REGIONALDawn (Pakistan)Pakistan’s solar boom shielding country from Hormuz disruptions: study

A recent study shows that Pakistan's rapid expansion of solar energy is helping the country lessen the effects of supply disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. This development is important because it lowers Pakistan's reliance on imported fossil fuels vulnerable to regional tensions. The solar boom supports Pakistan's energy security and could influence its economic stability amid regional uncertainties.
