solar energy accessible, affordable, and reliable for homes, businesses, industries, and farms across the country.
